In this thirtieth episode of Learned Hands, the Official Podcast of the Westerosi Bar Association, Merry & Clint ask: How well did Larys Strong, Cregan Stark, and Other Dancers do Machiavelli?

Our analysis this week includes:

Sexy Sexy Sexiness from Cregan Stark and Black Aly.Let's talk about Prince! Not the purple one. Or the little one. The one you read in freshman year Poli Sci.Clint gets all "you really have to look at the context before passing judgment" about Niccolò Machiavelli of all fucking people.Merry brings in the not-necessarily-Marxist reading, as per usual.We play the Realm's favorite game: Machiavelli or A Song of Ice And Fire? YOU CHOOSE.The Hands pass judgment on Larys Strong, Cregan Stark, Corlys Velaryon, and others.Everyone likes the counter-counter-coup against the Greens and Aegon II, who is kind of a dumbass and had to go.No one likes the democrats, who are also dumbasses.For some reason we make a bunch of pornhub jokes.We discuss how Nicky Macs feels about lying and killing (SPOILER: they're good!)It's the Hour of the Danged Wolf! There are trials! GET FUCKING HYPE.
