In this episode of A Cast of Kings, David Chen, Jessie Earl, and Kim Renfro dive into House of the Dragon’s fifth episode, “Regent.”

This week deals with the sprawling aftermath of the events of last week’s battle. What were the storylines and moments that resonated the most? How do Alicent and Rhaenyra’s plotlines mirror each other? Is Daemon’s storyline working for us at all? And why is George R. R. Martin so mad about the way dragons are depicted in this show? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more!
