House of the Dragon Season 3 just flipped the entire war — Chanel & Brandon recap the episode where Rhaenyra finally sits the Iron Throne. 🐉

Welcome back to We Was Watching, the podcast where Chanel & Brandon break down the shows everyone's talking about. This week we're recapping House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 2 — the HBO Max episode where the Dance of the Dragons takes its biggest turn yet as the Blacks seize King's Landing.

We get into ALL of it: Rhaenyra (Emma D'Arcy) claiming the capital and the Iron Throne, Alicent surrendering the city, the shocking throne-room execution of Otto Hightower, Aemond getting stabbed at a nearly empty Harrenhal and meeting the scheming Alys Rivers, Aegon and Larys Strong's lucky escape toward Rook's Rest, and Rhaena's "monkey's paw" claim of Sheepstealer plus her trip to the Vale to beg Jeyne Arryn for asylum. We also break down how the show stacks up against George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood. Is Rhaenyra actually unstoppable now? We run the dragon count, the omens, and what's coming next. Full spoiler-filled review and breakdown.
