In this sixteenth episode of Learned Hands, the Official Podcast of the Westerosi Bar Association, Maester Merry & Clint from Laws of Ice and Fire ask: If the election happened in modern America, was the election of Lord Commander Jon Snow legitimate?
Our analysis this week includes:
Learned Hands returns to the Night’s Watch for the first time in a WHOLE YEAR, since our very first episode!
Everyone makes very fucking measured and balanced arguments about the Electoral College, the 2020 Election, and Rudy Guiliani
Just kidding.
As per usual, Clint shoehorns Natural Rights philosophers into a completely unrelated discussion.
Merry goes Full Kornacki.
So many absurd and frankly offensively bad accents.
Your hosts dig in on the similarities between the Night’s Watch electoral procedures and the American constitutional doctrine of One Person One Vote.
Deep details about the way Nights Watch elections do and perhaps should work.
Merry side-eyes the fuck outta Sam Tarly and defends Stannis Baratheon.
