Summary

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode, we take a quick post-Red Wedding break from ASOIAF to talk about Season 3 of Game of Thrones, since we've been covering the material adapted for that season. Next time: ASOS Tyrion VI, in which Tyrion suffers through his loveless marriage before learning how bad a wedding can really get.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the NataCast podcast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through a song of ice and fire, but not here.
0:29.2	I'm one of your host, Manu, also known as Manuclear Bomb.
0:32.4	And I'm your other host, Emmett, also known as Poor Quentin.
0:35.3	Welcome to a very special episode of the NataCast titled, Chaos is a Ladder.
0:41.2	A look back at Game of Thrones Season 3, where the HBO adaptation really cemented itself into the pop culture pantheon.
0:48.4	Did you know they made books based on this show? I didn't know that.
0:51.2	Yeah, yeah, I heard they got George R. Martin to come take a look at the TV scripts and kind of
0:55.6	turn it into something workable just to, you know, get out at airport so people can read on a plane.
1:00.5	Exactly. With the show characters on the cover, smart move. Good tie-ins. Good, good call, HBO.
1:05.3	And our spoiler warning, as always is, we'll be talking about all published books, the five novels, three Duncan egg novellas, histories, interviews, The Winds of Winter sample chapters, House of the Dragon,

1:31.1	which I think was initially structured through its first three seasons to get to this point
1:35.4	specifically.
1:36.9	David and Dan wanted to get to the massacre at the Twins, and we can see the show's production
1:41.4	and storytelling changes after season three as well, in part
1:44.9	because of how impactful the show's Red Wedding was on pop culture, which was, in fact,
1:50.3	10 years ago this summer, which again makes it a good point to look back on, after the show has
1:55.5	kind of finished and a new one has begun in House of the Dragon. Thrones was a hit with the
2:00.5	critics and audiences early on, but it was never really a for sure
2:04.2	thing in terms of being renewed season to season. But the Red Wedding not only broke the
2:09.3	brains of all the people watching, but created enough of a buzz at the water cooler and on
