Jon Gabrus and Jeff discuss the incredible first season of Game of Thrones. Along the way there are slight detours into The Wire, Friday Night Lights, Dungeons and Dragons, Lost, Deadwood, and masturbating on horses. The first half of the conversation is spoiler free, so even those that haven't watched Game of Thrones can listen. You will be very obviously warned before specifics from the show are discussed. The spoilers only pertain to the first season of the show and the first book in the series- further books are not discussed.
