Episode 250: A FEAST FOR CROWS, THE QUEENMAKER: "Blood on the Sand"

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode, Arianne tries to crown Myrcella, only for her dad's goons to catch up, which is when her boyfriend commits suicide-by-cop. Next time: we return to Braavos for AFFC Arya II, technically the last Arya chapter--get ready to meet the Blind Girl, the Ugly Little Girl, Cat of the Canals, etc. Emmett's twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn Manu's Twitter: https://twitter.com/ManuclearBomb  Manu's patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ManuclearBomb Our patreon: www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF Our merch store: https://notacastasoiaf.threadless.com     Our twitter: twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notacastasoiaf/ 

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode, Brienne follows Nimble Dick into the wilderness and stories of Crackclaw Point, only for neither of them to find what they're looking for.  Next time: we head down to Dorne for Arianne Martell's first POV chapter, "The Queenmaker," which is not an ironic title at all, thanks for asking.

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode, Jaime bids farewell to his father's corpse--and thanks to his still-living relatives, that was the *best* part of his day.  Next time: we stay right here in King's Landing for AFFC Cersei IV, in which she unveils her small council: Harys Swyft, Orton Merryweather, Gyles Rosby...nothing but winners.  Emmett's twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn Manu's Twitter: https://twitter.com/ManuclearBomb  Manu's patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ManuclearBomb Our patreon: www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF Our merch store: https://notacastasoiaf.threadless.com     Our twitter: twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notacastasoiaf/ 

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode: Sam pukes, Gilly cries, the baby poops, and Maester Aemon comes unstuck in time. It's the most miserable quest in the story...until we get to Quentyn, that is. Next time: we return to King's Landing for AFFC Jaime II, in which Tywin's corpse leaves the city, and Jaime is honestly jealous. (Of the leaving part, not the dying part. OK, maybe that too!)  Emmett's twitter: twitter.com/PoorQuentyn Manu's Twitter: https://twitter.com/ManuclearBomb  Manu's patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ManuclearBomb Our patreon: www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF Our merch store: https://notacastasoiaf.threadless.com     Our twitter: twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF   Our Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notacastasoiaf/

Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire! In this episode, Arys Oakheart is treason-level horny, but at least he feels suicidally shameful about it.  Next time: we hit the road again with Dunk and Egg 2.0, Brienne and Pod, for AFFC Brienne III.
