You can find the podcast here (to either listen to online, and/or download for future/mobile enjoyment).

It was fun chatting with Wendy and Kimberly about the Lannisters. Note: we talk about the TV show ONLY (not the books), so our comments and discussions are limited to the events of season 1 of the HBO show -- so no spoilers beyond that.

However, on a quasi-related note, I'm all caught up with all four of the previous Song of Ice and Fire novels, and started chapter one of the just-published A Dance With Dragons about 30 minutes ago.  All I will say is HOLY SHIT. (For what it's worth, A Storm of Swords was breathtaking, and easily my choice for the best book in the series thus far).
