Hello and welcome to the non-cast, podcast, the one true chapter by chapter podcast going through a song of Icy Fire one chapter week.

I'm your host Jeff, better ones going to be fish.

And I'm your other host, Emmett, better known as Poor Quentin.

And welcome to the 167th episode

The Not a Cast titled, The Terror, Part 2,

an analysis of a Storm of Sword, Samuel 1,

in which Samwell has a really bad time,

but at the very end, the Slayer arises.

The Sleeper has awakened, yes indeed.

So last week, in our first of two episodes on a Storm of Sword, Samwell I, we covered

the basics, including the structure of the chapter, the tone, how we feel about getting

into Sam as a POV, and in this episode, we're going to get more into the meat of the rest

of the chapter, dealing at length with what actually went down at the fist of the first men, and then catching back up in the present moment as Sam and his

companions confront the White Walker. It's going to be a blast. Three horns full for this chapter.

So, as always, this episode is brought to you by our not a small council, our Hand of the King,

Wolfman, Zach, Grand Master Timbob, troubleshoot of systems,

and designer of circuit boards, Lord Commander of Kingsguard, Mark N, Sir Keith J, Master Whisperors,
