"Ten thousand of your children perished in my palm, Your Grace, she thought, slipping a third finger into Myr. Whilst you snored, I would lick your sons off my face and fingers one by one, all those pale sticky princes. You claimed your rights, my lord, but in the darkness I would eat your heirs."
Professor of Cerseiology at the University of Lesbos, Rohanne, joins us to do a deep dive about Cersei, queerness, and the importance of complex narratives.

Friday Oct 11, 2024
Friday Oct 11, 2024
It's a fitting day for rain at Tywin's funeral. It's not a very comforting one for the family, though, as Cersei bats away the grasping mourners and tries to keep the pack—er, lion's pride—together. (They do not wish to be together.)

Princess Saera herself was still alive and well in Volantis, and only thirty-four years of age; her own claim was clearly superior to those of any of her bastard sons, but she did not choose to press it. “I have my own kingdom here,” she said, when asked if she meant to return to Westeros.

“It’s been said that Targaryens are closer to gods than men…
In my eyes, you were a god. Daemon Targaryen. The Prince of the City. The Lord of Flea Bottom.
I was an innocent. You exploited me and abandoned me. You sullied my name at court. You empowered my rivals. You tried to make my ruin.
You put me on that throne. And you love me and you hate me for it.
You created me, Daemon. Yet you are now set on destroying me.
All because your brother loved me more than he did you.
This is what you always wanted, is it not?”
In what can only be described as "an epic hour of television", the Red Dragon and the Gold surpasses our expectations as the biggest battle with dragons we've yet seen on our screens. Meet the halfway mark of the season with us in this episode.
