Didn't mention this in the recent update, but there is progress!
This is just the melody, I'm working on some chords. And of course there will be singing in the final version.

Edited audio from the livestream on July 27th 2019. Sean, Ash and Aziz discuss book and show Battle of the Blackwater (mostly book, Sean had just finished when we recorded). It's still the biggest battle in the books (6 POV chapters), and the first one HBO put on full display in Season 2 Episode 9.
In the 2nd half, we chat Nashville/Con of Thrones 2019. We met Jerome Flynn (Bronn), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime), the Wolf and the Crows and others while also hanging with fun people like B...

This month's Tuesday stream (6 PM Eastern) is coming on the 6th, 5 days from now!
We last did an episode on Oldtown before even TWOIAF was published, let alone Fire & Blood. So it's definitely time to compile and analyze. So it's time for Oldtown: Past, Present and Future...
We'll have extra fun doing it too, as the first Tuesday of the month happens to be Ash's nameday this time!

My fellow Westorians...
- We got our panel audio links from Con of Thrones 2019 in Nashville, and will be sending them off to the Bengineer for editing. We expect to release most of them (and there are around 20!). Myself, Sean and Ash did a lot of panels with a lot of fun people.
- With the Con (and panel preparation) behind us, and most of the difficulty in our house/home situation solved, I can get House Blackwood finished. I've been saying this for a while... I admit to biti...
Lord Eddard didn't want the tourney, but he got it, and it showcased a large number of interesting secondary characters.
In this patrons-only bonus episode, we remind you of what's going on with a host of Freys, future members of the Brotherhood, a whole host of knights, and a few others that might surprise you.

Since we knew there would be no Valar Rereadis episode this weekend, I held back the release of the pod version of the Livestream w/Sean of House Beard on Sat the 22nd so there would be something to fill that gap this week!
We had a great discussion about what we know so far re: the prequel GoT show on HBO.

No One thinks this is important, but... (ha)
The Faceless Men and the Iron Bank are two outstanding (I mean that in both ways) mysteries from ASOIAF. Surely some of the biggest reveals are yet to come, but Fire & Blood gave us quite a bit more to think about. They are mentioned early, middle and late in the book.
Since it's been fairly well established that GRRM is, in part, using F&B to set the table for future ASOIAF events, a...

I fell behind on making nicknames and titles for people and also like to do a check up from time to time to make sure no one was missed.
So if you are waiting on me still, or want to be added to the list for a nickname/title, please post here!
Hope to see y'all at the livestream at 2 Eastern today and/or for Valar Rereadis tomorrow at 3 Eastern!

So far we're VERY happy with how the reread is going, but since it is still early we want to take the opportunity to get as much feedback as possible. Better to make changes now than later!
The Valar Rereadis episodes are left unlisted after each stream. How do you feel about that? Is that harder for you to manage? Is it a hassle to find them?
(note, this is for AFTER the livestream, NOT during. We are still keeping the actual livestreams semi-private. If you don't watch on Yo...
