Summary

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week! In this episode, Theon keeps on being the worst person in the world, only for someone even worse to show up and break his face. This week, we: - Praise the intimate urgency of George's writing - Shake our heads as Theon miserably fails at leadership, yet again - Put Theon's actions into context with his backstory - Shudder as the Bastard of Bolton arrives to burn it all down - Break apart the layers of the Reek-Ramsay twist Next week: we stagger drunkenly headfirst into Zack Snyder's Justice League!

1:22.2	It'd be sad.
1:25.7	Yeah, that sounds very sad and very terrifying and horrifying and horrifying as well.
