In this explosive episode, we see the consequences of war hit King's Landing hard. Food shortages lead to unrest among the common folk, and Team Black decides to take advantage. Rhaenyra and Mysaria hatch a clever plan to win hearts and minds by sending food to the starving people, all while spreading whispers about the Greens' indifference.Meanwhile, Aemond's trying to prove himself as a capable regent, but he's got his work cut out for him. He sends Ser Criston Cole marching towards Harrenhal, which... well, let's just say it might not be the smartest move.Over in Harrenhal, our boy Daymon is having a rough time. He's plagued by visions of his brother Viserys, and it's clear the guy's got some unresolved issues. But hey, at least he's got Alys Rivers to keep him company, right?Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

It's (not) a new podcast! Therefore, a great big welcome back to our dearest friend of the podcast, Lo the Lynx, who is also joined by our newest friend, Virginie! Be sure to check out their podcast, Ragman's Harbour. (Get it? Silent Sisters? Ragman's Harbour? We think we're funny.) In this episode, we take a look at Rhaenyra and Alicent's last-ditch effort to broker a peace deal through the lens of gender studies. Is the show being a little too simplistic and gender essentialist when it comes to who wants war and who wants peace? Our guests break it down for us. Then we deep dive into a very haunted Daemon's weirwood dream, where dreams, magic, and reality seem to blur together. And what's eating Daemon and Ser Criston Cole? Could it be actual guilt for respectively earning their lady love's displeasure? Things aren't going so well in the Green's camp, with Aegon ascending his drinking buddies to the King's Guard, Larys Strong ingratiating himself to the king, and Aemond losing his one safe space to be vulnerable. Finally, we turn our attention to Baela, Helaena, and Rhaena. One experiences the thrill of helping the war effort on dragonback, the other processes the death of her child, and the last is entrusted with safeguarding the youngest of Rhaenyra's children.

What doth it do Bros? Welcome back to Westeros for the third episode of House of the Dragon season 2. In part one of this episode, the realm is uneasy as war is beginning to seem inevitable. The Brackens and The Blackwoods square of in the Riverland's resulting in a massive battle, setting the stage for the importance of the region. Ser Criston Cole prepares for his first day as hand of the king and wouldn't ya know it, he is not prepared or equipped for the role AND he's late to his first meeting. Rhaenys informs Rhaenyra there may be on way to avoid war and that is her speaking directly with Alicent in an attempt to reason with her. Aegon teases the possibility of riding into war himself to prove that he's "a man"... Mysaria joins Rhaenyra's council. Meanwhile Rhaenyra sends all of her young children away with Rhaena along with 4 dragon eggs. Daemon makes it to Harrenhall and Ser Simon Strong swears fealty to Rhaenyra giving them rule over the region. Criston Cole avoids his duties as hand of the king and rides off into war with Gwayne, Alicent's brother. We see Rhaenys and Corlys discussing getting their own house in order as it seems more and more evident that war is finally upon us... All that and more in part 1 of our 2 part recap of HoTD!!

Reaction: 2024/06/23Breakdown: 2024/06/26 What does love look like in different cultures/houses? Why do we worship royalty/celebrity? Alicent Hightower escapes her reality by way of Ser Criston Cole, defying Otto Hightower's authority and denying her children love: so much so, Aemond Targaryen seeks it in the arms of a brothel madame (who looks strikingly familiar to her).

BACK LIKE WE NEVER LEFT! Our review of Season 2 Episode 1 of “House of the Dragon” Our takes: The Starks are truly a buzzkill but drippy - Ser Criston Cole is the #1 HOE in Westeros – The Abbott and Costello of Hitmen – We also give our ratings for the episode. #GameofThrones #HouseOfTheDragon #HOTD #GOT #TeamGreen #TeamBlack #Atlanta

Welcome to our second season installment of the House of the Dragon #dragonsyall recap show.  In this episode, we recap season 2 episode 1 of the series aptly titled "A Son For A Son" The episode dives into the history of Cregan Stark and Winterfell, Alicent getting into some interesting shenanigans with Ser Criston Cole and the infamous tragedy of the Targaryen family at the hands of Blood and Cheese. Thanks for live-tweeting and live-threading with us each week as we use the tag #dragonsyall  Music by: Sammus Hosted by: Jamie Broadnax, Angelica Monk and Ryanne Bennett Edited by: Jamie Broadnax

House of the Dragon season 2 begins on a somber note as Rhaenyra and her family(AKA The Blacks) mourn the loss of Lucerys after his death at the end of season 1. Meanwhile, Alicent and the Hightower family(The Greens) continue their plan to install Aegon as king and begin preparing for war. With each family hatching their plans while forces like Larys Strong and the white worm work in the shadows, the impending violence is imminent. Daemon's scheme to bring retribution for the blacks using the assassins "Blood" and "Cheese" is certain to have ripple effects throughout the season. Does the House of the Dragon season 2 premiere effectively set the stage? Tune in to hear our review, recap, and thoughts on these topics: Rhaenyra's reaction to Lucerys's death. Returning to Winterfell and the Wall for the first time since Game of Thrones ended in 2019. The tension between King Aegon and Otto Hightower. Varys Strong's schemes. Ethics with Ser Criston Cole. The tale of the treacherous "Blood" and "Cheese" AKA dumb assassins. This week's winner, loser, and wild card player. What we expect to see next. According to IMDB, "A Son for a Son" is described as: "As Alicent grows concerned by Aegon's Small Council, Rhaenyra arrives at a fateful decision."

We have an exciting one to bring you today as we compare Season 1 of House of the Dragon to its novel counterpart, Fire & Blood in its corresponding pages. We are covering the second to last paragraph on Page 350 through the second paragraph on Page 422. While this is not necessarily a spoiler alert since the vast majority of what we talk about from the book is seen on screen, if you haven't read the book and don't want to know how these passages play out on paper, this is your warning.   Stay with us as we discuss some of the notable changes that are found between Season 1 and the pages that align in Fire & Blood such as; Ser Criston Cole's relationship with Princess Rhaenyra, Queen Alicent and King Viserys' third son, King Viserys' health condition, Ser Vaemond Velaryon's fate, and Queen Rhaenyra's response to King Aegon II's terms.   With Chase & Josh highlighting key differences, providing a numeric grade for Season 1 overall as well as a grade for the affiliated 72 pages in Fire & Blood, and discussing how the portrayal of characters can give a conflicting sense of allegiance, don't miss out!   "And with his death, the war of ravens and envoys and marriage pacts came to an end, and the war of fire and blood began in earnest."

We pick back up where we left off last week and shift focus into Episode 4 in the House of the Dragon series today. Amends are attempted, freedom comes with a price, and desires refuse to be ignored.   Stick around as things heat up. Daemon makes his return from the Stepstones, Rhaenyra sneaks out of the Red Keep, Ser Criston Cole is on the receiving end of a surprising development, spies make reports to important people of power, the King is burdened with knowledge he refuses to accept, and more than one person is sent away from Kings Landing as a result.   With Chase & Josh recapping the episode, debating important topics, discussing the key takeaways, highlighting the important moments, and grading what they saw on screen, you'll want to stick around for this.   "You are the dragon. Your word is truth and law."

After King Viserys' death, the Small Council plots to install Prince Aegon on the Iron Throne. Ser Criston Cole kills Lord Beesbury when he objects to Princess Rhaenyra being supplanted, while Lord Commander of the Kingsguard Harrold Westerling resigns in protest. Ser Otto delays announcing the king's death to fortify their position and demands nobles give fealty oaths. Queen Alicent, who learns that Otto always intended to install Aegon as king, fails to gain support from Princess Rhaenys, who is held captive in the castle. When Aegon disappears from the Red Keep, Otto has Kingsguards Ser Erryk and Ser Arryk search the city, while Alicent sends Criston and Prince Aemond. Mysaria, the White Worm, informs Otto that Aegon is hiding in the city's sept, but Criston and Aemond apprehend him after a brief fight. After Lord Larys Strong warns Alicent she is being spied upon, including by Tayla, she has Mysaria's house burned. Aegon insists he is unfit to rule, but Alicent convinces him otherwise, quoting his father's dying words. Meanwhile, Erryk smuggles Rhaenys from the castle while Otto has hundreds of common folk herded into the Dragonpit's main hall, announcing Viserys' death and crowning Aegon as king. Amid the commotion, Rhaenys reaches her dragon Meleys, then enters and demolishes the hall; she defiantly confronts the royal usurpers before fleeing on dragonback. Hosted on Acast.

If last episode explored the themes of sex and pleasure, HotD S1E5 was all about love and marriage, with many proposals being made. Some dutiful, some taunting, and some... uh, romantic (???) but also really not. And since this is a patriarchy, these things can never be divorced (get it?) from gender and sexuality. Thankfully, we had our shining beacon of brilliance, Lo the Lynx, back with us to light the way. Join us as we discuss Viserys fighting through his declining health to get Rhaenyra to the altar, FINALLY. Power couple, Corlys and Rhaenys, share their hopes and fears for their children, revealing another layer to each of their characters. The inherant kindness and compassion in the way Rhaenyra and Laenor strike a pact to both do their duty and support each other's personal happiness in their marriage. It was beautiful to watch! We also discuss our parallel paramours, Ser Joffrey Lonmouth and Ser Criston Cole, and their very divergent attitudes towards the arrangement made by Laenor and Rhaenyra. The rift between Alicent and Rhaenyra widens as Otto Hightower poisons what's left of their friendship on his way out. Alicent doubles down on her conservativism and is the first to throw down the gauntlet of war with The Green Dress™. And things turn somber and sad as we must talk about what happened between Criston and Joffrey, the violence queer people face in real life, and our critique of how the show writers handled the manner of Joffrey's death as it relates to his sexuality.

This is the episode when the lines are finally drawn between Princess Rhaenyra and Queen Alicent in the setting of the former's wedding. Bewares spoilers beyond this point. In this episode they discuss Alicent's green dress and what it represents, vent on how much they hate Ser Criston Cole and his immaturity, guess what went down between Daemon and Rhaenyra for those brief seconds before chaos ensues, and return to discussing Viserys' incompetence as a king who can't even control his family and court.

Fabien Frankel, the actor behind Ser Criston Cole on House of the Dragon, “f---ing” loves that fans of the show will change their opinion of this knight in shining armor after episode 5. Frankel joins West of Westeros to discuss the true “thuggish,” “reactionary” nature of Ser Criston. Plus, hosts Nick Romano and Lauren Morgan are joined by a special guest, Nerdist staff writer Mike Walsh, to unpack the big moments of House of the Dragon episode 5. Learn more about your ad choices.

Check out our sweet, sweet merch! http://www.newrockstarsmerch.com House of the Dragon episode 5, We Light the Way, finds us celebrating the coming marriage of Rhaenyra Targaryen and Laenor Velaryon. But before the opening banquet can even come to a close, there is bloodshed on the dancefloor. Ser Criston Cole is finding it hard to live with the secret of his night of passion with the Princess, and Alicent Hightower is finding new ways to navigate the politics of the royal court without her father around to help. And through it all, King Viserys is just trying to live long enough to have a decent legacy. Jessica Clemons and Brandon Barrick react to this episode and breakdown the series of events that led to Ser Criston Cole finally snapping.

At the midway point of season 1, The House Of The Dragon seems to be losing some of its steam with a number of subplots and events that don't seem to be properly set up and actually confusing to the audience if they haven't read the books. In this episode, King Viserys goes to Seastone to make nice with House Velaryon and to wed Rhaenyra to Laenor Velaryon. Ser Criston Cole gets SIMPy for Rhaenyra, Daemon ends his marriage and starts eyeing Laena Velaryon, Lyonel Strong is the new Hand of the King and his son Larys starts acting like Littlefinger, and Alicent embraces her role as Queen and starts making some shrewd moves now that her father has left the Red Keep.

Joseph and Michael discuss episode 4 of House of the Dragon "The King of the Narrow Sea" an episode where everyone makes mistakes and no one really comes out on top. This is the truest form of House of the Dragon where no one is a hero and no one is a villain. They are all morally grey. Spoilers beyond this point. In this episode they discuss, Daemon's attempts to ruin his niece, Ser Criston Cole's inner turmoil, Alicent struggling with her marriage and her role as a Queen Consort, and the hypocrisy of King Viserys. That and much more in this episode of Back Into Thrones.

As King Viserys tries to ensure the future of the kingdom, Rhaenyra gets a taste of freedom. Listen as Greta and Jason explore indulgence and escapism in Episode 104, “King of the Narrow Sea.” Then, Fabien Frankel who plays Ser Criston Cole joins to discuss his training for his role, the true intentions behind his character, and the difficulties of wearing so much armor.

Rhaenyra travels to Storm's End, where, with Lord Boremund Baratheon's assistance, she meets and rejects countless suitors. She returns to King's Landing just as Prince Daemon arrives from the Stepstones on his dragon, Caraxes. Daemon says he was named, "King of the Narrow Sea", but swears allegiance to King Viserys and hands over the crown. As the reunited brothers celebrate with a feast, Queen Alicent confides her loneliness to Rhaenyra, who misses their friendship. Late at night, Rhaenyra, disguised as a boy, sneaks out with Daemon to explore King's Landing; they drink, attend a play, and visit a brothel. Daemon seduces a willing Rhaenyra, but, unable to perform sexually with her, he abruptly leaves. Rhaenyra, fully aroused, instead seduces Ser Criston Cole upon returning to the Red Keep. Ser Otto's spy informs him about Daemon and Rhaenyra's exploits. Alicent overhears Ser Otto telling the king, and she privately questions Rhaenyra, who falsely claims she is still a virgin. The king angrily confronts Daemon, who never denies the accusation and proposes that he wed Rhaenyra. Knowing Daemon only wants the marriage to gain the crown, the king exiles his brother back to the Vale. To avoid scandal, Viserys orders Rhaenyra to marry Ser Laenor Velaryon. The king dismisses Ser Otto as his Hand, realizing Otto has always manipulated him for his own personal gain. The king sends Grand Maester Mellos to give Rhaenyra abortifacient tea in case she is pregnant.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode, Daemon returns to King's Landing to make out with his niece, Rhaenyra puts the moves on Ser Criston Cole, Otto Hightower spreads some unseemly rumors, and Viserys has lots more wounds than when we last saw him!

Knowing Daemon wants the marriage to gain the crown, the king exiles his brother back to the Vale. To avoid scandal, Viserys orders Rhaenyra to marry Ser Laenor Velaryon.

C'est l'un des événements télévisuels de cette fin d'été : la sortie de "House of the Dragon", nouvelle série HBO et diffusée en France par OCS. Près de 200 ans avant les événements de "Game of Thrones", la Famille Targaryen s'agrippe tant bien que mal au Trône de Fer, mais rien n'est jamais acquis ! Succession, ambitions et trahisons au menu de ce grand spectacle, pour un budget de 20 millions de dollars à l'épisode. Fabien Frankel, Ser Criston Cole dans la série, est l'invité exceptionnel de ce premier "Cybercafé RTL".

During old king Jaehaerys Targaryen's reign, tragedies took his sons' lives, leaving the succession undecided. A Great Council convenes to choose Westeros' future ruler. Jaehaerys' grandchildren, Princess Rhaenys Targaryen and Prince Viserys Targaryen (Rhaenys' younger cousin) are the candidates. Westerosi law gives a male heir precedence over a female, regardless their birth order and Viserys is chosen. Nine years into King Visery I's reign, the Triarchy, an alliance formed by the free cities of Essos, threatens the kingdom, wanting to seize the Stepstones region. Viserys must also restrain his brother Daemon's brutality as the City Watch commander in King's Landing. Viserys, certain that pregnant Queen Aemma will bear him a son, holds a tournament to celebrate the impending birth. During the event, Dornish knight, Ser Criston Cole defeats Daemon in a competition while Queen Aemma and her son die in childbirth. The Hand of the King, Ser Otto Hightower, proposes that Viserys' only living child, the young princess Rhaenyra, be named heir to the Iron Throne. After a dispute with Daemon, Viserys proclaims Rhaenyra as the next ruler. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tradepaperbacks/message --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rangerryan/message

Six months after Rhaenyra is named heir, Daemon occupies Dragonstone supported by thousands of loyal Gold Cloak guards. Meanwhile, Prince-Admiral Craghas Drahar, known as the Crab Feeder, menaces the Stepstones at the Triarchy's behest. The Small Council presses King Viserys to remarry and propagate his royal line, which risks Rhaenyra's succession status. Rhaenyra's suggestion to show force against Daemon is dismissed, and she is relegated to selecting a new knight for the King's Guard. She chooses the unpopular Ser Criston Cole. As Alicent Hightower continues comforting King Viserys at her father's urging, Lord Corlys Velaryon, husband to Princess Rhaenys, proposes his twelve-year-old daughter, Laena, marry the King. Daemon steals a dragon egg to goad Viserys into a confrontation at Dragonstone, but Otto Hightower goes instead. As bloodshed looms, Rhaenyra flies to Dragonstone on her dragon, Syrax, and retrieves the egg. Her disobedience angers the king, prompting a heartfelt discussion about Queen Aemma and his remarrying. Ultimately, Viserys announces he will wed Alicent, angering both Rhaenyra and Corlys; Corlys then approaches Daemon to form an alliance. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tradepaperbacks/message --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rangerryan/message

James and Ender discuss the pilot episode The Heirs of the Dragon HBO's new Original series House of the Dragon. Overview: With both his sons dead and the succession undecided, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen convenes a Great Council for the Westerosi lords to select a future ruler. Jaehaerys' eldest grandson, Prince Viserys, is chosen over his eldest grandchild, Princess Rhaenys. Nine years into his reign, Viserys organizes a tournament to celebrate Queen Aemma Arryn's pregnancy, confident she will give birth to a male heir. The Small Council disregards Master of Ships Lord Corlys Velaryon's warning that the Triarchy, an alliance of Essos' Free Cities, threatens to cripple Westerosi shipping lanes. Hand of the King, Ser Otto Hightower, criticizes Viserys's brother and heir, Prince Daemon, for his brutality as the City Watch commander. At the tournament, Ser Criston Cole, a common-born Dornish knight, outcompetes Daemon, while Aemma dies in childbirth, her son, Baelon, dying shortly after. Viserys refuses the council's pleas to anoint a new heir until Ser Otto reveals that Daemon mockingly styled Baelon as, "The Heir for a Day." Outraged, Viserys banishes Daemon from King's Landing and anoints his only living child, Princess Rhaenyra, heir to the Iron Throne. Episode Director: Miguel Sapochnik Episode Writter: Ryan Condal

Fire Will Reign Emotional Fantasy Music - Ice & Fire by Solas. House of the Dragon is an American fantasy drama television series that is a prequel to the television series Game of Thrones (2011–2019), both based on the A Song of Ice and Fire novels by George R. R. Martin. The prequel series was created by Martin and Ryan Condal for HBO and is based on portions of Fire & Blood. Condal and Miguel Sapochnik are showrunners for House of the Dragon. Set about 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, the series chronicles the beginning of the end of House Targaryen, the events leading up to and covering the Targaryen war of succession, known as the "Dance of the Dragons". Season One, Episode One: The Heirs of the Dragon: In the last years of the reign of Jaehaerys Targaryen, the Old King, tragedies took the lives of his two eldest sons, Princes Aemon and Baelon, leaving the question of succession open. Faced with this situation, the king convened a Great Council where all the lords of Westeros would choose their future ruler. Two of Jaehaerys' grandchildren were candidates for succession, Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, wife of Lord Corlys Velaryon, the richest man at the time, and Prince Viserys Targaryen, Rhaenys' younger cousin and husband of Lady Aemma Arryn. By Westerosi law, a male descendant always comes ahead of a female descendant, causing Rhaenys to lose even though she was the oldest descendant of the king. Nine years later, King Viserys I reigns under the threat of the Triarchy, an alliance made by the free cities of Essos to obtain the region of Stepstones. In addition, Viserys has to deal with his brother Daemon Targaryen's misbehavior for practicing brutality against criminals in King's Landing in command of the City Watch. Queen Aemma dies during childbirth along with her newborn son, who would be Viserys' heir. The Queen's death occurred during the tournament held for the Prince's birth, where Ser Criston Cole defeated Daemon. The Hand of the King, Ser Otto Hightower, suggests that Viserys name his only living child, the young princess Rhaenyra, as heir to the Iron Throne instead of Daemon. After a falling out with Daemon, Viserys officially names his daughter Rhaenyra the Princess of Dragonstone and has several lords swear allegiance to her. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Il re è morto, lunga vita al re. Viserys Targaryen, Primo del Suo Nome, ascende al trono a seguito della morte del nonno. Persona allegra e paciosa, per nulla amante del conflitto, eredita un trono sicuro ed è determinato a mantenere la pace e la prosperità nati dal regno del suo predecessore. La cosa non sembra essere destinata a realizzarsi, e presto la sua corte si spacca a metà, fra il partito che supporta la sua seconda moglie, la Regina Alicent, e quello che supporta sua figlia ed erede, la Principessa Rhaenyra. Non aiutano certo un Primo Cavaliere ambizioso e un fratello che è più spina nel fianco che qualsiasi altra cosa. Il seme piantato nel 101 AC nel suo regno comincia a germogliare, e alla sua morte il regno pagherà un terribile prezzo.Art by Doug Wheatley (Fire and Blood illustrator)Link utili:1) https://warsandpoliticsoficeandfire.wordpress.com/2015/06/18/the-three-heads-of-the-dragon-kings-pretenders-and-the-ladies-of-fire-the-court-of-viserys-i/2) https://warsandpoliticsoficeandfire.wordpress.com/2015/06/25/three-heads-of-the-dragon-viserys-i/3) https://www.thefandomentals.com/viserys-i-ostrich-or-king-dragons-reign/4) https://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php?%2Ftopic%2F157080-what-happened-between-rhaenyra-and-cole%2F5) https://www.quora.com/What-do-you-think-really-happened-between-Ser-Criston-Cole-and-Rhaenyra-Did-he-bail-because-she-hit-on-him-vice-versa-or-something-else#:~:text=It's%20largely%20suspected%20that%20there,on%20Criston%20which%20he%20rejected6) https://asoiafuniversity.tumblr.com/post/181226456958/how-do-you-feel-about-alicent-hightower-i-used-toSupportate il canale in cambio di contenuti esclusivi: https://www.patreon.com/LaCittadellaQui trovate tutti i link del canale e dei suoi host: https://linktr.ee/LaCittadella
