New Series from HistoryBuffs Podcast: Game of Thrones // Parallels in History

Katherine Smyser Discussion

Good morning!

The producers of the HistoryBuffs Podcast are excited to announce that we have begun an exciting 3-part mini-series entitled "Game of Thrones // Parallels in History" in anticipation of the April 24th debut of Game of Thrones Season 6 on HBO.

Our first episode dropped on Sunday and explores the similarities between the border walls in the series and Hadrian's Wall in the north of England. Subsequent episodes will cover siege warfare and parallels between the fictional Lord of Light and the ancient religion of Zoroastrianism.

You can follow the series and find all back episodes at historybuffs.org, on iTunes, or wherever you get your favorite podcasts. We hope you'll join us!

For the HistoryBuffs,

Katie Smyser
Co-Creator and Producer
