Episode 79: A CLASH OF KINGS, JON I & II "The True Steel" with Special Guest JoeMagician!

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter (though not in this case) podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!   In this episode, Jon meets up with good friends, gets challenged by his mentors and readers are introduced to Azor Ahai Reborn: DOLOROUS EDD!   This week, we:   - Talk about the Others and the Five Year Gap   - Make the case that these chapters are a bit slow but still good!   - Analyze the Castle Black library and talk about how it symbolizes the Night's Watch as a whole   - Discuss Jon as Aemon, Bran as Aegon V Targaryen   - Talk about weirwoods!   - Was Donal Noye right in his description of each Baratheon brother as different metals? And do they all have some value?   Next week, we head down to Riverrun to re-acquaint ourselves with Catelyn Stark, woman who did only one thing wrong in her entire life, and learn troubling news about the start of King Robb’s reign. And we’ll be joined next week by none other than returning guest and champion STEVEN ATTEWELL!   Matt's podcast: https://joemagician.podbean.com/   Matt's youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHmkKXQMT3SBBzmPQAbgMog   Matt's patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Joemagician/posts   Matt's twitter: https://twitter.com/TheJoeMagician   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 twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn   Jeff's twitter: twitter.com/BryndenBFish
