Okay, not really. But myself and cohost Josh Hill, filling in for Cheryl Wassenaar of Culturess, do get into it about whether upcoming fantasy shows are justified in banning Game of Thrones actors from their casts, which is a thing that’s happening now. Which side of the debate do you fall on? Watch the episode above and let us know!
