Things we called fake during this evening’s recording of @ragmanspod.bsky.social:
- borders
- the gender binary
- private property

That’s all to say, we were pretty on brand.

Jimmy Cliff left us today 💔
Our patrons have the honour (probably) of being able to reminisce him when listening to Virginie sing one of his songs (and not entirely butcher it) on our latest bonus episode
RIP king

I am incapable of not relating every political thing to Game of Thrones, and I apologize for that, but three whistle blasts for ICE is such a perfect analog to the three horn blasts Night Watch alert for the icy Others/White Walkers.
📯📯📯❄️👿❄️
Whistles are one of the most accessible tools in resisting ICE.

Here’s how to use them:

Daario Naharis: “challenge accepted” and dresses in gold and blue
Sandor Clegane. The Hound. Point blank PERIOD. Half burned Peter Steele w/ romantic little notions buried deep? outwardly off-putting? straight up threatening? Lowkey funny? NO CONTEST. Anyone who disagrees is a PRUDE and a COWARD! THE HOTTEST THING A MAN CAN DO IS BE UGLY!!! SANDOR CLEGANE 4EVR!!!!
Important question time:

I know Mance is deceived as pretty plain, but a guy’s politics can definitely increase his sexiness. So I’m gonna go with Mance.

Want to hear me try to summarise the French Revolution in 20 minutes?
Or perhaps say the word “kings” when I meant “pigs” in a sentence about them being no longer welcome on the streets?
Well, wait no more!

If you ever get frustrated with Jon while reading ADWD (sending away allies, ignoring warnings from Mel)…

Wait until you hear about the king who gets warned abt a conspiracy, yet throws a masquerade ball. And right before the ball gets a letter warning him abt an attack, yet ignores it.
And… 🎭🔪

We recorded an episode today.
The story behind this scene is described and I’m sure you can see why.
No? That’s ok.
Really, it gets the briefest mention and that’s sad because how many times did a pig kill a prince/ king???
Also, it’s very pretty so we had to share it!

Lovely that @notacast.bsky.social is getting to the part of Arya’s story where she hangs out at our namesake! ⚓️

I’m not sure whether to call him a prince or a king, so I do both. Because I’m confused like that (and history is complex and I’m not sure what’s the modern take on how to refer to a prince that’s already been crowned king while his dad is still alive and reigning) (yes, that very much was a thing)

WE'RE BACK!
Our Patreon supporters can now hear our beautiful voices again, talking about the Lord of the Rings that, if you don't know, we're reading (in Virginie's case, for the first time) for our bonus episodes.
Thanks everyone for your patience in September 💜
