When the Lhazareen pay the highest price in the Dothraki violent exchange, Daenerys makes a choice: Raping the women and children won't be among the spoils of the war. Madeleine joins us to analyze this turning point in Dany's character that sets the trajectory of her story, while bringing insights from historical popular romance tropes. ---- Eliana's twitter: https://twitter.com/arhythmetric Eliana's reddit account: https://www.reddit.com/user/glass_table_girl Eliana's blog: https://themanyfacedblog.wordpress.com/ Chloe's twitter: https://twitter.com/liesandarbor Chloe's blog: liesandarborgold.com Intro by Anton Langhage

New year, new book, same old Cersei (pretending to be #New for the High Septon). Margo helps us retrace the steps of Cersei's life and unpack the complexities of her familial and romantic relationships (which are kind of one and the same at times). Where to find Margo https://x.com/King_Margosha https://bsky.app/profile/kingcersei.bsky.social References from Lo Essay: A MOST UNCOMMON WOMAN: Cersei Lannister's Gender Trouble Essay: Maidens, maidenheads, and the patriarchy- Virginity norms in ASOIAF Lo and Virginie's podcast, Ragman's Harbour Mentioned Quotes Susan Stryker definition: "I use [transgender] in this book to refer to people who move away from the gender they were assigned at birth, people who cross (trans-) the boundaries constructed by their culture to define and contain that gender. Some people move away from their birth-assigned gender because they feel strongly that they properly belong to another gender in which it would be better for them to live; others want to strike out toward some new location, some space not yet clearly defined or concretely occupied; still others simply feel the need to get away from the conventional expectations bound up with the gender that was initially put upon them. In any case, it is the movement across a socially imposed boundary away from an unchosen starting place- rather than any particular destination or mode of transition- that best characterizes the concept of ‘transgender' that I want to develop here." From Leslie Feinberg's Transgender Warriors: “Didn't Joan of Arc wear men's clothes?” I asked a friend over coffee in 1975. She had a graduate degree in history; I had barely squeaked through high school. I waited for her answer with great anticipation, but she dismissed my question with a wave of her hand. ”It was just armor.” She seemed so sure, but I couldn't let my question go. Joan of Arc was the only person associated with cross-dressing in history I'd grown up hearing about. I thought a great deal about my friend's answer. Was the story of Joan of Arc dressing in men's clothing merely legend? Was wearing armor significant? If a society strictly mandates only men can be warriors, isn't a woman military leader dressed in armor an example of cross-gendered expression?" ibid. : "No wonder you've passed as a man! This is such an anti-woman society,” a lesbian friend told me. To her, females passing as males are simply trying to escape women's oppression – period. She believes that once true equality is achieved in society, humankind will be genderless. I don't have a crystal ball, so I can't predict human behavior in a distant future. But I know what she's thinking – if we can build a more just society, people like me will cease to exist. She assumes that I am simply a product of oppression. Gee, thanks so much." From Alica Spencer-Hall and Spencer Gutt's Trans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography: "Marginalised identities are often written out of the historical record by those with the privilege of formulating “historical truth”. The Middle Ages is frequently viewed as a time “where men were men, women were women, everyone was the same race and practised the same faith, and no one was corrupted by technology, sexuality or democracy”. This is not how any medievalist worth their salt would put it. Disingenuous interrogation of the presence of trans people in history is rarely about the factual specifics of the past alone. If talking about trans lives is “anachronistic”, then “trans-ness [is] not an inextricable part of humanity or human diversity”. The transphobe's dream is an imaginary medieval past in which everyone knows their (gendered) place. Similar themes emerge in the usage of the Middle Ages by the alt-right and beyond: those who fantasize a past in which everyone who mattered was straight, cisgender, white, and Christian. White supremacists and fascists weaponize the Middle Ages to justify their hatred. ------ Eliana's twitter: https://twitter.com/arhythmetric Eliana's reddit account: https://www.reddit.com/user/glass_table_girl Eliana's blog: https://themanyfacedblog.wordpress.com/ Chloe's twitter: https://twitter.com/liesandarbor Chloe's blog: liesandarborgold.com Intro by Anton Langhage

Tune in for a very casual conversation with our friend Glidus on what to expect when you're expecting HOTD S2, what it's like to have brothers (idk), and spectacle in House of the Dragon - what does it take to adapt from pages of a history book to the screen, and just how does Ryan Condal do it?  check out Glidus' interview with Raya Golden on Tuf Voyaging Glidus plays both the good sport and an honorable girly gone canon in this episode. you can find him online at..... https://www.youtube.com/@Glidus https://www.youtube.com/@glimbus https://www.youtube.com/@MateriaYoutube https://x.com/NotGlidus  

We're back with UNLEASH THE D for season two of House of the Dragon. Tune in for a very casual unserious episode with a twist: this episode is BOOK SPOILER FREE (mostly), and will be the ONLY episode we post during the season that is book spoiler free. Chika comes along for the ride to tell us her opinions on that Dragon Show as someone who has not read the books. Chika shares her initial impressions on season one with us and reveals her alliances.   Where to find Chika on the Web -  https://twitter.com/ChikaSupreme https://twitter.com/ShoujoSundae https://linktr.ee/shoujosundae https://www.patreon.com/ShoujoSundae https://www.shoujosundae.com/

Here in the House of Canon, we're hard at work preparing the HOTD primer series that critics are calling "UNABASHEDLY GREAT" (Unleash the D S2) as well as getting ready for HOUSE OF THE DRAGON S2. No episode today - instead, enjoy a reveal of our first three UNLEASH THE D guests, as well as when you can look forward to hearing the episodes hit your streams. Buckle up - it's going to be a crazy (dragon) ride.   patreon.com/girlsgonecanon

Now available for the public!  Chloe and Eliana read another GRRM short story from the Thousand Worlds universe: Butterbumps—wait, no, Bitterblooms. A girl lost during deepwinter gets swept away by a magical woman to journey among the stars... or does she? Don't forget to check out "Suzanne" by Leonard Cohen, the song that inspired this story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76OOON5QYr0 --- Intro by Kevin MacLeod, "Fairytale Waltz"  

Top regrets of my life: Not splitting these Jon chapters to make more than two episodes, because WOW. What a ride. Griff decided to add an extra syllable to make himself a "griffin," once more. That's right, Jon Connington is back, and he's taking prisoners (it's his family). Welcome home, how's it feel to be back, strolling down memory lane? Well, Jon Con's got thoughts on that.

We have waited six years to finally get to this POV... but that's only half as much time as Jon Connington has been pretending to be dead. A lost lord finds himself as his hand count down his time left in the story.
