House of the Dragon, Season 3: Episode 4 "Tumbleton"

House of the Dragon, Season 3: Episode 4 "Tumbleton"

Spencer and Lee mount their wild dragons this week to journey to Tumbleton, visiting with a rather rude Commander, Lord Ormund Hightower. They differ a bit on their thoughts about this episode. Spencer highlighted a few scenes that really worked for him, and Lee took every opportunity through 85 minutes to convey his disappointment in the script writing. At the end, they start to frame what they think HotD's legacy will be in the larger Westeros-verse.

Silo Season 3: Episode 2: "It's All Good"

Spencer and Lee descend into the down deep to tackle season 3, episode 2 "of the Apple+ TV series "Silo" titled "It's All Good." Lee is sick in this one, and has a hoarse voice, so apologies in advance if the audio is a little rough. He's drinking plenty of Vitamin D+ laced hot tea and should be back to shipshape next week. Lee continues to enjoy the flashbacks and Spencer thinks the Congressman isn't worthy of a mailroom position (or apparently air?). This was a fun one.

House of the Dragon, Season 3: Episode 3 "Rhaenyra Triumphant"

The Queen sits the Iron Throne and it looks like she's ready to one-star the position. Ruling isn't all it's cracked up to be in this mid-season (!!) episode of Season 3 of House of the Dragon. Spencer and Lee start the discussion by giving updates on their general feelings about the show: what, at a macro-level, is working, what are areas of concern, and what the season needs to do the rest of the way. Spencer (sort of) admits he's wrong and Lee really digs in on the acting performances. Good times all around.

Silo Season 3: Episode 1: "Who Are you?"

Spencer and Lee descend back into the Silo (and turn the clock back) for an absolutely compelling premiere of season 3 of the Apple TV+ series "Silo." Both Spencer and Lee were impressed with the premiere, although Spencer (predictably) has quibbles with one huge trope (yes, that one). Spencer also works in a recommendation for the original Tarzan novels. MTTV will be covering each and every episode of Silo season 3, hope you join us. Fair warning- Lee wasn't feeling well this episode... He promises to tighten things up and make Mayor Juliette (who is totally, actually Juliette) proud with his performance next week.

House of the Dragon, Season 3: Episode 2 "Queen's Landing"

It's go time Team Black, but at what cost (tm). Spencer and Lee review a thoroughly enjoyable episode of House of the Dragon- Rhaynera mourns (and conquers), the Sea Snake gets settled into being poor (again), Caraxes and Syrax get fresh, and Daemon is simultaneously awesome and moronic. *Lots* to discuss in this jam packed episode. Warning- Spencer's audio is bad this week (he's traveling), we forgive him for this, but. not for his bad Alicent takes. Check us out at www.mangumtalks.com or mangumtalkspodcasts@gmail.com or facebook.com/mangumtalks. Please review us and let us know what you think! If you must give a one star review, please make sure it references Spencer's poor takes.
