In this episode of A Cast of Kings, David Chen, Jessie Earl, and Kim Renfro dive into House of the Dragon’s eighth episode, “The Queen Who Ever Was.”

Why did this episode make us say “Huh” at the end of it? What did we think of Daemon’s storyline this season? Is it too easy for Rhaenyra and Alicent to see each other? Did we think this was a satisfying conclusion to Criston Cole’s storyline this season? And what did we think of this season as a whole? Listen to hear us discuss all these questions and more!
