Ep. 60 - S06E09 Battle of the Bastards w/ Eric Silver Artwork

Game of Groans

Emily Bateman, a millennial woman who never got into Game of Thrones, finally sits down to watch and analyze each consecutive episode of the popular HBO show. With the help of her sister, Kate Koballa, and sometimes a guest, Emily tries to figure out what the heck is going on in the show, why it was so popular at the time and who is actually going to win the game of thrones (if there actually is a winner at the end).

Additionally, Eric brings up reductive and basic writing and they all agree that Ramsay can't stop being a weird little dude.
