Episode 43: A GAME OF THRONES, EDDARD XI: "Fifty Shades of Truth"

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week! Today, Emmett and Jeff breakdown AGOT, Eddard XI, in which Ned Stark sits high atop the uncomfortable Iron Throne and does a bit of northern justice south of the Neck. But was this the smart play? So much to talk about … This week, we talk about: - Loras and Renly's relationship - What's the future for Fire and Blood, Volume Two - The Red Keep: a bloody history - Tywin's real plan for the Riverlands - Ned: smart in his plan for Tywin - Ned: maybe not as smart to send his men away - Ned: actually, he's smart guys. Deal with it.   Next week: AGOT, Sansa III!   Steve's wordpress site: https://racefortheironthrone.wordpress.com/ Steve's tumblr: http://racefortheironthrone.tumblr.com/  Link to Steve's books on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_15?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=steven+attewell&sprefix=steven+attewell%2Caps%2C130&crid=LBE3ZJ3QHQD4  Our patreon: www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF Our twitter: twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF Our facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/289889118235797/ Our youtube page: www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmDfPdG…iew_as=subscriber Emmett's tumblr: poorquentyn.tumblr.com/ Emmett's twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn Jeff's twitter: twitter.com/BryndenBFish
