Explore every episode of the podcast Everyone Hates Rewatches

Game of Thrones Season 1 Episode 4 "Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things" and Episode 5 "The Wolf and the Lion"

Emma loves Game of Thrones, Charli is watching it for the first time.

This week we're covering episodes four and five of season one — and it turns out Game of Thrones has a thesis. The women in Westeros are trapped by their lack of power. The men are trapped by the weight of it. Nobody is free. Not even the king.

We get into:

Tyrion's saddle for Bran

Samwell Tarly arriving at the Wall, and why he is obviously already dead according to Charli

Lysa Arryn's absolutely unhinged-but-completely-logical power move (you'll know it when you see it)

The Robert & Cersei scene and Lyanna Stark haunting the narrative

Renly and Loras, the ones we are rooting for

Varys vs. Littlefinger: a masterclass in mutual blackmail

Predictions for the back half of the season, including who's dying first

Plus: was GoT actually based on the Wars of the Roses, and does that mean we can predict the plot? (We immediately agree not to look it up.)

Everyone Hates Me is hosted by two sisters unpacking gender, pop culture, and politics. This rewatch feed runs alongside our main podcast — if this episode's themes are your thing, the main feed is the same conversation without the dragons.
