Hello and welcome to the Dadacastast, podcast, the podcast that usually goes through a song of ice and fire one chapter week and does a monthly Patreon-only episode for all $5.00 above patrons.

But not here. Oh, no, not here. I'm your host, Jeff, then it is Bernie B. Fish.

And I'm your other host, Emmett, that are known as Poor Quentin.

And we are here today to talk about Game of Thrones, Season 8, episode 4,

The Last of the Starks, which was an episode which essentially reset the board

and prepared us for the end game question we've all been waiting for resolution on.

Will Bron actually get High Garden?

I'm on the edge of my seat, Jeff,

as I know you are. It's interesting. I think a lot of people liked the Long Night, Episode 3,

better than we did for a lot of good reasons. And I feel like I liked this episode somewhat

more than a lot of people did, because this episode has proven very divisive and a lot of people

hated it. And I think that might just be because my expectations were so high going into the Battle of Winterfell.

Yeah.

Because episode two was so great and I was so pumped to see the showdown with the White Walkers.

So maybe my expectations were a little too high.

And for this one, I was going and expecting really nothing.

So the fact that we got some decent material made me happier than I should

probably be about it. Yeah, but it's funny. I think I didn't have high expectations for this

episode. So I felt like that this episode exceeded kind of the ground floor expectations that I had.

It did feel like a lot of the plot tension was significantly deflated by the fact that the long night

occurred prior to this episode.

But maybe that's what George has planned as well.
