Think back to the last time you heard someone talking about Jon Snow, Danerys Targaryen, or Tyrion Lannister? Binge-watching the final season with your eyebrows permanently raised and wondering if you missed a PD session on plot twists? Maybe you were dodging spoilers like arrows at the Battle of the Bastards, or rewatching the Red Wedding to confirm that, yes, it was that traumatic. Or maybe you were listening to a trio of edu-podcasters drawing some fiery parallels between Westeros and the world of professional learning.
Whatever the case may be, let's hop back on the dragon and soar into all the political intrigue, power plays, and unexpected character arcs of Game of Thrones—to revisit the connections we made back in 2021.

In the 2008 pop anthem “Circus”, Britney sings “There's only two types of people in the world
The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe”; however, in this season 1 throwback episode, we asserted that those in the observe camp likely are caught in the Apathy Zone.
In this episode, we considered research about zones of optimal learning and also more Toxic zones that keep people’s heads slippin’ under with anxiety and yes, apathy. When it comes to learning, we all better work, not just sit back and watch. If you like your discussions of social psychology and learning theory balanced with song lyrics and red pleather jumpsuits, you’re in the right spot.
