April 13, 2013: A BNF of Ice & Fire, Or: Lindaaaa, GRRM, and Racism

Yikes, Scoob! This week, Emily and V hold their noses and sink into the cesspit that is the Tumblr blog of ASOIAF BNF and certified GOT Hater, Lindaaaa (Linda Antonsson). We literally can't use any of the words that Lindaaaa uses to refer to fellow A Song of Ice & Fire/Game of Thrones fans and still have this episode be SEO-searchable and able to show up on your podcatcher, so, uh, make sure you're wearing headphones if you plan to listen around other people. Of any age. She's a peach. But also, we learn about a type of fanfiction -- BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IT IS, LINDA -- that we'd never encountered before: the MUSH.
