I almost never comment on AVC anymore, but I logged on just so I can say YES A MILLION TIMES to this. He's pleasant enough on other podcasts, but a friend and I got tickets to an episode he taped in Brooklyn, and he was FUCKING INSUFFERABLE. And people were eating it up! Like, people were laughing so hard at his…

Newbies thread. Watch it.

I only just realized that she's the chick in Misfits who Rudy says "well, she really did like being fucked in the arse."

Varys even says that he doesn't have a surname in this episode. I don't think anyone from the Free Cities does.

Bingo. How are you the only one to have gotten this? The White Walkers can't go south until Winter. It's the freakin' tagline of the whole series! And Melisandre's religion believes in one Fire God, of day and light, and one Great Other, who is the god of night and terror. It helps to note that in the books, they are…

Not sure if none of the Brooklyn podcast was taped for Proops, but I was there, and it was dreadful. One of the least funny things I've ever had to sit through in my life. Which is weird, because I love Proops when he's on other podcasts. He needs guests.

Yeah, after hearing the WTF with Foley, I got the sense that he was terribly bitter, but that there was way more to the story than he was letting on.

My guess about Grey Worm - he trusts Daario because he sees how he looks at Daenerys, and knows he won't betray her.

At some point in Generation X (yeah, I'm dating myself), they posit that Jubilee is an Omega-level mutant, because she could potentially create and manipulate plasma out of any matter. And then….they totally forgot about it.

Was a decent flaying knife, at least.

I believe because the exchange is generic Valaryian, and only takes on that meaning when you say it to a Braavosi.

Easily done, as (SPOILERS) - Davos has Edric spirited away.

You are correct, sir.

I have no doubt that Oberyn will be introduced in the first or second episode of next season, with the Purple Wedding in episodes 2 or 3. Gets it off to a rollicking start, an allows time to introduce Dorne and the backstory of Elia and (SPOILER) young Aegon.

I dunno, I went to Iceland two years ago, and apparently they started teaching English in public schools there about 30 years ago, because everyone who is under 30 there speaks fluent English, Danish, and Icelandic without a problem.

I was always a bit confused as to why Jaqen H'gar talks about the Red God, but a friend explained it like this, which makes sense: Arya saved Jaqen and two other men from being burned to death (e.g., how one would sacrifice to the Red God), thus stealing three lives from the Red God. Thus, the three lives Jaqen takes…

I'm always surprised that Probably Science never gets covered here.

Nope. This is way worse: http://thegrio.com/2013/04/…

Well, consider that there hasn't been a war since Robert's Rebellion. There have been no battles for him to take part in for his entire life. So, tourneys would be the only way to demonstrate his prowess.

Response to below - Tywin was Aerys the Mad King's hand. Jon Arryn was Robert Baratheon's hand, and Tywin was Warden of the West.
