Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!
 

In this episode, Samwell Tarly is walking in a winter wonderland...y'know, let's make that terrorland. Sounds right.
 
This week, we: 
 

- Break down how George structures the reveal of what happened at the Fist
- Praise the formal experimentation of interweaving past and present
- Shiver in fear at the exquisite tone of dread a la Stephen King and found footage
- Analyze Sam as a POV, as his stress and self-loathing keeps breaking the surface
- Frame this chapter as a taste of things to come for Westeros when the Wall falls


 
Next week: we plunge back into hell to finish up ASOS, Samwell I!
