We get to see some serious action this week. Catelyn's party is attacked en route to the Vale. The Hound and the Mountain clash on the Tourney grounds. Ned and Jamie duel in the streets of King's Landing. There is so much awesome in this episode that I was halfway through the podcast recording before I realized that we didn't see Jon or Dany this week.

This week's episode introduces several new characters: Gendry, Samwell Tarly and Gregor Clegane. We see some well-executed scenes from the book, and we see several new scenes, invented to convey key pieces of backstory and character development. Things wrap up with a thrilling cliffhanger when Catelyn and Tyrion meet at the Inn. We don't get to see the Innkeeper chewing her disgusting sourleaf, but perhaps that is for the best.

This week we welcome lots of new characters and wonder what became of others. No Ghost? No Donal Noye? No matter! We say hello to Littlefinger, Renly, Grand Maester Pycelle and Varys. And is that Ser Barristan Selmy that Robert is trading war stories with? And how about the composite bloodrider that Ser Jorah is comparing swords with? Old Nan scares us and Syrio Forel thrills us. Come join us!

We are on the ball this week. We recorded the episode Sunday night and I'm posting it Monday night. This week Molly inserted a new segment featuring a message from her Dad. We found plenty to talk about in this great Episode and ran a little long. Check it out!

Chuck, Molly, Eric and Brendan had a great time at the viewing party Sunday night. Several enthusiastic fans joined us. One guy came dressed as Jon Snow, with two buddies in "maester" (monk) costumes. Molly, the hostess, was adamant that she finish preparing her taco cup hors d'oerves before the viewing, which meant waiting for the last person to show up who was bringing the chicken breast. So we waited for that to cook and drank and talked for a long time. We didn't sit down to watch the premiere until like 11:30. Afterwards it was a little late, and we were a little too drunk, to record a proper podcast. So we reconvened Tuesday night, rewatched the episode and recorded this scintillating discussion.

Hello, and welcome to the blog for our podcast 'Dark Wings, Dork Words', a roundtable discussion of HBO's new series 'Game Of Thrones'. Chuck, Molly, Eric and Brendan are all fans of George R.R. Martin's series 'A Song of Ice & Fire', and in Episode 0 we reflect on the promo material for the HBO series, and discuss our hopes and fears for how faithful the adaptation will be to the books. This podcast was recorded just before a viewing party of the Premiere Episode.
