Listen to the pod that The Princes That Were Promised are listening to as their Royal Souls struggle with the validity and/or impact of The Final Episodes Leaks.
Here is the newest member of the ActionPacked!Podcasts family, the longest-running and most-reputable Predator pod on the entirety of the Interweb...
Patrick's Predator Podcast - Getting To The Choppah So You Don't Have To!
Episode Notes
On the 434th edition of Patrick's Predator Podcast, PBlizz is joined by his guest, Seannie-Wan Kenobi of The Princes That Were Promised, for a watch-along of Shane Black's The Predator (2018).
Pat shatters the INCORRECT common knowledge of the veteran Hollywood writer/director's place in The Predator film franchise. As it happens, Shane Black is less a creative force when it comes to our deadly, ugly, alien friend and more of a tourist.
If watching one of The Predator films with Big Poppa Predator himself is one of the items on your bucket list, here is your opportunity to allow yourself to pass into the afterlife with significantly less burden.
Patrick's Predator Podcast - Getting To The Choppa So You Don't Have To!

Bryan Cogman hits a homerun with his final offering to HBO's Game of Thrones, but the beautifully written 2nd episode is upended by the lazy, lackluster, poorly thought-out, full-of-plot-armor culmination of what turned out to be a decade-long side story written by the boys!

John and Seannie-Wan watched Winterfell, not knowing it was called Winterfell, along with 8.4 billion other people. Collectively, The Princes That Were Promised and the other 8.4 billion people forgot about Ghost while watching an episode with every living Stark set at the ancient seat of the Starks.
David Benioff and D.B. Weiss finally accomplish their goal of erasing the direwolves from the story without so much as a whimper and celebrate with a high-five marathon.

He knew nothing but we had an idea...
They all told him he knew nothing and we agreed but we kind of sort of knew...
There was no way that he could have known anything and yet his friends and enemies were on his case about how little he knew but we knew...
When all was said and done, nobody knew anything, including us...
or did we?
We will find out for sure if we knew or not but Longclaw to our head- We Still Know Nothing, Jon Snow...

Danaerys Targaryen was believed to be the last of her House through seasons 1 to 5, and most of season 6. Some on the ol’ interweb would have us believe that she is still the scion of House Targaryen in spite of clear visual and audible evidence that she is not. But the interweb is great for silly theories in both fiction and real life!
All the same, Danaerys Stormborn has been framed as the hero of this story since the final half of season 1.
Spoiler: She...

Arya Stark- universally loved by all. John and Seannie-Wan have been of the Royal opinion that the Arya story in the source material upon which Game of Thrones is based is likely the best story of all. But the televised story based on it? Not so much.
Listen to #TPTWP criticize David Benioff and D.B. Weiss for producing television that doesn't seem to understand Arya Stark.
Also, The Promised Princes dig deep into the frequent and mind-boggling cast changes of minor characters that do not even attempt any sort of continuity.
The Princes That Were Promised are John and Seannie-Wan.
Join them as they tear apart Westeros and sift through the pieces to bring their Leal and Loyal Subjects the history of the Realm and The Known World from both George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and HBO's adaptation, Game of Thrones.
