Episode 11: A GAME OF THRONES, JON II: "Catelyn Might Have Done Something Wrong Right There"

Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week! Today, Emmett and Jeff are pleased to present you with "Catelyn Might Have Done Something Wrong Right There: An Analysis of AGOT, Jon II": a three-act chapter which has Jon leaving Winterfell forever (but probably not) This week, we talk: - Answers to some of your burning questions - Jon's illusions being dashed in his farewells to Winterfell - Jon's outsider role as a defining force in the entirety of his arc - The excellent three-act structure of the chapter - Subtle warging hints! - "Stick 'em with the pointy end" and its importance for Arya - Our Independence Day/ASOIAF mashup - And finally and not at all controversially, we tackle the question of "Is Catelyn Stark evil or a bitch or abusive to Jon Snow?" This is a meaty episode. Next Week: Daenerys Targaryen gets married in barbarian splendor!
