“The Rains of Castamere”: an LG&M Game of Thrones podcast with Steven Attewell and SEK

I’m not sure what to say that hasn’t been said — actually I am, and will, in an upcoming post (or posts) comparing Tyrion’s wedding to the one in this episode. So here’s Steven Attewell and I discussing “The Rains of Castamere.” Enjoy?

You can listen to the above podcast here.

Our very civilized discussion of the premiere (S03E01).

Fancy-talking about “Dark Wings, Dark Words” (S03E02).

Here we are blathering on about “Walk of Punishment” (S03E03).

Don’t watch — because you can’t — us discuss “And Now His Watch Has Ended” (S03E04).

The rudely interrupted first half of our discussion of “Kissed by Fire” (S03E05).

The second half of our discussion of religion in “Kissed by Fire” (S03E05).

In which we discuss “The Climb” sans spoilers (S03E06).

Belatedly, “The Bear and the Maiden Fair” (S03E07).

“Second Sons”: an LG&M podcast on Game of Thrones with Steven Attewell and SEK

We apologize for missing last week’s episode, but Google Plus had updated its “Hangouts” feature and we couldn’t find the new button. But it’s been found! Also, in this podcast we have a first: I’ve finally figured out how to incorporate images without making the resulting file too large for Youtube. So now if you’re watching the podcast, you’ll see the visuals we’re describing while we’re describing them. (At least mostly. I’m still experimenting with keeping the size down and the audio quality high. This is tougher than it looks.) In this episode we discuss making my students weep uncontrollably; the dynamics of the relationship between Tyrion and Sansa; the similarities between Dany and Walter White; the politics of Stannis Baratheon; and many other things beside. Enjoy!

Enjoy this fine podcast without the images I painstakingly inserted into it just for you.

Yet another LGM podcast: SEK and Attewell on Game of Thrones, “And Now His Watch Is Done”

Attewell is brilliant, as per usual; SEK is scattered, as per usual. Enjoy!

Us talking about it in the .mp3 of formats for them that prefer such.

SEK and Attewell, LG&M podcast-style, on Game of Thrones: “Dark Wings, Dark Words” (S03E02)

Or, another installment of “SEK yet again looks at everything that isn’t his webcam, while Race for the Iron Throne‘s Attewell just looks composed, only this time SEK also looks like a Soderberghian Smurf.” (He’s not doing himself any favors here.) This podcast discusses, among other things, gender and violence, sex and manipulation, time travel, Batman, and Attewell’s amazing ability to corral SEK’s dithering into almost topical blather. (Also, the punchline to that pointless joke SEK made can be found here. It may make its way into an argument eventually, but that day is not today.) Enjoy!
