Episode 36: A GAME OF THRONES, DAENERYS IV: "The Holy Mountain"

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 unpack AGOT, Daenerys IV in which Dany and the gang arrive at the “ancient, arrogant, and empty” city of Vaes Dothrak, where in a shocking turn of events, Viserys is an asshole.. This week, we: - Talk about Dany's identity conflict between Targaryen and Dothraki - Dany's education as a Khaleesi - Viserys' racism and arrogance and how his role as "Cart King" seems an honor to him in very Westerosi fashion (but it isn't) - The belt Dany whacks Viserys with and its symbolic importance - Why Viserys' villainy is not for the best - Dany's TWOW Dothraki arc Next week: AGOT, Bran V!
