A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms just wrapped its first season and somehow did the impossible — it made us care about Westeros again. On this episode, Abhin, Rohit, and returning guest Falah break down the entire season: from the perfect casting to the moments that wrecked us, from a deep lore dive into the Blackfyre Rebellion to what Summerhall means for this story, and whether you should even bother with House of the Dragon at this point. Come join us as we join Dunk & Egg on a fun adventure in the Ashford Meadow.
⚠️ SPOILER WARNING: We discuss all 6 episodes in detail. Book spoilers from the Dunk & Egg novellas and broader ASOIAF lore from around 34:43 onward.
