08 Of Blood and fire (HotD season 1 discussion w/ Obie)

In this episode we welcome our first guest, Obie, to discuss season 1 of House of the Dragon ahead of the season 2 premiere. 

Together we recap season 1 and discuss how it works as an adaptation of Fire & Blood. We also discuss reproductive rights in Sweden, France, and Aruba, a queen who was a king, and the real life Aegon the Conqueror (but Frankish).

Join us in the HotD hype!
