Hi! We are Ragman’s Harbour, the official podcast of the Planetosi Exchange Programme, a new podcast dedicated to discussing real-life historical and cultural parallels to ASOIAF, from a non-Anglo perspective.
Because we, Virginie and Lo, come from non-English speaking countries although we use English as our common language

In this episode, your hosts take you once more to the delightful (or not) realm of political deaths. Some of them just stop being alive, some are murdered, some experience chop chop, but all men must die -kings, princes who are also kings, men who used to be kings, people who got rid of kings, people who didn't want to get rid of kings, people who are not monarchs too.
Also, Virginie needs to come clean: she said "kings" were banned from the streets of Paris but she meant "pigs" 😅 (also, as her voice testifies, she was sick and deserves a break. Same for that time she forgets a key word in a sentence but it still makes sense)
Tell your friends and even your enemies about this episode in real life and on social media, and if you liked what you hear, leave us a firework of stars and rave about us in a review on your podcast app of choice.
Also, check out our Patreon! Virginie reads LOTR for the first time and is currently finding Jesus, you do not* want to miss it! (*or maybe you do) (up to you!)

Virginie talks about the death of Philippe de France and the French Revolution. She hated the exercise of concision about a whole goddam war fought inside and outside the country so resorted to videos for high school students and the like:
