Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
One of the constants on this podcast from the very start has been Game of Thrones. That's despite the fact that one of the hosts can't stand the show. That's why when we really want to get into the weeds on the how, we call in two experts on the genre and the show: the Free Beacon's Sonny Bunch and the New York Times' Ross Douthat. Together with John and Jonah, they parse the good, the bad, what worked and what didn't. Needless to say, this episode of GLoP contains MAJOR Game of Thrones spoilers so if you have not seen the series finale, you should not listen to this podcast until you have.

I ask for BLoG or GLoB and the first time you get Sonny on the show it's to replace Rob and not John. Such is my life.
Haven't finished yet, but Ross' cursing around the 42 minute mark got through in my copy. Not offended but was shocked to hear the word instead of the expected beep.

A new, bleeped version has now been uploaded. Apologies for letting the F-bomb through.

The best thing about the Game of Thrones finale is that those of us who ignored the whole thing get to smugly say, “And you wasted 3 whole days and 16 minutes of your life for THAT?”

I heartily agree with Ross' comments!
