Wendy read the informative World of Ice and Fire book of Westeros histories and she wanted more. So she searched the interwebs and found a citadel of knowledge at the Game of Thrones Academy! Historians and fans Gil Kidron and Itamar Harel look at Westeros in the context of the European medieval history and politics that inspired George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire books and HBO’s Game of Thrones series.

Wendy and the Small Council (guests Shannon Clarke, Jesse Jackson, and Lou Sytsma) discuss a few of the topics and questions that Itamar, Gil and Sophie the Cat ponder on their Youtube channel. “Knowledge is coming.”

Read on for links and images.

Provide input to the Small Council and let us know if you are interested in listening to us discuss a re-watch of Season 1 over the hiatus until season 6.
