Hello everyone and welcome to a cast of Kings, an unofficial podcast about the HBO

original series Game of Thrones.

I'm David Chen and I've never read any of the books in George R.R. Martin's A Song of

Ice and Fire.

My name is Joanna Robinson and I've read every book in George R. Martin's A Song of

Ice and Fire.

And welcome to the show ladies and gentlemen, if you're just tuning in for the first time,

you should know you can find more of our episodes at Game of Thrones podcast.com.

You can also email us and let us know what you think of the podcast and of the show at

a cast of Kings at Gmail.com.

That's a cast of Kings at Gmail.com.

And if you don't know what we do here, we will spoil everything through this week's episode

of Game of Thrones.

Talk about everything through the episode and that does not include, however, anything

airing after the show.

This week we're going to be spoiling everything through season four, episode two, entitled

The Lion and the Rose.
