The final three Targaryen Kings -- Aegon V, Jaehaerys II, and Aerys II -- ruled collectively for more than 50 years, and their reigns were all influenced to some extent by dragon dreams, prophecies, and the Blackfyre issue. Join us as we follow those threads through the final decades of Targaryen rule in the Seven Kingdoms -- including an analysis of the tragedy at Summerhall -- and speculate what the histories might reveal to us about the present and future of House Targaryen in ASoIaF.

In this episode we dive deep into the arc of Samwell Tarly -- the closest thing to a self insert by GRRM in ASoIaF. We explore themes of growth, heroism, courage, family dysfunction and more as we follow Sam from childhood in the Reach, to the Wall and beyond, and back to Oldtown. We also recap some Tarly family history and discuss the literary inspirations of this important character.https://www.patreon.com/radiowesteros
