Summary

Hello and welcome back 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, in which the princess in the tower is sought out by two brave knights who want to spirit her away to freedom. Well, neither of them are knights. And both are completely fucking drunk. This week, we: -Discuss theories we hope to be WRONG about (a new concept for Jeff) -Use Dontos' letter to show how Sansa is gradually maturing in her worldview -Talk about the imagery of chivalry and how it changes as both character and audience age -Compare and contrast Dontos and Sandor, Sansa's not-knights in non-shining armor -Marvel at how differently this chapter reads when you come back knowing who pays Dontos (namely, Littlefinger) Next week, we jump back to the Riverlands, where Arya and her companions are trying to get by without any adults. It’s going about as well as you might expect.    Our patreon: www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our twitter: twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/289889118235797/   Our youtube page: www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmDfPdG…iew_as=subscriber   Emmett's twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn   Jeff's twitter: twitter.com/BryndenBFish

Yeah, 90th episode of the Nauticast titled Beauty and the Beasts, plural, an analysis of a

Clash King, Sonsa, too, in which the princess in the tower, who is not Ariane, is sought out by

0:45.3

two brave knights who want to spirit her away to freedom.

Well, neither of them are exactly knights, and, well, both of them are completely fucking drunk.

Gosh, Sonsa, can you catch a break

sometime? She just really can't when it comes to her rescuers, can she, Emmett? There's just no way

out for Sandsa Stark. The constant mood of this chapter is her shrugging her shoulders and going,

oh, it's just disappointment all the way down. It is seemingly every single time we engage

1:09.7

with the Sonsa It is constant disappointments.

1:12.5

Hopefully that'll pick up for her at some point.

This is a bleak business we've gotten ourselves into, Jeff.

1:23.0

What were we thinking?

1:24.0

I don't know.

1:24.9

I guess we're just bleak people ultimately. I think it's coming down. That's the subtext. You're not supposed to tell them that, Jeff. We're supposed to
