Take the Black podcast: Season 7 premiere date, new teaser, ice-gate, and more

facebooktwitterreddit

Welcome back to another episode of Take the Black, Winter is Coming’s Game of Thrones podcastThis week, we discuss the Game of Thrones season 7 premiere date, the first official teaser of the season, the size of Dany’s dragons, and other information gleaned from the Game of Thrones panel at South by Southwest.

More on our topics:

  • HBO’s terrible idea to reveal the season 7 premiere date by slowly melting a block of ice.
  • Season 8 will only have six episodes. We have a variety of reactions.
  • Is there a Game of Thrones spinoff coming, and who will manage it?
  • We read WAY too much into the symbolism behind the “sigil teaser,” and discuss each House’s role in the wars to come.

As usual, Take the Black leans on the NSFW side (beware of F-bombs). Also, there are SPOILERS for Game of Thrones season 7 in there, and a healthy bit of speculation. Proceed with caution.
