Episode 127: The Heirs of the Dragon

<p>In Episode 127, Matt and Scad take a leap into the HBO series The House of the Dragon, covering its first episode:  The Heirs of the Dragon.   With Jaehaerys’ rule coming to an end, and the succession unclear, the assembled Lords of Westeros choose Viserys I to rule the 7 Kingdoms.  But it isn’t long before Viserys has his own succession problems as he struggles to produce a male heir.  With a child on the way for Queen Aemma though, hope springs and King’s Landing holds a tourney to celebrate. But things do not go as planned, and Viserys is left with an unruly council, a brutal brother, and a dutiful but overlooked daughter to contend with as the succession looms again.</p> <p>This is the first in what will be weekly episodes covering the new HBO series, The House of the Dragon.  So it will be a busy few months for the Fingers.  Check back here each Friday for a recap of the previous week and to get excited for the upcoming episode as well.  This content can also be found on the Davos’ Fingers Youtube channel in video format.</p> <p>Want to chat about the episode?!?  Come play with us on twitter @davosfingers, or shoot us an email at wearedavosfingers@gmail.com, or find us on facebook!  If you’d like to get access to special content and support the podcast, check us out on patreon at patreon.com/davosfingers.</p>
