Take the Black Live: We squint fruitlessly at pictures from Magheramorne Quarry

Welcome to Take the Black Live, where we merry nerds at Winter is Coming sit down to talk through the latest bits of Game of Thrones and Song of Ice and Fire news. We go through this song and dance every Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. CST, streaming live from the WiC Facebook page. Hope to see you there!

This week’s topics include:

• HBO is once again partnering with MLB to bring Game of Thrones theme nights to a baseball stadium near you.
• We discuss SPOILERS coming out of the season 8 set at Magheramorne Quarry, including a big one about Jaime and Brienne.
• Spoilers are pouring out of Magheramorne Quarry at a fast clip, including a steady stream of behind-the-scenes images. Watch as we squint at these pictures and I mistake a dude spraying smoke over the set for Peter Dinklage. Hopefully we uncover some truth while we’re at it.
• George R.R. Martin is playing games with A Song of Ice and Fire fans, and Kayla is having none of it.

All that and we have another installment of A Song of Dan and Josh, where Josh Hill and I talk through two more chapters from A Game of Thrones: Eddard IX and Daenerys VI.

And yes, I realize that other, newer revelations have come out since we recorded this — the march of time stomps over us all.

Thanks for watching!
