In our bakers-dozenth episode, we're joined by Matt Christman of the Chapo Trap House media conglomerate in analyzing, hating on, nitpicking, mocking, and mourning the near-decade-spanning HBO television series Game of Thrones. We talk Khaleesi, the Starks, the freaking Dothraki and Unsullied, all the fan favorites. We also get cynical about the future of the book series, the promise of innumerable spin-off shows, and, for good measure, the doomed Eldritch Sonic.
