Here’s a rundown of our topics:

  • Was Melisandre a low-key MVP of this episode?
  • The Dothraki are all gone because they got excited about fire swords. Was this a terrible strategic move by Daenerys and Jon? Yes. Yes it was.
  • The dragons should have been used first.
  • We didn’t lose enough characters in this episode.
  • Arya killed the Night King! We break down the moment and detail the ways her journey has always been leading to this. Those fans crying that Arya is a Mary Sue haven’t been paying attention for seven-and-a-half seasons.

As is the case with every episode of the Take the Black Podcast, we tend to lean very NSFW, so watch out for falling F-bombs. You have been warned.

We want to hear from you: What did you think of “The Long Night?” Did it live up to the hype? Did enough characters die to slake your thirst for blood? How do you feel about Arya killing the Night King? Let’s discuss in the comments.
