Sure, this episode didn’t end with a catchy tune called “Unbreakable Sansa Schmidt,” but it did manage to annoy legions of faithful ASOIAF fans nonetheless. So what’s our verdict on this controversial episode?
As usual, I’m joined by Maria Garcia and Adonis Gonzalez of House Conspiring, as we podcast our way to some answers in this week’s episode of HBO’S Game of Thrones. If you haven’t seen the most recent episode of this show, then please avoid this podcast episode at all costs.
This week on the podcast, we review Mad Max: Fury Road and Pitch Perfect 2. Now that I think about it, we never tried to determine which movie is better. Maybe it’s obvious.
In this week’s episode of Now Conspiring, we’re joined by Reid Jones as we have a spoilery discussion about Marvel’s latest Avengers-related assembly. If you want to avoid spoilers, stop listening at the 8:25 mark of the podcast and then pick it up again at 34:44.
But Age of Ultron isn’t all we’re talking about this week. We also cover the new Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts film, While We’re Young for a quick review. We also cover the latest movie news, including the recent 21 Jump Street crossover, the AMC Star Wars marathon, and more.
Later in the show, we try to decide what the best trailer is for the worst movie. Don’t forget to add your suggestion to the comments!
Question of the Week: Who is your favorite Avenger?
By the way, our Song of the Week this week is “Bad Dream” by The Mowgli’s. Be sure to check out their new album (same name as the song), which is in stores now.
Look, we all know you love HBO’s Game of Thrones, even if it’s a big secret and/or you’re too young to watch it, which in that case, shame on you.
But for those of you looking for a recap of the most recent episode, “High Sparrow,” you’ve hit the jackpot. My full recap in article form is available to read and enjoy here, but you can also listen to the Now Conspiring podcast, where we recap the episode and answer all of the questions you didn’t think to ask.
So join me, Mike Overkill, and Adonis Gonzalez as we do our best to stay on topic.
We have an action-packed show for you guys this week, and there’s little intelligence (artificial or human) to be found. Mike Overkill joins us for the first time on the Now Conspiring podcast, as we reviewEx Machinaand Age of Adaline.
Later in the show, we cover the major movie news you care about, talk about our “5 Top TV Comedies,” and make Maria Garcia incredibly uncomfortable. Stick around for our Netflix Recommendation of the Week toward the end of the episode, and as always, we finish with new movie releases coming out this weekend.
