Fanart for one of my favorite podcasts, Boars, Gore and Swords, a Game of Thrones recap podcast hosted by comedians Red Scott and Ivan Hernandez. One of the reasons I’m most excited about season 3 of GoT is the return of these two guys discussing/making fun of the show, with frequent tangents onto topics such as comic books, Trader Joes, and Aaron Sorkin.
(Everything in this picture makes sense if you listen to the podcast.)
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Count the podcast references!
Sworn Sword Part II with Ivan and Red heading across the river to meet Lucas the Angry Longinch, the Red Widow, and Ser Sefton the Flatulent. On the way to the spider, they cover the social service Vine, Siri reviews, Ser Bennis’s grossness, The Red Widow’s Plan C birth control, Beard and Beardless, Ogre & Donkey, and more! “Dunk and Egg” song via Ser Daniel Preston.
Back on track with the NEXT Dunk and Egg tale, Ivan and Red crack Legends II from the start to page 36 and get on with The Sworn Sword. First they discuss Red’s trip to Ivan’s home state, some listener emails, and then get on to Railroad’s laziest naming yet, Martin Short as Ser Useless, the best way to make Flan, and so much more. “Dunk and Egg” song via Ser Daniel Preston.
In Ivan’s now favorite and Red’s least favorite episode, we attempt to cover the next chapter in the Dunk and Egg series until something goes horribly, horribly awry. There’s a lot happening in this one, but I assure any listeners there are ZERO spoilers for D&E, so listen freely. “Dunk and Egg” song via Ser Daniel Preston.
Red and Ivan finish up The Hedge Knight as well as getting into The Third Shift, predicting the victor of the Superb Owl despite no Bannerman caring, puberty-age Ivan reading extended universe Star Wars fiction, the Pearlman siblings, Lord Ashford dominating H-O-R-S-E, homonyms and Crazy Horse, Baelor Breakspear and other great names, Arya and her 10,000 ships, Beesbury, Brightflame getting kicked in the mouth, Warren Buffet and others in the Upper Middle Class, how to take notes on an iPad, dragging your enemy by the foot, and the rare happy ending. “Dunk and Egg” song via Ser Daniel Preston.
Ivan and Red enter the world of Dunk and Egg to discuss the first part of The Hedge Knight! This week Ivan and Red discuss spitting words into brain holes, infallibility, “on accident” vs “by accident”, another question from Andrea Boettcher via Chuck Klusterman, the correct time to read Dunk & Egg, Ivan’s childhood teeth brushing policy, Lady puppeteers, tall drinks of water, more Star Wars prequel talk, ransoming armor, and more more more. Next week we’ll cover the rest of The Hedge Knight. “Dunk and Egg” song via Ser Daniel Preston.
In this, their 80th episode, Ivan & Red discuss the show’s origins, which GoT character they would punch in the face, their top 5 albums of all time, whether or not Ivan hooks up with female comics, and so much more! This was a real treat of an episode for us to do, if you have any feedback, hit us up at boarsgoreandswords@gmail.com or on twitter @boarsgoreswords. Next week we start the tales of Dunk and Egg. Join us!
To coincide with the Golden Globes, Ivan & Red host a podcast of much greater relevance! The boys are joined by Julia Prescott and David Child of the Friday Night Film School podcast to take a look at the 18 movies that Ivan happened to see theatrically in 2012! It’s a great cluster of a discussion, so feel free to add your own voice by yelling at us in disagreement in your own car, gym, or workplace!
