It's time to talk the second episode of season 7, so Andrew and Manu discuss Euron's manic sea battle (specifically Theon's trauma and Yara's reaction), Dany and Tyrion's decision-making regarding invasion strategy, Jaime's efforts to convince Randyll Tarly to join Cersei's side, Arya's interactions with Hot Pie and Nymeria, Sam's attempts to cure Jorah, political infighting in the North, and Melisandre's surprising meet-up with Dany and company.

Needless to say, Euron wasn't being subtle when he told his brother, "I am the storm."

The 7th season of Game of Thrones has arrived! Andrew and Manu review the episode with thoughts on various parts, like Arya's show-stealing cold open and its implications, Sam's conversation with the Archmaester at the Citadel, the Jon/Sansa Karstark-Umber debate, the Hound's soul-search with the Brotherhood at the home of the family he left to die in season 4, the #rebranded Euron, Jaime coming to terms with Cersei's growing delusion (what dynasty??), and Dany's silent entrance to Dragonstone. 

They also discussed Bran's vision of the undead army and his arrival at the Wall, as well as episode 2 hype (NYMERIA?!). Yes, Ed Sheeran briefly came up, too. We have very tepid takes.

Even though this podcast episode takes place just before "The Wolf and the Lion," there is plenty of Stark vs. Lannister in this one alone. Andrew and Manu talk as Cersei tries to figure out Ned's game in King's Landing and Cersei forces an arrest on a recently-arriving Tyrion at the Inn at the Crossroads. The latter is an especially juicy scene, so away we go.

Season 7 full-episode reviews are up next!

Long episode for Andrew and Manu this week, as they watch Dany stand up to Viserys, Jorah talk to her about him, and Littlefinger explain the origins of Sandor Clegane's scars. Along the way, they delve into House Baelish's past and discuss whether or not Littlefinger knew that Gregor Clegane would kill Ser Hugh (#rip).
