Monday Sep 13, 2021
Monday Sep 13, 2021
Bloodrider Kat joins Scad and Matt to discuss Daenerys IX of ADWD. Queens, Kings, dying palanquin bearers, pit fighting, spicy locusts, ornery pit fighting commentators, and... DROGON. Yes, the big black dragon makes a return in this episode after disappearing, and we are here for it. What does it mean for Dany, what does it mean for Meereen? This is a crucial chapter for Dany as she finally allows her broiling feelings to take control and becomes the dragon once again.
Also and more importantly, guess what, we get to know bloodrider Kat. A delightful conversation about her nerdy pursuits and family will be sure to have you giggling, so give it a listen!
We will be back again in 3 weeks with our next installment of our Meet the Khalasar series. So get back with us then!
For Patrons, we are focusing on the I Am Mercury series at the moment, so look again in a couple weeks for our coverage of Book IV: Control Z. This is an exciting thriller with many twists and turns. It has been a delight to cover, so come give it a listen on patreon.com/davosfingers.

Welcome to Episode 113 of the Davos’ Fingers podcast where Bloodrider Lizzy has us tackling The Lost Lord in ADWD. Is Jon Connington being rash? Is Aegon a quality leader in the making? Can the Golden Company be trusted to honor their agreement? The answer to these questions and more are properly ignored inside. However we do have a lot of fun! Also, and most importantly, we get to know Lizzy a bit. Has Matt finally met his match with regard to quoting the Office? You will have to listen to find out.
The podcast is going on a break for June and July, but will be back with more fabulous content in August including a continuation of our Meet The Khalasar series and more coverage of Grant Piercy’s work, “I am Mercury” coming for Patrons.

Monday Apr 12, 2021
Marcus joins the Fingers for this episode covering one of his favorite chapters: A Ghost in Winterfell. Together, we dive into the mysteries presented in this chapter where bodies start turning up without explanation and conflicts arise without need for explanation. Mystery is afoot, but so is psychological trauma. So buckle in for a headier chapter of ASOIAF. Also, we get to know Marcus, a possibly lesser known soul in the fandom, but his soul is that of a poet. Listen in to be dazzled like we were!

Episode 109: Someone Always Tells with Bobbie
Monday Mar 01, 2021
Monday Mar 01, 2021
Someone Always Tells, and I am here to tell you that this episode featuring Bloodrider Bobbie is a delight. We delve deeply on The Princess in the Tower chapter of A Feast for Crows. Just how impatient is Arianne? Just how patient is Doran? And what is the actual underlying conflict in this chapter that is far more important than the insurrection attempted by Arianne in the deserts of Dorne. In this chapter, we learn a lot about what really drives Arianne as she approaches madness brought on by her solitude. We also get to know Bobbie a lot better, and such a joy it was! Listen to the Doctor dive in with some special insights about about what George gets right medically!
Meet the Khalasar will continue in three weeks with Bloodrider Virginie! So join us for more fun and to get better acquainted with more friends in the fandom.

Episode 108: Renly's Peach with Justin
Monday Feb 08, 2021
Monday Feb 08, 2021
Justin joins Matt and Scad for Episode 108 where we meet the feisty Ser Cortnay Penrose and deal with some of Stannis’ inner demons, maybe even his shadow. Stannis seeks surrender from a force well-protected behind the massive walls of Storm’s End, but Ser Cortnay isn’t having it. However, Stannis has Melisandre, a priestess of R’hllor, on his side and is willing to resort to...other methods. We spend the other half of the episode learning about our friend Justin. A family focused lover of Batman and Star Wars, Justin fits right in!

Monday Jan 18, 2021
In episode 107, bloodrider Katrina joins Matt and Scad to discuss Bran II from A Storm of Swords. In this chapter we get the legendary story of the Knight of the Laughing Tree, but so much more. We get history of the hills and locals, we get arguments about traveling by road, we get a meal of sausage and oatcakes, and we get skingchanging...attempts...ok, so it's MOSTLY the Knight of the Laughing Tree. But what a story! The real pleasure of this episode is getting better acquainted with Katrina. From her illustrious career counting coppers to her hilarious stories about her family, she is a treasure and we hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did.

We introduce a new format in this episode: Meet the Khalasar. The whole goal of this format is to learn more about some of our friends, while delving deeply into each Bloodrider’s favorite chapter. The first entry features Misa, our Queen of Gifs and Beauty, as we review her favorite chapter: Sansa VII from A Storm of Swords. We explore Sansa’s growth, her confidence, and her loneliness against the backdrop of unwanted advances from Petyr and truly unwarranted accusations from her troubled Aunt Lysa. It’s a beautiful and iconic chapter and Misa joined in like an old pro. We hope you enjoy!
