On this episode of Objection! You’re Fiction, Lee Bergstein is joined by Dr. Christina Bruno, Associate Director at Fordham University’s Center for Medieval Studies. The two explore how medieval law shaped the world of Game of Thrones, and its spinoff series A Knight of Seven Kingdoms, unpacking the realities behind trial by combat, ordeals, and the powerful role of reputation in determining justice. The conversation reveals how these complex legal systems continue to echo in today’s understanding of law, power, and public perception.
