- Episode 236: A FEAST FOR CROWS, CERSEI II: "Personnel is Policy" is available for everyone! notacastasoiaf.podbean.com/e/episode-23...
- Reposted by NotACast@notacast.bsky.social I was listening to Ep. 233 on Brienne and one of the things I love about her arc is that it is the antithesis of Thomas Hobbes’ Leviathan. I’m not sure if that’s what GRRM was aiming for, but I thought I would mention it in case you were interested.
- Reposted by NotACastBelatedly catching up on @notacast.bsky.social’s episode on Brienne I, and I really appreciated all the historical and literal parallels drawn when it comes to Brienne! Made me add things to my reading list! But because I’m me, I gotta throw two more parallels in there. 🧵
- Reposted by NotACastReally appreciated @notacast.bsky.social’s first Arya chapter with all the comparisons to historical cities, like Venice and Amsterdam. Reminded me a lot of what @bidonica.bsky.social talked about with us on @ragmanspod.bsky.social abt European art history! www.podbean.com/ew/pb-wrpiw-...
- Reposted by NotACastlistening to @notacast.bsky.social affc cersei I back to back with @girlsgonecanon.bsky.social adwd cersei ii and I was today years old when it clicked: cersei's very first pov chapter opens with her having a prophetic dream
- Reposted by NotACastThanking the old gods for a new AFFC @notacast.bsky.social episode this week for some much much needed escapism.
- No new episode this week! If you haven't already, check out our previous episode, our introduction to Dorne via Areo Hotah and the Sand Snakes: notacastasoiaf.podbean.com/e/episode-23...
- Reposted by NotACastThis week in Westeros: we head down to Dorne, where the Sand Snakes are calling for war and murder as revenge for their father Oberyn, but little do they know that their seemingly passive uncle Doran has his own plot cooking on low heat. Our episode is up for everyone!

- Episode 231: A FEAST FOR CROWS, THE CAPTAIN OF GUARDS: "Snakes in the Garden" is available for everyone! notacastasoiaf.podbean.com/e/episode-23...
- Reposted by NotACastI just listened to @notacast.bsky.social's last ep where they discussed the potential future fates of the Sandsnakes, so I just gotta take the opportunity to talk a bit about my fave Sandsnake (Alleras) and what I think their future might hold! 🐍
- Reposted by NotACastThis week in Westeros: we kick off the sorely underrated Ironborn storyline in Feast with Aeron Greyjoy, whose desperate attempts to use religion to banish the legacy of his abusive brother Euron have failed. The king is dead...long live the king. Our episode is up for everyone!

- Reposted by NotACastListening to @notacast.bsky.social’s episode about The Prophet really makes me think that I should make (write/podcast) about the Ironborn in relation to Nordic neo-Nazis’ usage of Viking imagery. Like en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_...

- Reposted by NotACastAFFC is built for rereads, a story illuminated by multiple visits. It's by far George's most challenging ASOIAF entry, and by our estimations, some of his best writing. This week we take the gargantuan step in trying to breakdown the most contentious book in the series with the Pate Prologue!
- Episode 229: A FEAST FOR CROWS, PROLOGUE: "Wonder and Terror" is available for everyone! notacastasoiaf.podbean.com/e/episode-22...
- Reposted by NotACastWhen they talk about how it’s not everyone’s favorite, they mean me, it’s my least favorite, but fam, listening to my dudes cover this is like watching a documentary on ALIEN3, by which I mean the making & analysis of is fascinating and riveting even if the thing itself is not for me personally

- Just as we start it!
- Reposted by NotACastThis week in Westeros, we begin everyone's favorite, A Feast for Crows! But Pate's prologue stands outside the book: a self-contained introduction to Oldtown, a bulwark against "the age of wonder and terror," at least until Pate lets the magic in. Our episode is up for everyone!

- Reposted by NotACastGetting back into my ASOIAF reread and @notacast.bsky.social listening after a Southern Reach reread and resisting the urge for a Locked Tomb reread right now.
- Reposted by NotACastOne of the last episodes of @notacast.bsky.social, @poorquentyn.bsky.social mentioned this quote from Gravity’s Rainbow and it’s stuck with me since: “You may never get to touch the Master, but you can tickle his creatures.” Feels apropos to our current climate.

- Reposted by NotACastA lot more Stannis, a lot less Dorne, and doing something, ANYTHING, with Bran are just some of our ideas for how Thrones could have tackled FeastDance. Davos in Winterfell, Young Griff and Jorah heading west, Tony Shaloub as the Shavepate and Adria Arjona as Arianne!

- Reposted by NotACastLuke completes his arc in this movie by turning off his targeting computer and trusting himself (and the Force) to complete the mission. It's one of the many man v. machine moments in Star Wars; why trust a machine to blow up a machine when human intuition can get the job done?

- Reposted by NotACastThe Trench Run may be the greatest ten-minute sequence in cinema; painstakingly story boarded by Lucas and brought to life by incredible craftspeople. It’s not just an exhilarating, expertly-cut climax, but a testament to the heights cinema can reach.

- Reposted by NotACastAll through his quest across the war-torn countryside, Jaime kept himself going by telling himself he had to make it back to Cersei. Now he has, but it doesn't make him happy. His experiences have made him realize the truth: she doesn't actually care about him, and never has.

- Reposted by NotACastWhen Joffrey slashes apart the book about kingship Tyrion gave him, it's not only an expression of Joffrey's willful ignorance. It demonstrates the limits of history in the face of power. What do the book's insights matter if the current little bastard in charge refuses to learn?
