Game of Thrones Abridged #94: Tyrion V, ACOK

[@hertogappel]

Books: "striped ball of fur." Schwift: "ZeBRaTesTICle."

[@stephaniec9539]

That made mw lol

[@theletterm5425]

Wildfire in a pot That's some WAP, uh

[@brettstalling2269]

"look......I'll confess......I have no idea what I am talking about." I died

[@muffy6449]

Absolute classic - gold standard Schwift right here.

[@Blastanker]

I love waking up to see a notification for these.

[@Kriegerdammerung]

13:37 "past events are not a guaranteed prediction of future results" this is why Schwift is the best player in the world!

[@thisguy8106]

And Robb also had no intention of peace. He knew they would use it exactly like they did and he invaded the Westerlands. So even if Tyrion had tried to work out a peace, Rob was already on his way to attack them. I feel that should have been mentioned.

[@AlbertAlbertB.]

high pitch schwift is the best thing I have ever heard.

[@chad5965]

Coincidentally listened to this chapter the same day I watched Oppenheimer and gotta say I think the gleeful feeling some people in power get knowing they can cause this apocalyptic power was shown in a lot of the military leaders. It’s cool that these themes of power that no one should really have carry out through these different narratives! Love your analysis always, Schwift!

‘Stick that in your Funk and Wagnells’ Killed me

[@willbeard4835]

"I'll confess I do not know what I'm talking about"😂

[@evancarlson5805]

The alchemists are able to make more wildfire than they expect after the dragons are born. I think that strongly implies they are doing real magic.

[@TheeAmethystEmpress6589]

Holy shit fuck balls! I didnt know you were such an amazing voice actor! I'm blown away!

[@jovial.milieu]

30:08 - "I'm a bit drunk" LOL I love you more than you'll ever know But seriously, the philosophical bits like these are pure gold!

[@ferrousallotrope]

Chiron was the centaur. Charon was the river styx ferryman

[@jolinefields3460]

I’m so happy to hear you’re abridging around Westeros😊 (I’m subscribed with notifications on and KZbin still doesn’t send info or even show up on your site until it wants to so forgive me I’m really enjoying all of your content and yeah some times it’s humiliating to run into old comments from yourself from a few years ago when I first discovered your channel and even then I’m still always so happy to hear these for first or tenth time❤🎉))

[@patrickwishart5632]

You were actually describing a Coronal Mass Ejection! Gamma ray bursts happen when black holes form or when two neutron stars collide. Still super cool though!

[@MrValis169]

I believe he was describing the Carrington event in particular

[@jannikgotpanick1469]

He literally corrected himself 10 seconds later

[@ihavenomouthandimusttype9729]

1:04:50 The prophet is likely paid by either Littlefinger or Varys. The information is too accurate: I don’t think Martin would make such an obvious blunder. Given Littlefinger prefers to manipulate the nobility and Varys is behind Cersei’s destabilisation of Kings Landing I’d presume Varys. Perhaps he’s paying them or perhaps he’s either directly or indirectly dripfeeding information.

[@WorthlessWinner]

11:00 people who think the dragons are good keep forgetting they're A METAPHOR FOR NUKES in a book by an anti war protester!

[@coopy6425]

Ohhh I love these more please

[@louisroy4911]

You said Mayhaps not once but twice in this video… are you planning on killing us all Shwifty?

[@violetsapphire952]

He's describing solar flares, but Gamma Ray Bursters are even scarier.

[@JJ__]

"anyway! smash that fucking like button"

[@louisroy4911]

I’m pretty sure a comet is different than a shooting star, but the celestial events connection remains a great point!

[@thisguy8106]

I will say this much lol.. if you are wrong, the last 3 minutes of this podcast will be hard to stomach and I bet Preston plays it on a loop if he's right 😆 For me, I just know that anything is possible until the books are released and I love the story even more because of all the crazy theories.

[@francislachapelle123]

Watching this 2 years later, and still the Winds of Winter isn't released yet. It's kind of depressing to know that G.R.R. Martin is freaking 78 YEARS OLD! I don't have high hope for this book, and even less for A Dream of Spring :(

[@JoshuaKevinPerry]

lol. you should have known 5 years ago

[@jameshart2693]

Bible series?

[@davidanderson5685]

My favourite episode 😍

[@tessierashpoolmg7776]

It was Charon the ferry man.

[@w0ttheh3ll]

Our sun does not produce gamma ray bursts. If it would, earth would vaporize. GRBs are rather powerful. Fun fact: nearby GRBs, at least one class of them, could become predictable events in the next decades if we build more advanced gravitational wave detectors.

[@aliejosephvalente]

Schwifty dropping Oppenheimer references before Nolan made it cool 👌🏻

[@jolinefields3460]

😂and fyi in 2023 we actually got hit by a very week gamma ray burst and they (NASA?) didn’t even tell us about it until several months later and we didn’t know we were somehow supposed to have shit hit the fan and maybe not survive 😂

[@aliejosephvalente]

Yup, that happened 😕

[@matguerra333]

MAKE SCHWIFT GREAT AGAIN. It's time for the next chapter, please. I'm trying to pull off a schwift abridged while following along on audible, and following along HBO...gettin high time for a new chapter.

[@JoshuaKevinPerry]

he's not finishing it, that's the joke

[@deffientllynotjalenbutler1736]

You’ve heard on bomb under the table

[@AnarchoCatBoyEthan]

lmao everybody retroactively feeling shwifty is foolish because he’s dropping oppenheimer quotes and everybody’s like “yeah i saw the movie”. funny how popular culture works. obviously people knew oppie and the quote before that, but not everyone

[@astronaughte]

I know this is ancient history by now, but I'm not sure why Tyrion would be apologetic to the Freys for his family's war crimes.

[@miketrujillo3677]

I think it's like a mob boss accepting coming In on an acquaintances business knowing his guys are gonna use it up and burn it down

[@osmundkettleback5815]

Wait does this man deadass have an ex-wife?

[@adipsous]

Carina, i think he said?

[@ceilingfanenthusiast6041]

I mean he also says that he was born 10000 something years ago, remembers watching neanderthals evolve and that he has 60 millions relatives named Jemimah who tell him wacky stories lol.

[@TammyJerkChicken]

Aw I just missed this!?! T.T

[@michal22011]

This quote "i am destroyer of the worlds" is from Hindi religion book "Gita". In original this quote is said by one of the three brothers who made other two brothers to fight each other. Guy like Oppenheimer surely knew that. So in what context he used this quote? Was he sad that he invented weapon of my destruction? Or was he satisfied with power of changing the world into nuclear dust?

[@superkidplays6555]

Isn’t it Charon? The ferryman, I mean?

[@Nacho-db3dc]

Bro I thought I had this but I was still stuck on pyromancer

[@vanshpersie07]

Charon

[@margaritaquiroga8712]

You sound like someone enjoying a lemonade...

[@Mari-tc4gw]

1:09:23

[@Nacho-db3dc]

Oh my God it's almost like the people in charge have no interest in the rest of us keep voting for big government

[@T00THY_0RiFiCE]

A +

[@deffientllynotjalenbutler1736]

Enter the alchemists

[@PabbyPabbles]

synecdoche the word you're trying to google is "synecdoche"

[@QueenDaenerysTargaryen]

My reign is just begun. 🐉🐲🐉

[@liberTvalance]

What language did you speak in Babylon? Baby talk?

[@frankleyJ]

The queen the queen the queen... she's not the queen so wah for her

[@KaladinVegapunk]

Haha Oppenheimer wasn't saying i am become death destroyer of worlds as a stoked badass brag..it was a horrified admission that he'd played a part in creating the most horrific weapon humanity has ever conceived hahaha He most definitely wasn't saying it positively or excusing his invention, it was the opposite of the alchemists

[@ignotouno523]

That's exactly what he said.

[@yeyehastaol2155]

so, your big brain cant differentiate what is a body of water and a body of human? are they morally relative?

[@btarczy5067]

"Fickle, queer fruits [...]" ProbleMATIC, mate! #cancelschwift #pleasedontcancelschwiftacokabrigdgedistheshit

[@wisdommanari6701]

Lmao

[@AJaxdoesgaming]

Did he say the fucking n-word? 54:40

[@trevinwolverine1904]

Niggardly. Close but no cigar lmao

[@aliejosephvalente]

That was a close one.

[@nononono3421]

Jaime and Cersei will blow up the wildfire cache they'll find when trying to escape the Red Keep as Dany and her troops sack the city, to give everyone a big FU. No Jaime isn't the Valonqar. "Choking the life out of you" is Cersei being choked leading to a miscarriage, Jaime saves her life from the choking dude. Ya heard it here first.

[@matguerra333]

X tfiwhcs tla= Alt Schwift X

[@GREATGAIWAIN]

Preston Jacobs thinks there is no magic on the story so I think we can safely ignore most of what he says.

[@wisdommanari6701]

Martin says he blends magic and sci-fi

[@Don11037]

Talk about the book not bullshit
