Hello and welcome to the NotACast, the one true chapter-by-chapter podcast going through A Song of Ice and Fire one chapter a week!\n\xa0\n\nIn this episode, Emmett is taking a well-deserved week off which means that Jeff will inflict himself upon you all by taking a look at the Five Year Gap and why it was bad. Also, you're a coward if you disagree with me.\n\xa0\nThis week, we:\xa0\n\xa0\n\n- Define what the Five-Year Gap was and how it came into existence\n- Talk about all of the plots GRRM had in mind for a post-five year gap version of ADWD\n- Talk about which characters the gap worked well for and which it didn't\n- Argue that the Five-Year Gap was bad in many way\n- Ask whether the Five-Year Gap is truly gone.\n\n\nNext week: Emmett's doppelganger/boyfriend Mance Rayder has a few questions for Jon Snow. Just a few in ASOS, Jon I!\n\xa0\nOur patreon:\xa0www.patreon.com/NotACastASOIAF\n\xa0\nOur merch store:\xa0https://notacastasoiaf.threadless.com\xa0\xa0\n\n\n\xa0\nOur twitter:\xa0twitter.com/NotACastASOIAF\n\n\n\xa0\nOur facebook:\xa0www.facebook.com/groups/289889118235797/\n\n\n\xa0\nOur youtube page:\xa0www.youtube.com/channel/UCmmDfPdG\u2026iew_as=subscriber\n\n\n\xa0\nEmmett's twitter:\xa0twitter.com/PoorQuentyn\n\n\n\xa0\nJeff's twitter:\xa0twitter.com/BryndenBFish
