In this short discussion, we'll cover:

  • Whether the gruesome childbirth scene in this episode was necessary

In this edition of The Cast Beyond the Wall, hosts Caleb Masters and Daniel Stull return for an in-depth discussion with guests Brock Lay and Lacey covering the dragon ride heard, but apparently not seen, around the world in season 1 episode 7 of House of the Dragon, "Driftmark." 

After the death of Laena, the Targaryen and Velaryon families gather together for the funeral and wake that followed. Boiling beneath the surface were the years of resentment that have festered between Rhaenyra and Alicent. It all comes to a head after Aemond claims Laena's dragon, Vhagar, and loses his eye in a brawl with his cousins.

Has House of the Dragon finally achieved its first Game of Thrones-tier feud? 

Today’s podcast topics include:

  • Our overall reviews of "Driftmark"
  • Was this episode poorly lit?
  • As the families draw battlelines, who should we be rooting for?
  • The marriage of Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen
  • What Aemond mounting Vhagar could mean for House Hightower
  • The unclear rules related to the dragons
  • This week's winner, loser, and wildcard player

According to the IMDB synopsis, “Driftmark” is described as: 

"As the families gather on Driftmark for a funeral, Viserys calls for an end to the infighting and Alicent demands justice."

  • Otto Hightower's fall as hand
  • How house Velaryon could use this play to gain the upper hand in the eyes of Viserys
  • Who came out on top of this episode

The Cast Beyond the Wall dives into the series premiere of The House of the Dragon, "Heirs of the Dragon." Hosts Caleb Masters and Daniel Stull are rejoined by award-winning Oklahoma Filmmaker, Laron Chapman, to provide their initial reviews of the season's first episode before providing a breakdown of the story and theories about what might be in store over the remaining nine episodes. 

Are the increased budget, new creative team, and George RR Martin blessing enough to make this a successful spinoff pilot?

Tune in to hear whether or not showrunners Miguel Sapochnik and Ryan J. Condal stick the landing! 

Today's podcast topics include:

  • Did "Heirs of the Dragon" successfully bring us back into the Game of Thrones state of mind?
  • Prologues, family trees, and other Targaryen history fueling the drama.
  • Daemon Targaryen and woes of King Viserys.
  • How do those easter eggs in House of the Dragon connect to the original Game of Thrones?
  • Who was this week's winner, loser, and most suspecting wildcard player in Westeros?
  • What do we expect to see in episode 2, "The Rogue Prince"? 

According to IMDB, the official synopsis for “Heirs of the Dragon” reads:

“Viserys hosts a tournament to celebrate the birth of his second child. Rhaenyra welcomes her uncle Daemon back to the Red Keep.”

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! After six years, dozens of guest hosts, and more than 50 episodes, The Cast Beyond the Wall concludes our recap and review of Game of Thrones. Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to take a look back at their journeys to the podcast, their closing thoughts on the final season, and reflect on what it all really means.

Endings are hard, but we hope we've left you with one you'll enjoy and remember most fondly. Tune in to hear us take a stroll down memory lane and try and make sense of eight years of the most exciting, compelling, frustrating, and ultimately, all around thought consuming television.

We would like to give a special thanks to our hosts and partners at GoodTrash Media and We Got This Covered in addition to our recurring guest hosts over the years including Ben Friend, Dalton Stuart, Drew Ruiz, Lanie James, Mark Pickens, Jessica Martin, Sam Woolf, Laron Chapman, Alexandra Bohannon, Ryan Siggers, Jacob Burns, Kirsten Therkelson, Kris Tobin and Beth Lucari. Most importantly, THANK YOU to our thousands of recurring listeners who have supported the show over the years to make the ongoing production of The Cast Beyond the Wall possible. Being your watchers on the wall was great fun and a terrific honor. 

And now our watch has ended.

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! The Cast Beyond the Wall continues our recap and review of Game of Thrones season 8 with a look at the long-awaited series finale, "The Iron Throne." Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to talk through the finale episode of the show and determine whether or not David Benioff and Dan Weiss stuck the landing.

After last week's shocking twist in "The Bells," our characters are left picking up the pieces as they determine how they are going to restore order to Westeros in the wake of Daenerys' attack on King's Landing. In the final hour of Game of Thrones, our characters are given bittersweet sendoffs ultimately leading to a hopeful ending for the Seven Kingdoms.

With so much to wrap up, were we satisfied? We run down the list of closing moments and weigh whether or not "The Iron Throne" was logical, emotionally satisfying, and true to the story George R.R. Martin set out to tell in 1996 with the release of the first novel, A Game of Thrones.

This may be the last episode of Game of Thrones, but The Cast Beyond the Wall will return again next week one last time to reflect on how this final season changes the series as a whole. We'll also spend time answering your questions! Send your questions, reactions to the final season, and closing remarks to our email castbeyondthewall@live.com or send us a message on our Facebook or Twitter pages.

The final points are in and with a new king in town and the last of the key players passing away, Caleb retained his lead in this year's fantasy league, but just barely.

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! The Cast Beyond the Wall continues our recap and review of Game of Thrones season 8 with a look at the controversial penultimate episode of the series, "The Bells." Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to look at Daenerys Targaryen's twisted turn of events with returning guest host, Laron Chapman.

Over 70 episodes and 8 years of television were leading to this moment, and for better or for worse, "The Bells" did not fail to leave audiences with the shock and awe Game of Thrones has become known for delivering over the years. Unlike other of the series most darkly iconic moments, this one felt more personal and spurred a debate that strikes at the heart of Game of Thrones fandom. 

Caleb, Austin, Daniel, and guest Laron Chapman go deep and determine whether Sunday's episode and closing of several storylines worked or was a betrayal of everything the series has promised so far. 

The bloody battle led to a surprising closing of the gap in fantasy league points between Caleb and Austin.

NOTE: This podcast episode contains brief references to the sexual assault plotlines in Game of Thrones. Listener discretion is advised. 

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! The Cast Beyond the Wall continues our recap and review of Game of Thrones season 8 with a look at the most polarizing episode of the final stretch yet, “The Last of the Starks.” Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to look at the controversial episode with returning guest host, Alexandra Bohannon. 

This transition episode is packed to the brim with scheming, plot twists, and the type of Game of Thrones fun we haven't seen since the earlier seasons. "The Last of the Starks" attempts to take the show back to its roots while also racing full speed ahead to the show's conclusion. The results are mixed at best, and it's not just because Daenerys Targaryen likes her coffee extra strong. The episode brings back memories of the past in more than one way, and for many viewers, they weren't the good memories. The cast discusses how the greatly accelerated pace is negatively impacting the final season and how some of the more frustrating scenes could be handled in more thoughtful and tasteful ways. 

The discussion closes out with Caleb, Austin, Daniel, and Alexandra making final predictions for who will the battle and position themselves to take the Iron Throne. 

As the pieces are moved into place for the final battle of the series, the Game of Thrones fantasy league continued to keep everyone (including Austin the two-time dragon murderer) on their toes.

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! The Cast Beyond the Wall continues our recap and review of Game of Thrones season 8 with a look at one of the most highly anticipated television episodes of the year, “The Long Night.” Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to look at one of Game of Thrones' most ambitious battles to date. To commemorate the special "battle episode" occasion, we're joined again by GoodTrash Media's own Dalton Stuart.

For more than seven seasons and eight years of TV, Game of Thrones fans have awaited the arrival of the white walkers, and finally, in "The Long Night," their forces mount an attack on Winterfell. The battle that ensues in unlike any we've seen before in modern pop culture. With all of the complaints about the darker lighting, do we think it spoils the episode? We discuss the benefits and drawbacks of director Miguel Sapochnik's technical decisions in an otherwise impactful episode.

Heading into the season, few of us expected the Night King and white walker threat to be dispatched so quickly three episodes before the series finale. As we begin closing the book on Game of Thrones, we beg the question again--is the show becoming too conventional? Caleb, Danial, and Austin hash it out while Dalton provides some additional predictions about what the switch could mean for the remainder of the season.

This is the biggest moments in 2019 for pop culture and we leave no stone unturned as we determine how well it worked and what it means for the future of fantasy on TV.

The epic battle also provided game-changing results for this year's Game of Thrones fantasy league Take a look at the latest results!

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! The Cast Beyond the Wall continues our recap and review of Game of Thrones season 8 with a look at the latest episode, "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms."  Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to do a scene by scene breakdown of one of the year’s most anticipated events in entertainment. Rounding out one of our favorite The Cast Beyond the Wall traditions, we are paid our annual visit from recurring guest host, Ben Friend.

“A Knight in the Seven Kingdoms” slowed things down one last time before the show heads into its climactic final chapters by spending quality time with our favorite surviving characters. After arriving in Winterfell, Jaime Lannister is immediately questioned about his loyalty in the face of his family's oldest enemies. After making peace, he is reunited with his closest friends, his brother Tyrion and Brienne of Tarth for a trip down memory lane. The trip ends in what will likely be one of the most iconic moments of the series, the knighting of Ser Brienne of Tarth by Ser Jaime Lannister.

While many of our characters spend their final hours drinking, finding love or spending time with those who mean the most, Daenerys Targareyn continues to seek reassurance and loyalty from those who would fight alongside her. Jon reveals his heritage to Dany, but is unable to make amends or resolve the conflict before the White Walker army arrives at Winterfell.

This is an emotionally somber episode filled with the classic Game of Thrones "talking and scheming in chambers" moments that have been far fewer in recent seasons. We close out our conversation by picking the most likely deaths in the epic battle for Winterfell. Tune in to hear the scene by scene review and break down from Caleb, Austin, Daniel, and this week's guest Ben Friend.

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! After playing chicken with a pair of Dany's dragons and the lengthiest hiatus yet, The Cast Beyond the Wall has returned with recap and review of the Game of Thrones season 8 premiere, "Winterfell."  Host Caleb Masters is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to do a scene by scene breakdown of one of the year's most anticipated events in entertainment.

"Winterfell" started with a throwback to the very first episode of Thrones as Jon Snow and Daenerys Stormborn reached the end of their trip up the Kingsroad to the titular castle. The extra soldiers to fight the dead may be appreciated, but the tension and skepticism between the mother of dragons and the northerners, including Sansa Stark, is uneasy at best.

The alliance between houses Stark and Targaryen may not be a sealed deal yet, but the episode provided a number of long-awaited reunions between our characters. For the first time since season one's second episode "The Kingsroad," Arya Stark and Jon Snow are reunited in what may be one of the most heartwarming moments of the series. Not every character meeting is quite so happy. In a very Thrones-esque twist, Samwell Tarley learns the grisly fates of his father and brother when he reconnects with Jorah Mormont and meets Daenerys for the first time. All of this is capped off with Sam revealing Jon's true heritage.

The Cast Beyond the Wall is back recapping each and every moment with Caleb, Daniel, and Austin locking in predictions and laying out their final theories as they evaluate whether or not "Winterfell" successfully kicks off the final season.

To keep the stakes high for the final season, the Game of Thrones fantasy league is back!

Hello, lords and ladies of the realm! After dueling with the podcasting white walker overlords and the lengthiest hiatus yet, The Cast Beyond the Wall has returned with a full preview of the final season of Game of Thrones. Caleb is re-joined by co-hosts Austin Lucari and Daniel Stull to look back at last year’s greatest hits before they make their predictions on the twists, backstabbings, and deaths ahead in the final six episodes of Game of Thrones.

The podcast kicks off with a brief look back at the highs and lows of season 7 before the cast breaks down the position of each main character and the role they'll play in the final storylines. Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen have taken their forces north to Winterfell to prepare for the Night King's armies who are marching south after the attack on Eastwatch.

South in King’s Landing, Cersei has conspired with Euron Greyjoy to break her oath and betray Jon and Daenerys by retaking Westeros while her adversaries are fighting the army of the dead. After discovering this plot, Jaime left Cersei to join the forces fighting in the north. With her enemies vulnerable, will her plan to retake Westeros prove successful or threatening to the heroes waging war with the wights?

One potential threat to her plan is Theon Greyjoy's mission to rescue his sister, Yara, from the cartoonish clutches or Euron and his newly recruited Golden Company. With Theon's redemption all but complete, can his small team of Iron Islanders do enough to sabotage Cersei's scheme? All of these questions and more will be discussed in this final season preview.

To close out the conversation, The Cast Beyond the Wall reveals the plans to bring back the fan favorite Game of Thrones Fantasy League. Once again, Caleb, Austin, and Daniel will play in this year's year’s special Fantasy League put on by The Verge. Start placing your bets now, because these stakes and results are coming in hot!

The final season of Game of Thrones is bittersweet and The Cast Beyond the Wall will be there with you each and every step of the way. When the dust settles, all debts will be paid and the chilling winter winds will blow over the graves of our favorite fallen characters. Join us one last time as we recap and analyze each episode, and consider joining the conversation by sending in an audio memory or listener email to castbeyondthewall@live.com.

In this week's episode, we're rejoined by one of the 'cast's oldest recurring co-hosts, Ben Friend, to discuss what feels like one of the most climactic hours of Game of Thrones yet! Before jumping into Lannister vs dragon battle, we start by giving our initial thoughts of the whole episode.

Bran continues to demonstrate that he's no longer the boy we used to know by tipping his Three-Eyed Raven knowledge off to Littlefinger. The Stark reunions continue this week as Arya and Sansa have a reunion that is both heartwarming and bittersweet.

The fantasy league continues to heat up as Austin claims this week's MVP, Daenerys Targaryen, who roasted countless soldiers on the battlefield. I continue to gain momentum thanks to Bronn's wisecracking and a showdown with the dragon.

As the end grows even closer to its inevitable conclusion, Game of Thrones has shifted into warp speed and started clearing the board of players who aren't as necessary to the dragon on the white walker end game. This week gave us not one, but two epic sieges along with the inevitable death of the fan favorite Queen of Thorns. In her final moments, she revealed to Jaimie that she was the one behind Joffrey's murderer at the purple wedding.

We also answer listener questions and address the news of HBO's recent hack and how it could affect Game of Thrones.

After more than a year of waiting for a new episode,The Cast Beyond the Wall returns to discuss the Game of Thrones season 7 premiere, Dragonstone.

Caleb, Austin, and Daniel break down each scene of the latest episode starting with the outrageously violent murder of the Frey family in the cold open. From there, the gang explores each of major storylines including the power struggle between Jon Snow and Sansa, The Sandor "The Hound" Clegane's continued redemption, the toxic relationship between Jaimie and Cersei and Daenerys's long-awaited arrival to Westeros.

It was a table-setting show jam-packed with quick character moments! Your hosts are all very excited about the return but disagree on a number of the episode's key moments.

This year also marks the first that gang participated in a fantasy league.

After more than a year of being on hiatus, it's time to rally the realm. The Cast Beyond the Wall has returned with a full preview of season 7! Caleb is re-joined by Austin and Daniel to look back at last year's greatest hits before making their predictions of the twists, backstabbings, and deaths ahead in Game of Thrones season 7.

The podcast kicks the conversation off by reflecting on the treachery going on in the north. Jon Snow may have been declared the new King in the North, but Sansa and Petyr Baelish have other ideas about who should actually rule the seven kingdoms. With Bran and Arya both making their way to Winterfell, it appears there may be a happy moment for the star family yet.

South in King's Landing, Cersei has just taken the crown after blowing up all of her enemies including Queen Margery in Sept with wildfire. She continues to have Jamie standing uncomfortably by her side as she waits for the inevitable encounter from Daenerys and her legions.

To close out the conversation, The Cast Beyond the Wall makes their big predictions about who dies in this incredibly high stakes game. They also announce this year's special Fantasy League put on by The Verge. This season your favorite Game of Thrones podcast is going big in ways you won't forget.

Hello, again milords and ladies! Welcome to our special Game of Thrones season 6 wrap up episode of The Cast Beyond the WallThis season was a big game changer in a number of ways, and for better or for worse the meticulous character development we've been used to take a back seat in favor of the breakneck speed of the plot. We finally saw the Greyjoys come back into the fold in the way Austin always wanted and the season even wrapped with Daenerys finally on her voyage to Westeros. This is the season showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss ran out of book material adapt and stepped completely out on their own. 

This season also marked a notable turnaround for women in Westeros. In earlier seasons most of them were repressed by their husbands, the patriarchy of the world, or even by their own missteps, but this year Daenerys, Cersei, Yara Greyjoy, Sansa Stark, and many others claimed the most powerful positions in the world of Game of Thrones. No matter the quality, this will be one of the seasons that define the show in the years to come.

In our special wrap up episode, Austin, Alex, Daniel, and I play a little game to make the season ender a bit more interesting. If you look at the picture below, you can see we have a bracket filled with different storylines from season 6. These storylines will be pitted against each other and the victor will be decided by group vote. To spice things up a big, we give each host the option to use a "Melissandre Resurrection" to bring one storyline back an placed in a separate bracket. In the end, the winner of the original bracket will go up against the winner of the resurrected losers bracket. It's a fun way to wrap up the season discussion!

Game of Thrones season 6 comes to a close with what has now been confirmed as the final episode 10 of the series with The Winds of Winter. This extra long finale was jam-packed with long-awaited reveals, climactic plot twists, and the set up for what looks to be the series' final stretch toward the endgame. The Cast Beyond the Wall is here to help you process what is arguably one of the best hours of TV in the last five years.

It's been a theme running throughout the entire season, but last night cemented the rise to total power for all of our leading ladies including Sansa, Daenerys, and Cersie. Despite Jon being hailed as the new "King ind in the North"," Sansa still holds a key influence in retaking the north for House Stark and likely heading south. Cersei has remained somber for most of this season and it seems we were all correct in assuming that she was going to make a huge bloody action in the name of vengeance. We knew it was going to be huge move, but we never expected her to Michael Corleone the entire Tyrell regime. It was a swift move that's left her with unquestioned power and it came at the cost of her son Tommen and what was left of her humanity.

Austin, Daniel, and I are all very excited to talk about the high bar this episode set for future episodes. This may be the season 6 finale, but The Cast Beyond the Wall will return for at least two more episodes this year! Next week we will be doing a season 6 wrap up with the rest of the GoodTrash gang followed by a special episode taking a closer look at women in Game of Thrones and whether or not the show is actually misogynist(this finale doth protest). Keep your eyes peeled for more!

Tune in!

Game of Thrones never fails to have an eventful episode 9 and season 6's The Battle of the Bastards was no exception. On this week's The Cast Beyond the Wall, Daniel, Austin, and myself break down the highly anticipated battle sequence and whether or not it lives up to some of the other series climactic battles.

Jon Snow has seen white walkers at Hardhome, defended the Wall outmatched a hundred to one, and even been brought back from the dead, but that doesn't make him any less a Stark. Leading up to the Battle, Jon scrapes together a strategy and ignores Sansa's advice not to go into battle. Sansa on the other hand continues to withhold the crucial info about Petyr Baelish's armies from the Eerie. Have Ramsey and Littlefinger compromised the elder Stark or was this just a rookie mistake?

Despite the title of the episode, this week also featured the biggest set piece we've ever seen in Mereen. Danerys rides Drogon and decimates entire ships from The Masters' fleet while Dario leads a full fledged ground assault with the Dothraki horde. Following the flawless victory, Theon and Yara Greyjoy arrive and request independence for the Iron Islands if they support her claim. We take a moment to discuss the issues with the season's continued abbreviation, particularly as it relates to Mereen. Has Dany's time to cross the Narrow Sea FINALLY come? For the sake of my sanity, let's hope so.

The Battle of the Bastards may contain not just one, but two of the finest action set pieces the series has ever seen, but I make the case that it lacks the magical secret sauce that makes Game of Thrones special. Austin and Daniel on the other hand were enamored by the undeniably impressive spectacle.

This week's Game of Thrones leaves us with a podcast divided as The Cast Beyond the Wall debates the vices of the latest episode, No One. As the season comes to a close, we begin to develop our initial reactions to the season as a whole and not everyone agrees with the direction or the pacing of the show has taken on. We're joined again by Alexandra Bohannon of The GoodTrash Genrecast and The Film Syllabus to discuss Arya's rushed ending and Cersei's unclear scheming.

Game of Thrones brought us yet another resurrection this week with the surprising return of fan favorite Sandor "The Hound" Clegane.  With Jon, Benjen, and now our favorite chicken eating killer back is it possible that Westeros is starting to feel a little bit too safe? The Cast Beyond the Wall investigates this phenomenon along with the rest of the big reveals from this week's episode The Broken Man. Austin, Daniel and I give our initial reactions before diving into our scene by scene recap. 

This week was another great table-setter that featured a little bit more of the classic Game of Thrones monologuing that's been lacking in the breakneck pacing of the season so far. Margery proves that she's got the High Sparrow handled in her own way and even sends Lady Olenna Tyrell back to High Garden. Further north, the Starks have apparently discovered a magical means of teleportation as they recruit what's left of the northern houses. 

After suffering from a couple of lame storylines, it looks like Jaime's banishment from King's Landing might be the most interesting thing to happen to him in seasons. He's joined by Bronn as he's forced to retake Riverrun from the Blackfish. For those of you who may have forgotten, Brynden "The Blackfish" Tully, is Catelyn Stark's Uncle who escaped the clutches of The Red Wedding.

We've crossed the halfway mark of Game of Thrones season 6 and the show continues to show no sign of slowing down. Blood of my Blood marks yet another episode of reveals on longstanding mysteries for both book readers and show watchers. The gents of The Cast Beyond the Wall are joined by GoodTrash Media's very own Frightful Femme, Kirsten Therkelson. 

Things pick up with Bran immediately after last week's tragic sacrifice  when he and Meera are rescued by none other than long lost Uncle Benjen Stark. After being attacked by white walkers, he's more zombie now than man, but he remains loyal to the Three-Eyed Raven. We talk a bit about the somewhat anti-climatic reveal as well as the meaning of the flashes of Westerosi history witnessed by Bran.

After a week off, the show returned the wretched hive of scum and villainy of King's Landing. This week saw Margery and Tommen making a deal with the High Sparrow which gave him the upper hand when faced with Jaime and the Tyrell army. It was a surprising turn of events that led to Jaime's being set to Riverrun.

That's right! After nearly fading into obscurity, Game of Thrones is heading back to the Riverlands to revisit the home of one Walder Frey. We discuss what this could mean heading into what appear to be the final chapter of the show.

The ink has dried, the book has been written, and the door has closed on the life of Hodor the half-giant. This week's episode of Game of Thrones suffered one of the most emotional losses the show has seen yet and your hosts at The Cast Beyond the Wall are still cleaning up the tissues leading into this week's show. Hodor's sacrifice in The Door won't be forgotten, but we'd be remiss if we didn't talk about some of the other major turns and reveal throughout the episode. 

The Cast of Caleb, Daniel, and Austin continue their tradition of inviting a guest to the rotating fourth host spot by talking with the director the upcoming Oklahoma film, Electric Nostalgia. When he's not working on releasing his film or producing his interview web series called Talkies, Jacob is also an avid Game of Thrones watcher with more than a few things to say about the series.

This week's conversation has us talking about the unintended consequences of many of our heroes including the fallout between Sansa and Littlefinger, Bran's misuse of his own powers, and the outcome of the highly anticipated Kingsmoot. Before paying last respects to Hodor, we discuss the implications of Brans impact on the past and how this brings an entirely new element of time travel into the show's DNA. What are the new rules and what does the passing of the Three Eyed Raven mean for Bran? 

What are your thoughts on Bran's newfound powers, Hodor's swan song, and the reveal about the white walkers? Join the conversation and let us know what you think!

Game of Thrones season 6 continues to sail its Greyjoy ships full speed ahead in this week's episode Book of the Stranger. Every minute of this episode is packed tight with some of the very best Game of Thrones and The Cast Beyond the Wall brings the fire and the analysis to this week's particularly eventful episode. This week, the Cast is joined by one the co-founders of GoodTrash Media and host of The Film Syllabus, Alexandra Bohannon.

Book of the Stranger featured many crowd pleasing moments, but none as long awaited or emotional as the first Stark Reunion. We laughed, we cried, and somewhere George RR Martin felt a deep disturbance in his source material(probably). At long last, Daniel's dreams of whimsey and Stark victory seemed within grasp right before the rest of the team shuts him down by talking the rather unfortunate demise of Osha at the hands of Ramsey.

Austin coins the term "Post-Martinism" as we discuss the unusually optimistic turn of events in nearly every storyline this week. After being MIA for more than five episodes, Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish returns and it looks like he's bringing his army from the Eerie into the fold. After experiencing a moment of uncharacteristic fanboy excited, I discuss what his move could mean for the wars to come.

If all of the other heartwarming cheer moments weren't enough for you, Daenerys finally returned to form by reminding us all why she doesn't need dragons, unsullied, or knight's to be the epic leader that has been promised. 

Whether its religious zealotry or Game of Thrones failure to the LGBTQ characters, The Cast Beyond the Wall has this an every episode covered. What did you think of Book of the Stranger? Let us know by commenting below!

The Cast Beyond the Wall returns with more Westerosi recapping goodness this week as they give us the breakdown of season 6 episode 3, Oathbreaker. This  Bran's latest dream sequence, Cersei's latest scheme against the Tyrells, and Arya Stark's latest training montage. This week may be lighter on shocking twists and turns, but that doesn't keep it from delivering the old school scheming and verbal sparring that made Game of Thrones a household name.

This week has us delving even further down the R+L=J rabbit hole as Caleb, Austin, and Daniel discuss the highly anticipated battle between Ned Stark and Arthur Dayne. Just before getting to the real meat and potatoes of the flashback, Max von Sydow's Three-Eyed Raven swoops in to remove Bran from the greater mystery of the past. 

The rest of Westeros continues to be in a state of decay as King Tommen continues to be the world's biggest pushover, the small council is divided between Lannister and Tyrell, and the North's leadership is slowly crumbling to the feet of Ramsey Bolton. This week continues to be dialog driven set up with a few surprises including the Jon Snow's final decision as the the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. 

Essos continues to be a real snooze fest with Arya's training spinning its wheels while Daenerys continues to retread her old narrative stomping grounds. 

The show continues to move at a rapid pace and the gang here at The Cast Beyond the Wall are excited to lay out their favorite theories and predictions.

Game of Thrones season 6 returned with a notably strong sophomore outing filled major coups, unexpected plot turns, and even a little bit of Tyrion dragon whispering action. The Cast Beyond the Wall is back to recap, theorize, and analyze the scene by scene break down of a scene by scene betrayals.

This week marks the return of the majorly MIA Greyjoys. After being away from the action for years, it looks the House is back to sow some major storylines. What better way to mark the return of the "winner" of the War of the five kings than a good old fashion pirate mutiny. Austin chimes in with his thoughts on Balon's mysterious brother and what it could mean for later in the season.

There are a number of cool moments including Jaime's standoff with High Sparrow, but the really moving and shaking in this episode was happening in the North. In a shocking turn of events, Ramsey Bolton finally crossed the line and took out Roose. We try to decide how many of the Bolton's numbered days are left. We also can't wrap up the discussion without talking Bran's newfound superpower to look into the past or Jon Snow's awakening. 

What did you think of the closing moments, and will the Greyjoys make a major return this year? Sound off in comments and we'll read your thoughts on air next week!

TCBtW #25 - The Red Woman

After nearly a year of waiting, Game of Thrones has returned to kick off season 6 with a nice bit of set up and a couple of surprising twists in The Red Woman. The Cast Beyond the Wall returns with your guide to all of the biggest moments of the episode followed by some exciting fan theories and analysis looking at what this episode is all about.

The Cast's hosts Caleb Masters, Austin Lucari, and Daniel Stull are joined by Dalton Stuart of The GoodTrash Genrecast and The People's History of Film to travel from the the water gardens of Dorne all the way to the furthest reaches of Mereen in this week's recap.

The Red Woman serves more or less as a pretty standard Game of Throne premiere by checking in with most of the major players while also planting a few seeds for the bigger things yet to come. Showrunners DB. Weiss and David Benioff open with a sequence at the wall that removes any doubt the audience had. Jon Snow is dead. For now. Further south, Jaime and Cersei are reunited to mourn the loss of their daughter Myrcella at the hands of Ellaria Sand. Lena Headey steals the spotlight as the episode's MVP in one of the character's most vulnerable scenes to date.

To cap off the episode, our hosts talk about how this season seems to be pushing the ladies of Westeros to the forefront and the more optimistic tone when compared to the somewhat dour downtrodden tone of season 5.

TCBtW #6 - The First of His Name Review

It's time for another addition to one of the most exciting Game of Thrones conversations on the web with this week's episode of The Cast Beyond the Wall! I'm joined by co-hosts Daniel Stull, Austin Lucari, and special guest host Jessica Martin. 

In this week's episode of the Cast Beyond the Wall, the gang discusses the shocking reveal about Jon Arryn's poisoner and it changes everything we've already seen unfold. Cercei continues her political masterminding as she visits each of Tyrion's judges before the big trial begins. Is everyone's favorite dwarf finally backed into a corner even he can't talk his way out of? 

Lastly, we make sure not to miss a beat in the North's unmapped territory as Bran and Jon come ever closer to that Stark reunion we'll never get to have. Oh yeah, when did Jon versus Karl Tanner turn into Mortal Kombat? Tune in to hear all our thoughts and hear your questions answered!

 In this week's episode of The Cast Beyond the Wall, our hosts Caleb Masters, Daniel Stull, and Austin Lucari discuss the events of the most unforgettable marriage ceremony this side of Westeros with the "Purple Wedding".
