The Gods of Tits and Wine, Jim and A.Ron, are back to review each week’s episode of HBO’s House of the Dragon and your feedback.
How difficult was it to claim Harrenhal in the book? And much Alys Rivers was there? And it’s really only that many paragraphs? I guess it’s a good thing we also have your feedback and some bonus readings on the dragon pit! This week’s reading: Daemon Takes Harrenhal: pg.412 through pg.413 Battle of the Burning…
This episode is excellent on rewatch. Daemon is interesting again. The Alicent vs. Rhaenyra showdown is superb. Simon Strong is the perfect addition to an already stellar cast.
Lets revisit Arryk Cargyll’s mission, recontextualize Aegon’s hissy fit and Otto’s scheming, and maybe splash in a little bit of Daemon that is shuffled around in the show as we cover the sections of Fire & Blood that are relevant to “Rhaenyra the Cruel.” This week’s reading: pg.428 p.2 through pg.430 p.3 and pg.431 p.2…
Is this the best Otto episode? Why is Aegon so watchable? Aemond’s rent-a-mommy scene is fantastic. Steve and Anthony are both feeling a bit greener than usual. That said, the promise of Alyn, Addam, and Hugh is exhilarating.

Jim & A.Ron are back for more of that HOTD action, this time with readings from Martin’s Targaryen history book, “Fire & Blood,” to match each episode of the season we just watched. This week’s reading: pg.414 p.3 through pg.418 p.1 and pg.422 p.2 through the end of pg.426 Next week’s reading: pg.428 p.2 through…
Now that House of the Dragon season 2 has ended, we’ve invited Maester Anthony to join us for our wrapup podcast so we can have talk all about what went right and what went wrong. Oh, and tapestries. He has gleaned vast knowledge of tapestries from his podcasting travails. Theme song: Game of Thrones (80’s…
After a harrowing encounter with Blood and Cheese, comedian Steve Ausburne is amped up for season 2. Anthony and Steve both love Rhaenys and are hopeful for a few lesser plotlines like Alyn and Aegon’s hapless goons. Follow Steve on instagram: @ausfest
The ravens have arrived from the roost. The mess they left behind is incredible. King Jimhaerys and Lord Commander A.Ron have some of the answers you seek. Who grabbed Otto? Can Ulf and Hugh be called upon to attack King’s Landing on their dragons? Ulf = Jar Jar? And get an update on what is dropping soon in the HOTD: House of the Dragon feed on Bald Move!
The season finale of House of the Dragon is here! King Jimhaerys and Lord Commander A.Ron gather the council to discuss the visions, lore, and characters. Whip out that crab claw for a “handy” map of the playing field. Get a breakdown of Daemon’s Weirwood-induced vision. And look to the future of season three!
