We take you on a trip to discover how fascists in our world and Westeros use what they like in the Middle Ages, pick and choose and lump it all together and bam! have lovely (or not) symbols to show and things to say to justify their hatred and actions. We mostly only look at our world, and how Vikings and the Crusades are used, and look at what GRRM uses and doesn't use.
Tell your friends and even your enemies about this episode, and if you liked what you hear, leave us a firework of stars and rave about us in a review on your podcast app of choice.
Also, check out our Patreon where you can find out how to get bonus episodes and other cool things (such as shoot outs at the Sea Pounce level -who doesn't dream of a positive review of their person?). Also, we've just introduced our brand new super very special tier: Stannis the cat that was promised <3
