"Regent" & "Smallfolk" (HOTD S2E5&6) (ACOIAF #14)

In this scorching episode of A ’Cast of Ice and Fire, Fiona and Emma dissect House of the Dragon Season 2, Episodes 5 & 6—where the realm is in chaos, allegiances are as flimsy as a Targaryen marriage vow, and no one is safe (especially if they have a dragon).Between battles and betrayals, we dive deep into Daemon’s increasingly ominous dreams—because nothing says “coping mechanism” like cryptic Targaryen visions of doom. Meanwhile, Aemond isn’t waiting around for Aegon to recover, stepping up as the real power behind the throne (and let’s be honest, probably enjoying it way too much). Criston Cole may have the title of Hand, but his grip on reality? Not so strong. As the pressure of war mounts, his past actions—murder, war crimes, and a lifetime of bad decisions—start catching up with him, leading to some very unstable leadership moments. Fiona and Emma also take a lore-filled detour into the history of dragon dreams, past and present Targaryen rulers who may or may not have lost their minds over them, and what this could mean for Daemon’s fate.Fiona and Emma bring the jokes, the drama, and the inevitable heartbreak as they try to pick apart who’s winning, who’s losing, and who’s about to be roasted alive next. Grab your wildfire whiskey and prepare for some hot takes—because, much like Westeros, this podcast is descending into madness.
