Schwift officially challenging George. You love to see it.

[@SisyphusianSaturnite]

I hope he has insider information, and we can bank on a release sometime soon. He did say he was going to start this series back up again when George released Winds

[@FirstSynapse]

​@@SisyphusianSaturniteof course he doesn't lol

[@TheHellyeahmen]

@@FirstSynapse I mean he can. They have met with George and weirdly enough that all we know. Not even a little interview

[@FirstSynapse]

@TheHellyeahmen the point of their meeting was to keep it casual and private. I seriously doubt they even spoke about the release date of the book at all. Would you use your only opportunity in life to meet your most admired author to immediately annoy them with a question they famously hate? I'm pretty sure they just had a lovely time with him and maybe spoke about some interesting aspects of the books. Having that sort of personal and friendly meeting with George would only be possible under the premise of keeping the conversation private, regardless of its actual content. He has had many bad experiences in the past, with people exploiting and sensationalising anything he says.

[@TheHellyeahmen]

@@FirstSynapse first of all if the point is to keep it private why talk about it repeatedly yet with zero details? You really don't see a contradiction? second of course they would not ask that question. It's obvious. But George could've said something himself and there's a few good reasons for that 1. A friendly meeting between people who are not friends is kinda weird. Especially when you remember how many people want to meet him. It's likely that there was another reason. 2. If he's close to finishing winds it's actually in his interest to tell it to influencers. It's been 13 years. It's nice to slowly remind people about the books by releasing more content in the community before announcing this publically. He was burned by those public announces before

3 in a week? Insane

[@majestichotdog1195]

Dont get us too excited schwifty we might just die

[@AltSchwiftSiberia]

Never thirsted for ACOK like this before. Thank you for delivering

[@AlbertAlbertB.]

Its november dude

[@andyr4343]

the audiobook chapter Arya VIII is twenty-two minutes long, Thank for abridging it Schwift!

[@SisyphusianSaturnite]

I really hope he keeps this pace up. This series got me through a midlife side quest in the barrenly frigid lands of Alaska.

[@FirstSynapse]

Beware of white walkers up north

[@AltSchwiftSiberia]

PCSing soon! Excited to leave this place.

[@GOWnH3best]

Please Lord of Light give Schwift the strength to keep this pace up.

[@neongalaxy9976]

Good to see Schwift back in his element

[@JoshuaKevinPerry]

Glidus has clearly cursed Schiftt to be a horse until acok is finished and I am here for it.

[@patriciogarciadamiano7469]

ACOK every 2 days? I don't think I can handle that much tbh

Adapt. Overcome. Survive

[@ironvicho20]

Thats what she said!!!

Once is random. Twice is a coincidence. Three times in a week is a treeeend we love it

“That’s how you know you’ve made it, is when you’re having a bath and everyone else is working” - me, unemployed in the tub at 2 in the afternoon watching this video

[@true05angel]

I LITERALLY just finished drafting my resignation letter and was pleasantly surprised to see a new ACOK abridged. Only to be 2 minutes in hearing about Arya quitting. Alt Shwift you psychic scallywag you! Always here to left my mood!❤ I will not be quitting via homicide though 😉

[@sandiaYpescado]

“Tywin is a drip king”. Well played compadre

[@ShubertReads]

All those blood magic ritual sacrifices are finally paying off! Thanks Schwift 🙇

[@MaddoxTopg]

George and Schwift racing to finish before WW3

[@dylanbyrne7713]

Shwift you’re so close to my all time favorite ASOIAF chapter, Dany 3 ACOK, I can’t wait! Keep it up!

[@thedeadnightking9975]

Isn’t Dany 4 more interesting though? That’s when she gets all the visions.

[@dylanbyrne7713]

@@thedeadnightking9975 oh dang your right, Dany 4 is my fav. I got confused lol, it’ll be another 2 years before he gets to Dany 4 :(

[@lw9243]

Keep em coming my boy xxx

[@bonbonvegabon]

I'm a junkie for ACOK. 3 ACOKs in 3 days is super rad.

[@paulg5507]

this pace is insane 🙏

[@aushbegosh3032]

I'm so happy this is back

[@punishedhuguini]

Holy fuck he's doing to beat George isn't he

[@nathanielrowe812]

So glad these have picked up again!

[@thedeadnightking9975]

Alt Schwift X = Jon Connington 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 He is trying to finish The Abriged series before the grey scale catches up to him.

[@mikeclarke1986]

Two acok abridged in one week? We are truly blessed

[@sebastos7693]

So this must be what it feels like for people who have lived in the wilderness for years and then suddenly can eat whatever they want.

[@amberroy7521]

Another chapter this soon? What have we done to deserve this, oh mighty Schwift lord? Please keep it up!

[@Betch6]

My Money's on Schwifty!😂

[@shadedbear6414]

More acok in a week then we have gotten in a whole year I don't know what's going on but I hope it keeps going

[@Hank49716]

Just missed the live lol

[@olasarcasm]

I absolutely love that you made 3 episodes in a row like this! I understand it won't be this pace forever but I'm hopeful you will continue to analyze and entertain us in 2025 😘

[@Coast2CoastFlyin]

What the fuck is happening? A full year's worth of ACOK Abridged in the past week? Not sure what we did to deserve such divine blessings, but praise the (classic thriller starring Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt) Se7en!

[@Meanpeter1]

Schwifty got Christmas prezzies to pay for 🎁

[@madmanonsticks]

hell yes. Been renovating my garage and can't think of anything better to listen to than these. Please keep up the pace!

[@brigittehuber9745]

Man...Preston is really breathing down your neck with his abridged series xD Appreciate your uploads as always!

[@-ooooooooooo]

So glad this is back, like, SO GLAD

can't believe how blessed we are rn

[@devontufts1291]

3days in a row!? It must be the end times!!

[@iliaponomarev1624]

My Jaqen head canon is that he came to King's Landing on some business, but Syrio Forel (a known Faceless Men detector, he kinda had to be one if he were a bodyguard of the Sealord of Braavos) discovered him and reported to Varys. Varys got him thrown to the black cells to figure things out later. Ned didn't know Jaqen was an S-tier emergency waiting for sharp questioning and opened the black cells for Yoren.

[@edgeman1135]

I liked the theory that Jaqen was hired by Littlefinger to get rid of Ned on the way to the wall. He could easily misplace the gold to pay for it, and killing Ned keeps him from communicating Littlefinger's betrayal to Cat. Like Arya learning that Jaqen was there specifically to kill her father would be heartbreaking.

[@ILikedGooglePlus]

​@@edgeman1135 Ooh that's good

[@joshualegroulx9629]

You spoil us! Love these so much, keep em coming!

[@samuelwatkins5145]

Good timing on this one! I can actually catch it live in Arizona.

[@nestiboy]

We have been blessed!

[@cecidit1149]

Hi Schwift, love your work. I've listened to your videos few times already, but I can't find any deep analize the story of "The rains of Castamere" is there any chance that you or your evil twin Shift will make such video?

[@kimberlywebster6057]

On behalf of sane Americans, thank you for the therapy.

[@ethans3584]

On the Others and the Faceless Men, I've always felt "all men must die; all men must serve" sounds exactly like the Others' MO (trying to wipe out humanity and turn them all into wights). Given the Faceless Men's opposition to the Valyrians and dragons, it'd be a nice echo if the Faceless Men's religion is actually a remnant from the Long Night showing perhaps not all the humans were on the same side (similar to the myth that the Bloodstone Emperor was against the Amethyst Empress).

[@a.a677]

This is gonna make George drop TWOW lmao he doesn't want to be upstaged

[@beanusmaximus7515]

I’m so fucking happy thank you so much

Guys are Alt shift X and Alt Schwift X different persons or not, I am really Confused

[@sirsplintfastthepungent1373]

I don't blame her either, roasted capon is delicious. It's slightly bigger than your standard chicken, with richer flavor.

[@MistyWarden]

Half a chicken is a serious feast for someone in her position. I was imagining a Cornish hen. No wonder she used a hit wish on him.

[@sirsplintfastthepungent1373]

@MistyWarden I think it's simply the rooster, but I could be mistaken. I love how consistent GRRM is in the foods he uses in Westerosi cuisine; there's never any corn, pumpkins, potatoes, or any "New World" foods from the Americas.

[@zeldagonzalez2851]

​@@sirsplintfastthepungent1373 it's a castrated rooster actually 🤓☝️

[@sickjoe9174]

Maybe Euron wants a dragon for a blood sacrifice.

[@billymcdugal3970]

The 3 body tencent show is so much better than the Netflix show. Much more close to the books and over 30 hours of it. So its a much larger and more interesting story. Its actually hard for me to think of 3 body and not think of Wang Miao. Plus when they get western actors to try to speak english horribly its hilarious.

[@matsroscam]

I've been pacing myself not to catch up to Schwift. The fact that i'm only 30 episodes behind and they're from 7 years ago should tell you enough

[@l.4165]

Slow down there partner

[@globesurfer122]

Why?

[@roba3438]

How is this happening?

[@Hochspitz]

Everything is darker in the books, whereas the show chose shock, tits and wine. And yes Twyin/Arya in the show was indeed better on screen than just how helpless she was and it was too hard for Roose to be there because all the warg stuff, Arya, Rob, Jon and Rickon was left out, along with Lady Stoneheart.

[@johnford6501]

Arya did not sail west in the show lol. Arya is dead. She died before season 7 started.

My vote is Gerold Dayne.

[@kristianwesterdahl9576]

Three in a row? What alien are you and what have you done to Schwifty??? 😳

[@MistyWarden]

36:25 GRRM was really leaning into how being a victim of violence can not just make you commit violence to survive but turn you into an abuser yourself with Arya and Dany. Too bad we fans were too busy saying “good for her” to notice until the end 🤣

[@Bentzi_Ganot]

Alt chat x is this real life? Or is this just G.R.R.M fantasy?

A play about Harrenhal?? wtf George, you know if you want people to know what happened there, you can just finish the books... He is like me when im procrastinating over my to do list. I also come up with new smaller tasks to distract me. Next time he says he has no time to continue writing w o w, because he's writing a poem about Hot Pies back story,,

[@hasanmehmood19]

0:30 my vote is for Shwifty. George is busy collecting dough rather than to cater to needs of his loyal fanbase who have made it possible for George to get to this place.
