Episode notes
Game of Thrones is back so we talk about “learning to Cersei”, ask whether a TV show can ever have enough incest and get into the wonders of sexposition. Plus we name the pieces of culture we initially disliked but then came to love.
With Guy Branum, Oliver Wang and Margaret Wappler.
That’s My Jam:
Oliver Wang – Warm and Tender Love by Percy Sledge
Margaret Wappler – Fourth of July by Sufjan Stevens
Each week we’ll add everyone’s jams to this handy Spotify playlist.
