Deze aflevering is eerder op 20 september 2022 gepubliceerd. (Dipsaus is tot eind september 2023 met zomerstop. Tot die tijd zullen we afleveringen die voorheen achter een betaalmuur waren opnieuw publiceren).What is the Seven Hells is going on?!? Aflevering 05 “We Light The Way” geeft ons Thirst Traps (Harwin shippers verenigt u!), we krijgen te zien dat Mushroom's verhalen meer waarheid bevatten dan verwacht. Afgewezen geliefden, vindictive royalty's, en een uncosumated marriage betekent chaos in Westeros. We were clutching our pearls… behalve Mariam dan…! Anousha Nzume, Mariam El Maslouhi en Ebissé Wakjira duiken samen met Manju Reijmer in Alicent's breuk met Rhaenyra, een openhartig gesprek over LGBTQI+ representation (lack thereof!!!) en seksualiteit in de Velaryon familie en dat intense huwelijksfeest dat ons op het puntje van onze stoel deed zitten...De "Game of Thrones-universum is uitgebreid met de prequel-serie "House of the Dragon". In Dance of Dipsaus gaan we de hele series wekelijks ontleden. "House of the Dragon" draait om de Targaryan-dynastie, ongeveer 200 jaar vóór de gebeurtenissen van "Game of Thrones". Het is gebaseerd op delen van de roman "Fire & Blood" van George R.R. Martin uit 2018. We verwachten dat de show zijn voorganger en zijn eigen naam waarmaakt - met vuur, bloed en draken in overvloed.#DragonsYall #DemDragons #DanceofDipsausZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 14, 2023 is: asunder • uh-SUN-der • adverb or adjective Asunder is most often used as an adverb—often with a verb such as tear or pull—to mean "apart" or "into pieces." It is more rarely used as an adjective meaning "apart from each other," as in "he stood with his legs wide asunder." // The park was torn asunder by yesterday's microburst, and many of its trails have been blocked by fallen trees. See the entry > Examples: "House of the Dragon chronicles the events leading up to and during the Dance of the Dragons, the name given by the poets of Westeros to a gruesome civil war that tore House Targaryen asunder." — Nick Romano, EW.com, 11 Aug. 2022 Did you know? To get to the root of today's word, it helps to take it apart and focus on the sunder. You see, asunder comes from the verb sunder, which means "to break apart" or "to become parted, disunited, or severed." Both words come from the Old English word sundor, meaning "apart." The adverbial "into parts" sense of asunder is often used in the phrase "tear asunder," which can be used both literally (as in "fabric torn asunder") and, more often, figuratively (as in "a community torn asunder by the dispute"). The adjectival "apart from each other" sense can be found in the phrase "poles asunder," used to describe two things that are as vastly far apart as the poles of the Earth.

Mackelly and Simon thank the Seven it's not them who deceived her.Chapter Review:Daenerys Targaryen and her host of freed people make camp outside the walls of Meereen. A hero waits for Dany outside the city walls. Dany sends Strong Belwas to face the Meereenese hero. The fight doesn't last long, ending in Belwas decapitating the other man.Later, Dany discusses ways to defeat the city, with her council. Nobody has any useful ideas, so she dismisses them. While ruminating on the task in front of her, she considers Daario Naharis. Dany fancies him and wonders what it'd be like to take him as a lover. She puts the thought aside and goes for a ride, with Missandei and Arstan Whitebeard for company. Dany allows her people to touch her, as she rides by. However, one man pulls her from her saddle. It's Mero, the former commander of the Second Sons. Mero moves to kill her but Arstan instead easily defeats him.Back inside her tent, Dany wants Jorah to knight Arstan for his efforts. Both men balk at that. It's then that Jorah realizes who Arstan really is. He introduces Arstan as Ser Barristan Selmy, a traitor to the Targaryans, for serving under Robert the Usurper. Barristan scoffs at the hypocrisy and tells Dany of Jorah's treason, selling information about her and her brother to Lord Varys, as part of a pardon agreement. Dany is angry and hurt and sends both men away. However, on second thought, she has a great use for the pair of liars!Characters/Places/Names/Events:Daenerys Targaryen - Last remaining descendent of the royal Targaryen line, Stormborn, Mother of Dragons, claimant to the Iron Throne of Westeros.Ser Jorah Mormont - Exiled former Lord of Bear Island.

Disney tries to reassure fans that Star Wars is definitely, maybe, probably going to make another movie… … and that they promise they won't make us watch another season of Obi-Wan Kenobi (uhh… kind of a weird flex, but okay!). But no troubled franchise is troubled quite like Amazon's The Rings of Power, which even fans struggled to finish. We'll share the eye-popping details from Kim Masters at The Hollywood Reporter.

Second Breakfast with Cam & Maggie

Oh look, a crossover between our favorite genres! This horror classic has an important connection to the world of fantasy. Writer / Director Neil Marshall helmed two of the all-time “Game of Thrones” battle episodes, Blackwater and Watchers on the Wall. But before we made the trip to Westeros, he dove into a cave and scared the bejeezus out of us. There might not be a better instance of sustained tension in the history of the genre. Between the cave-ins and the creatures (!) and the flashlight cinematography, The Descent is an hour-and-a-half of death grip terror.

“…we venerate the crooks, rapists, and pillagers credulous historians have repackaged as ‘founders,' ‘conquerors,' and ‘civilize.' We erect statues and consecrate tombs to commemorate their difference-making. But in fact, most of these monuments memorialize the dark deeds of unhinged lunatics driven by rampant ego and raving greed… most of the supposed ‘great men of history' were criminals on a rampage. We celebrate them because they ‘changed the world.' But where's the evidence that they changed it for the better?” — Chris Ryan“He who dies with the most toys wins.” — Malcolm Forbes “If we don't put aside our enmities and band together, we will die. And then it doesn't matter whose skeleton sits on the Iron Throne.” — Davos Seaworth, Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 3In most episodes I tell a story about a specific event with a clear beginning and end. Occasionally, I tackle a theme and look at how it plays out throughout history. This is one of those times. Simple stories are great, but sometimes looking at the big picture is even more interesting. I am joined by Aziz Al-Doory from the History of Westeros podcast to chat about a central theme in history and, of course, in JRR Martin's work: the drive that makes individuals struggle for power throughout history. In particular, we look at the more extreme (but by no means rare) examples: what makes someone risk his position and wealth in an effort to plunge a country into civil war for the sake of power? What goes through someone's head who is willing to murder his siblings to get to the throne? Can uber-powerful people who executed their children and spouses ever have been happy? Why so many people have become addicted to a struggle that seems to be antithetical to having a good life? As we ponder the answer to these questions, we tackle multiple case studies: from the Japanese warring states period to Shaka Zulu's career, from the power struggle after the death of Alexander the Great to the conflict between Kublai Khan and his brother, and many more.
