SRM S03E10: Mhysa

And there it is. The third season of one of the greatest shows ever comes to a somewhat anticlimactic close. We discuss our thoughts on the lack of “big stuff” in this season finale while breaking down the episode. We talk about the overall quality of the third season, can’t help but discuss our lack […]
SRM Second Thoughts on The Rains of Castamere

In this special mid-week episode we discuss more about the “Red Wedding” in the 9th episode, “Rains of Castamere”. I’ve watched the episode twice through now and the Red Wedding scene itself several times. Little tip for you don’t do that. It hurts every time, but in doing so I’ve caught different things I didn’t […]
SRM S03E09: The Rains of Castamere

In this episode we discuss the adventures of Sam & Gilly for majority of the time. No. We don’t. We talk about what you’d think we talk about. I (Mike) am in pain. My heart has been ripped out and trampled on by a clever man that appears to be some sort of general in […]
SRM Second Thoughts on Season 3 So Far

No GoT episode this week, but that didn’t stop us from talking for an hour now did it? This was an off week so HBO could show their Liberace movie with Matt Damon and Mr. Zeta-Jones. Since we didn’t have an episode to break down this week was more of a free form discussion. We […]
SRM S03E08: Second Sons

In the much better sounding 8th episode of Stark Raven Mad we discuss a bit more of the moral complexity of the Hound and the sympathy we have (or don’t have) for Sansa. We talk about new character, Daario Naharis, and him trying to be all Khol with Daenerys and how Ser Jorah, Lord of […]
SRM S03E07: The Bear and the Maiden Fair

Lots of laughs, information and debate in this, the 7th episode of Stark Raven Mad. In addition to going through the episode in depth, Kevin and Andrew battle over whether the Hound is a good guy or a bad guy, we discuss the “crazy gene” passed down through the Targaryen family and much more. Also […]
Gettin’ Close with Mark Sutton!
In this 18th episode of the Gettin’ Close podcast I chat with one of my improv mentors, Mark Sutton. The Annoyance theater has played a big part in shaping my views about performing improv and Mark specifically has done a great deal to shape my views about teaching it. In addition to the normal background […]
SRM S03E6: The Climb

Be sure to support the podcast by supporting our sponsors. Check out ZombieExodus.com for info on the game, or […]
Mark Sutton on the next Gettin’ Close Podcast!
Living improv legend, Mark Sutton, will be my guest on the next Gettin’ Close podcast. It’s actually just been recorded and for improvisers- this might just be the best thing since tag outs. Loads of improv discussion here both both from a performing perspective and a teaching/coaching perspective. If I learned anything from this chat […]
