The Green BardIt occurs to me that there are a couple characters that may or may not have died yet in our story, but they are close enough to being undead, that it doesn’t really matter. I am referring to Melisandre and Bloodraven, of course. I think I might call them wraiths. Some may call them half-zombies. […]
The Lemongate theory asserts that Daenerys Targaryen’s early years may have occurred in Tyrosh, not Braavos, despite her memories suggesting otherwise. The theory critiques inconsistencies in climate-related details and explores potential narrative connections to broader story arcs in George R.R.

Now, wait, before you click away because Mat and Tywin are not at all the same, and HOW DARE YOU Green Bard to compare them?!?! First of all, I agree with you. Let me assuage your fears. Every once in a while an author creates an intriguing character but something goes awry along the way. […]

Crying Cockles and Mussels, Alive, Alive, Oh! I play this song and other folk songs with my actual Irish Band: The Bold O’Donohughs. […]
A Northern House in the South In Season 1, Episode 4 of House of the Dragon, we see Willem Blackwood kill Jerrel Bracken after a young Princess Rhaenyra and an older Jerrel had poked fun at Blackwood. I was watching a Joe Magician video about that scene today and it reminded me that I wanted […]
I am as late as you can be with this, because I am releasing probably after the debut of Episode 1 of the second season, but, better late than never! I already considered the magic and dragon themes seen on screen from the first five episodes of HotD Season 1, so this episode covers episodes […]
This episode focuses on Rhaegal, Viserion, and Quentyn Martell, when Dany shows the dragons to Quentyn, and continuing with his ill-fated attempt at becoming a dragon rider.
The Bard’s Truth, Episode 7.5 I recently mentioned in a twitter post on #ASongofMadness that I was voting for Gilly, on account of her hidden dragon blood. I got some feedback for @lizdated that she had never heard of that idea, asking if I have a video of that theory! Well, no, I didn’t. I […]
