Ep. 90 - HOTD S02E02 Rhaenyra the Cruel w/ Nav Artwork

Game of Groans

Emily Bateman, a millennial woman who never got into Game of Thrones, finally sits down to watch and analyze each consecutive episode of the popular HBO show. With the help of her sister, Kate Koballa, and sometimes a guest, Emily tries to figure out what the heck is going on in the show, why it was so popular at the time and who is actually going to win the game of thrones (if there actually is a winner at the end).

Ep. 90 - HOTD S02E02 Rhaenyra the Cruel w/ Nav

January 28, 2025 • Emily Bateman and Kate Koballa

This week on Game of Groans, Emily and Kate are joined by Nav from A Song of Ice and Fire Symposium to talk about Episode 2 of Season 2, Rhaenyra the Cruel.

They discuss cathartic arguments, Mark Zuckerberg shark eyes, incredible face acting, too many Aegons, Legos, pop-up video for HOTD, the event coordinators for King's Landing, Jon Snow wannabes, Otto is Regina George, and that marriage is a little bit of pvp.

Additionally, Emily describes her continued Hulu commercial saga, Kate forgets Laenor's name, and Nav nerds out about the new intro.

New episodes biweekly, the next episode is coming February 11th. Music is by Simon Daum.
