This week on Can I Just Say, the last of our dispatches from 2019 Con of Thrones. We discuss fate and destiny for one who is so powerful, our shifting experiences of “Dracarys” the end of Season 8, and conquering vs ruling.

This week on Can I Just Say, Elizabeth was on a fascinating Con of Thrones panel looking at the arc of Theon Greyjoy from start to end of Game of Thrones. Greyjoy or Stark? Theon’s story ends up being one of the most interesting and heart wrenching story in Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire.

This week on Can I Just Say, the first panel dispatch from Con of Thrones. In a sequel to last year’s Queendom panel, Daphne joins Kristine Kippins, Lauren Sarner, and Kim Renfro to discuss women and politics in Game of Thrones.

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss Season 8 of Game of Thrones, for a long long time. Kristine Kippins is back and we are also joined by Petra Halbur who writes for the Game of Thrones dedicated site Watchers on the Wall. Daphne is a bit salty and Elizabeth is (as always) sweet.

This week on Can I Just Say, we look back at Season 7 of Game of Thrones, in our excitement for Season 8. Kristine Kippins joins Daphne for a continuation of our Con of Thrones panel discussions and a preview for our 2019 panel. We discuss Being the Dragon, leadership styes, bending knees, and who will bring the balance of The Force to Westeros (if anyone can)

This week on Can I Just Say, we enter the church of Baseball and find that we believe in belief. If you love something enough it can be profound. Annie and Crash are two of the most fascinating and fun characters you will ever meet, and Daphne proves that you don’t need to know anything about baseball to love this film.

This week on Can I Just Say, Lindsey Romain of Nerdist joins us to discuss The Favourite by Yorgos Lanthimos. We chat about shooting, dancing, women in power and men throwing fruit.

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss the 1987 film, Moonstruck. We howl at the moon and break our hearts and go to the opera. We both loved this story of a woman’s self-discovery, set in NY but also in a modern fairy tale based on love, family, beauty, and wolves….

It is time to plug in our splitter and wander around New York listening to our playlists and talk about this delightful film that defies tropes and is truly a pleasure to watch.

This week on Can I Just Say, the 1991 film, Impromptu. When discussion of darling film about the 1830’s art world in Paris and a fabulously gender fluid writer (George Sand played by Judy Davis) becomes a grand sweeping debate of arts place in society, democracy, cultural norms.

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss the 1994 film, Little Women. Gentlemen of the press. Hear! Hear! We so enjoyed the March family… enough to want to be a part of it (but not in quite the same way as Laurie)

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss the 1985 Merchant Ivory film, A Room with a View. The wonderful Louise Barnes from Black Sails joins us for: Beauty! Joy! And the eternal Yes!

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss E.M. Forster’s A Room with a View – introspection or the lack thereof, bathing, piano, and fate all wrapped in some of the most beautiful prose. We so enjoyed ourselves! Next episode we discuss the film with actress Louise Barnes.

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss the 1996 and 2009 adaptations of Jane Austen’s Emma and we will try not to kill Knightly’s dogs….

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss Jane Austen’s Emma, our well meaning and often misguided heroine of a very different sort than we have met up until this point. We talk of responsibility and pride and what may be the true meaning of ‘extensive grounds’

This week on Can I Just Say, culture writer Lindsey Romain joins us to discuss Star Wars: The Last Jedi and we had the most fun talking about The Force, the characters, the themes…. and a few things we had not anticipated.

This week on Can I Just Say, Andrew Dyce joins us to discuss the 1995 and 2005 adaptations of Pride and Prejudice. We had a fantastic conversation, a crazy revelation mid-podcast, and sadly some tech problems and not our usual standard of audio quality (sorry!) We find great enjoyment in professing opinions which in fact are our own.

This week on Can I Just Say, we discuss Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. We talk about the beautifully flawed characters of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy, the choices (or lack thereof) for women of that time, and who we would choose to go to our Ball and who to our dinner party.
