4:00.0	Oh goodness discussion that we're going to have today. You're a medievalist, right? I am. I'm a medievalist and an early modernist, strictly speaking. I work on kind of I work on medieval stuff. I work on early modern stuff. I work on Shakespeare. I also work on popular medievalism. So I have actually edited a book on the original Game of Thrones. I've written a bunch of articles about a song of ice and fire. And the book that I just finished that just came out a couple of weeks ago.
4:30.0	Has a chapter on a song of ice and fire, but also talks about a bunch of other relatively contemporary fantasy books, including the Devabad trilogy, which I love. You know, I'm a fan too. And all for the priori, the priori of the orange tree, which is also wonderful. So lots of good stuff in there.
4:49.0	Yeah, I love both of those books. I can recommend them as well. And I have. So yes, that that's a great read to pick up. And you've also been covering the series on your word plot on your WordPress blog, though, too, right?
4:59.0	I have. Yes, I do recaps once a week for each episode. They tend to focus very much on Rainier and Allison because Queen ship and feminist historiography is kind of my thing. It's my wheelhouse. It's one of it's what I did by PhD on.
5:17.0	So I tend to kind of focus in on those. If you want kind of military stuff, I am not the person. But if you want court intrigue, history, weird stuff like that. And lots and lots of talking about feminism. That's that's what I do.
5:34.0	Well, that is absolutely right down the middle for what this not just this season, but this episode is bringing and a lot of the discourse around it. So that is really perfect.
5:42.0	You've also done a little bit of podcasting about our flag means death, which I bring up because I've got an our flag means that's shirt on an honor of that.
5:51.0	What a great show.
5:52.0	Yes, that's right. It is a fantastic show. And I am part of a podcast called the shipping cast.
6:01.0	We have been. Yeah, it's a good name. We were originally the shipping forecast, but then we found out there was already a podcast called the shipping forecast.
6:09.0	We had to change it. But we are now the shipping cast. And we have a couple of episodes out, but we are hoping to get some more out soon.
6:18.0	You got some time before season two comes out.
6:20.0	Yeah.
6:21.0	Exactly.
6:22.0	That's fantastic.
