    (03:48) : Can you bring up a screen for us to watch here
    (07:21) : Even if this season is perfect, he's still going to care
    (09:58) The second season is much less hokey than the first two seasons
    (10:54) There are major spoilers from the books in this interview
    (11:15) After watching the breakdowns, watching the trailer, I'm really excited
    (13:11) First scene is super epic, bro. So you got Rand in the middle, right
    (16:13) We get a shot of Moraine floating in Tarvalin

    (37:48) We get a scene of landfare with long hair about to choke Moraine
    (40:11) Another reason why I'm hyped for next scene is the bubble of evil
    (42:08) The new season of Game of Thrones looks very different from the book

Thank goodness I found this!

As someone who hasn’t read the books I was so excited to come across this podcast as I can get more background into the characters and story without any spoilers! I also get to nerd out as I don’t have anyone in my life right now who is watching the Amazon series.
