“Join IAFC organizer Tara, Small Council member Chloe, and Wendy (@thewendynerd) for a meaty discussion of all things cannibalistic in ASOIAF: What really goes on on Skagos?

Episode 36 of The Geek Saga Podcast includes live audio from the Dragon Con High Fantasy track’s “Nailed It or Failed It: Game of Thrones Character Arcs” panel at Dragon Con 2019.
I was super excited about this panel and only regret that it was scheduled for Monday morning of Dragon Con (of all times) because it being the last day of the convention, many of us (namely me, ha!) weren’t at the top of our game. Still, it was fun to get some audience involvement on whether the show nailed it or failed it when portraying the ASOIAF characters we love, hate, or love to hate. Stay tuned for the Ice & Fire Con 2020 version of this one, that’s for sure!
