Now that was a great easter egg, props to you Gearhalt
Completely off-topic but I would be interested in your thoughts. I would love to see FFG put out an app to play their games over internet connected devices (computer or tablet). You could then get a code in packs you buy to download the content, or you could just purchase the packs in app at a discounted rate. I feel it would open new play avenues and expand each games reach.
Vomitoria are the passages that allow entry (typically into a large public space or stadium), because they would rapidly "spew forth" tremendous numbers of people.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the Varys/Shae moment in E10 - decidedly out of character with Varys's later behaviour in the books and with what you discussed on a previous episode.
@Ire- Thanks. I thought that was a particularly amusing moment.

@Awritt- I've thought for awhile that such a scheme would be awesome for FFG. I've played the games that they have available for Android before, and they've been very high quality. If they could bring that same level to a digital LCG experience it would be awesome, but as far as I understand it, FFG's digital department is pretty small.

@Istaril- Nicely done! You both filled in the gap in our recollection of vomitoria while simultaneously correcting our Anglicized pluralizing of them as "vomitoriums." Well played, ser!

With regards to the show...
Spoiler
I have not read past book one, and have only watched seasons 1 and 2 of the show so far...how "safe" is the podcast to listen to? Is there a point where I can stop listening like last weeks?

I think it was around 30 minutes in they do a transition into talking about the HBO show, so you'll want to stop there to avoid spoilers.
Yup, I tried to make sure that it was segregated like that.
Totally agree about the writers of the show bungling the part about Davos and the Wall. It was a great, very moving speech/argument made by Davos to Stannis in the books. Should have just spouted some of that off nearly verbatim in the show...
I know! That would have made for a great scene!
Great episode guys keep it up. Also keep us posted on the "showdown" between you guys and the other podcast that shall not be named ;)
I think we learned that even though Darryl will take almost anything beyond the bounds of offensive he becomes troubled when making fun of our friends to the North and to the West. Who knew?
