The Joffrey of Podcasts: Game of Thrones & House of the Dragon

Lyin' Egg has revealed his identity - we debate when Egg should've told the Aegon truth to Dunk as we discuss the third episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: 'The Squire.' The episode begins with our heroes eating an Egg McMuffin and ends with Aerion's rude review of the Puppet Show! Podcast hosts Bubba & Catfish answer questions: Should Dunk have joined the Ashford scam? Worst joust move: Horse Trip v. Horse Stab?  + Match Game questions!

A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS / is based on George R.R. Martin's Westeros side tale of Dunk & Egg, about 89 years before the events of A Song of Ice and Fire saga and HBO's Game of Thrones --- and 97 years before House of the Dragon
