Hello and welcome back to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!

Today, Emmett and Jeff tackle AGOT, Eddard VIII in which Ned Stark pleads with Robert not to murder Daenerys and Viserys and ends up resigning rather than participate in murder.

This week, we:

- Discuss Ned's three arguments to Robert about not killing Daenerys

- How Ned leaving is a breakup

- How much of a shit Renly is

- Who was the merchant Littlefinger priced a hit out on?

- The moral event horizon: killing children in ASOIAF

Next week: AGOT, Catelyn VI!
