In this episode we break down the latest episode of Game of Thrones (ep 2) and discuss the emotional set up. We love the reunions and the respite from the ugliness to come. We talk about the build up and the great moments of the episode before we turn to predictions for the Great War. We share who we think is going to die and who is going to make it. We debate how the story and battle will unfold. We then talk about the case of the co-creator of Rocket Raccoon and his brother’s financial situation. This leads us to talk about the nature of the gig economy or independent contracting. We discuss the exploitative relationship between Marvel and comic books with their artists and writers. We talk about the disproportionate profit scheme and how this reflects in Uber, Lyft, and similar apps.
