Long Time No Speak & An Announcement With Updates
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. There are a few updates and edits. Hi everyone! I’m well aware that it’s been nearly 3 months since my last post. I have to confess that a huge part of it was that production for Season 2 of this podcast took up way more time than I had anticipated. I was also juggling another podcast (which I have now discontinued). I was stretched thin and not all of the tasks I wanted to achieve was done in a timely fashion. So I have gone on a holiday-oriented hiatus and I’ll be back with the next episode on January 8th. I’m pretty…

Back In Action! Coming Soon Season 2 & House Targaryen!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. Well everyone! I had a nice August break after the end of House of the Dragon Season 2. Well this week I’m going to be back with prepping Season 2 of the podcast. Mark your calendars because the premiere will be released on October 2. As I said before, I’ll be back and talking about all things House Targaryen! So yes there will be a LOT of spoilers of House of the Dragon’s future seasons 3 & 4. There will also be some spoilers of the upcoming series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, as there will be a few Targaryens in…

This Show Got A Podcast Review!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. It was pretty exciting when I got message from Frank Racioppi via Medium comment asking if I’d like him to review my podcast. I was flattered and surprised. If you haven’t already checked out Ear Worthy you should. It’s a really great publication reviewing different podcasts and opining on the podcasting world in general. I’ve been reading Ear Worthy content on Substack and on Medium. I was giddy with wonder and delight to see the review! If you’re curious, you can read it here. I’m truly honored. I’ve never had anything like this happen where someone reviewed something I did. Sure I’ve…

500 Downloads!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. Huzzah! I’ve hit 500 downloads on current host Redcircle! This doesn’t include the 316 downloads I got on the previous host, Acast. Thank you listeners who have taken the time to listen to my podcasts. I spent time to produce episodes that I hope were enjoyable to you. Pretty soon, I’ll be starting work on Season 2. Get ready for more Fire and Blood in October.

Coming Soon Season 2…!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. Well I said I’d make an official announcement about this on the 15th. So here it is. I had to seriously contemplate this. It’s slightly disappointing that there weren’t more votes in the poll. However it is what it is. I had to seriously think about this. I was debating heavily because of this annoying three-way tie. After much consideration decided that I was going to do the deep dive of House Targaryen. I feel that it’s much easier to plan and produces. Also I realized that there’s going to be some real world history talk mixed in with my discussion of…

Cross-Promo With Lore of The Rings!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. I’m excited to announce the first cross-promo for The Westerosi Primer. It is Lore of the Rings. If you love LOTR, check this amazing podcast out! What happened? Imagine my surprise when I was checking my e-mail on the morning of July 1. It was a notification from Red Circle that someone sent me a cross-promo request. I was delighted to receive a nice message from Aaron, the host, about doing a cross-promo with him. He pointed out there was some audience crossover between the two fandoms. After thinking about it, it does make sense. George R.R. Martin, like many fantasy authors,…

Live Tweeting And Other Social Media Fun!
Please note this was originally posted on Substack. Just a really quick message to anyone who isn’t already aware of this. Every Sunday night while House of the Dragon season 2 is airing, I will be doing a live tweet session! Please join in on the fun! You can follow here: westerosiprimer or https://twitter.com/westerosiprimer Due to the character limits for usernames on X, I had to take out “the.” I’m hoping to get more followers for the account! I also established an Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/thewesterosiprimer There isn’t a ton on there just yet, but I’m hoping I’ll change that in the near future. I’m going to be attending New York…
