604 - Book of the Stranger
Jim and A.Ron, after careful sober analysis, declare “Book of the Stranger” an awesome episode of HBO’s Game of Thornes. In an impressive display of girl power, Sansa and Jon team up to take back the North, Cersie and the Queen of Thorns conspire to take back King’s Landing, Yara helps her brother find his spine, Dany flips braziers and sets fire to many a Khal’s ambition, and Osha… well, Osha finds that there are still limits to what a gal can get away with in Westeros, but we’re mostly okay with that because it seems like Ramsey already has a noose around his neck and doesn’t even know it. And that’s not even the half of it. Pink letters, Tormund and Brienne shipping, Littlefinger scheming, and much more coming straight up.Don’t forget, we’re not done! We’ll be back Friday with our SpoiLore podcast where we take a deep dive into the myth and legend within the pages of the A Song of Ice and Fire series, and try to examine the signs and portents within to see where we’re going on this crazy ride.This week’s podcast is sponsored by the folks at Casper.

604 - Book of the Stranger - Instant Take
After seeing episode 604 of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “Book of the Stranger”, Jim wants to shout from the rooftops “TARGARYENS ARE FIREPROOF!!” I desperately want to argue with him, but he’s right. About this particular Targaryen in this TV show version of Westeros, anyway, and it was admittedly cool. Me, I liked the emotional heft and tingles from the Sansa and Jon reunion, the Theon and Yara/Asha reunion, I even enjoyed the Littlefinger / Robin reunion was fairly awesome. Very interesting to see what people ultimately think of this episodes, especially book fans… has Martin been lying to us this whole time, or are the Double Ds making some smart and cinema friendly edits? We’ll talk more on the full podcast coming out Tuesday!PS: We had a microphone mishap that made our audio quality not quite up to our usual standards, for which we apologize. We’ll have it squared away before the next recording.Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald MoveLeave Us A ReviewJoin the discussion: Email | Forums | Facebook | TwitterTheme song: Game of Thrones (80’s TV Theme) by Highway Superstar Learn more about your ad choices.

602 - Home
Episode 602 of HBO’s Game of Thrones, “Home”, is just a stellar hour of television. For once, it seems like everyone is on (or off?) the same page, with delights for show watchers and book readers of every stripe. Tyrion’s risky gamble, the Bolton empire rapidly crumbling, giants of all shapes and sizes smashing all the heads, there is a lot to take in and discuss and we try our level best to talk about it all, with the help of a Wun Wun sized mail bag. Don’t forget, we’re just half way through our Game of Thrones week here at Bald Move, with our SpoiLORE podcast coming out Friday, so if you have a bookish and speculative take by all means let us have it. And then, Sunday will be upon us once again.

602 - Home - Instant Take
Jim and A.Ron struggle to process the events that transpire in the wide ranging and absolutely packed episode 602, “Home”. Jaw dropping, shocking, and inspirational, there is just so much to unpack that it’s almost unfair that we have to give our instant reactions, but that’s what we’re here for! And we’ll be back Tuesday, with another few watches under our belt, and we’re sure that everyone out there has lots to say. I can’t even imagine what the SpoiLORE edition is going to be like, ye gods, but it’s going to be a fun week. A really, really long week, because if you’re anything like us, you’d give about a month’s pay to be able to watch episode 603 right now. But as the newly acceptable Three Eyed Raven says, it’s beautiful under the sea, but if you stay there you’ll binge watch, er, I mean drown. See you in two short days!Support Bald Move: Amazon | Club Bald MoveLeave Us A ReviewJoin the discussion: Email | Forums | Facebook | TwitterTheme song: Game of Thrones (80’s TV Theme) by Highway Superstar Learn more about your ad choices.
