Harbour's Reader B- Brienne of Tarth

In this second episode of our series looking at the books, in an extremely shocking twist of event (not), we are analysing Brienne!

We're talking gender, the patriarchy, transphobia, toxic gender norms, heresy and Podrick Payne, Hyle Hunt and Jaime Lannister get a mention. So do Cercei and Catelyn, for different reasons.

We hope you like this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!

Tell your friends and even your barista about it, and if you like what you hear, leave us a firework of stars and rave about us in a review on your podcast app of choice.
