House of the Dragon: Josh and Rob Return to Westeros

Game of Thrones is back with the prequel, “House of the Dragon.” Every week, Post Show Recaps provides immediate reactions, deep dive analysis, and absurd antics surrounding the return of the biggest franchise on HBO.

“House of the Dragon” centers on the Targaryan dynasty roughly 200 years before the events of “Game of Thrones.” It’s based on portions of George R.R. Martin’s 2018 novel “Fire & Blood.” Expect the show to live up to its predecessor and its very own name — with fire, blood, and dragons aplenty.

In this podcast, Josh Wigler (@roundhoward) and Rob Cesternino (@RobCesternino) return to Westeros to talk about the looming arrival of “House of the Dragon,” the shadow of “Game of Thrones,” whether anyone is really ready to revisit the Seven Kingdoms, this franchise’s place in the greater modern TV conversation, and more.
