The last two episodes have dropped some teasers regarding some sort of surprise that "can't be revealed yet". So, in traditional ASOIAF fan-theory fashion, I figured I'd start a speculation thread . My theory is that there will be a guest appearance by a Game of Thrones cast member. I think it's pretty obvious when Kyle says "we can get [??????] on anytime now, although... he's about to start filming the next season." So the question becomes: who will it be? Based on a thorough analysis of the episode 84 aftershow, I have learned that:

1) It's probably not Masie Williams or Alfie Allen, as these names aren't edited out as the hosts joke around during the heavily censored conversation.
2) It's one of the male actors, since Kyle refers to him as a "he".
3) He's going to be in the next season.

Also, the podcasters seemingly try to call him towards the end of Episode 85 and we get this additional information:

4) Amin wants to get him to say something specific (edited out) which Ashley says would be pretty corny.
5) Mimi says, "Holy shit, if he answers I'm going to pee myself."

Based on Mimi's previous musings on GOT actors, #5 on its own would lead me to believe it may be someone like Richard Madden (Robb) or whoever it is that plays Gendry. However I think they may be a bit too high profile for the podcast. #4, on the other hand, makes me think that the character has a specific phrase associated with them... so I'm predicting it might be Kristian Nairn (Hodor!). He seems to be just accessible enough to appear on a fan podcast.

Anyways, this concludes our episode of CSI: Westeros. This post has gotten a lot longer than I thought it would be. With my luck the identity of the guest has already been revealed in another post I've missed . What say you?

Regarding Ep.84 (I don't have listened to 85):

- In fact I don't think they talk about Kristian in the long, first edited part.

- The "We can get [????] any time" - line from Kyle comes much later. I'm pretty sure they talk about Kristian Nairn/Hodor in that case. And if they really try to call him in Ep.85 that would fit. And we know that Kyle has met him several times - so a "quick, unscheduled call-in" would fit for Kristian very well.

But I conclude: There is at least one (maybe even two?) other surprise(s) comin up... My tip would be Alfie Allen. He seems weird/crazy (in a good way) enough to do such an "interview".

Oh - great. If anything like that happens I congratulate the crew - you worked and talked long for the appreciation of the fandom. And such a coup would shoot the listeners-count up.

can we refer to he/she/them as The Guest That Was Promised?

Make it so!

Vibe I'm getting is that it's not a guest, but another possible opportunity. How would having a guest on the show make it easier to get press passes to Comic Con?

Sometimes the best place to hide guest names (or other potential surprises) is out in the open



Other way around

Another possibility is Bryan Cogman. Didn't he reply that he might find the time to do it later? I know that he is busy with shooting but that goes for every cast/crew member.

Or, maybe its GRRM?

Is this a little person joke?

If so.... wow. On multiple levels.

Amin is obviously being cast as Darkstar. Duh.

Well, they said it was porn, so the real question is who is Kyle going to be fucking first.

It's probably Kristian Nairn.

If so, the hosts ought to make lots of references to Lily Allen's 'Alfie' song, because that'd surely never get old.

Ooooo deary me,
My little brother's in his bedroom smoking weed,
I tell him he should get up cos it's nearly half past three
He can't be bothered cos he's high on THC.
I ask him very nicely if he'd like a cup of tea,
I can't even see him cos the room is so smoky,
Don't understand how one can watch so much TV,
My baby brother Alfie how I wish that you could see.

That's a sweet ass song!

OMG! OMG! OMG! I still have so many podcasts to catch up on...at this rate I will have to do some insane 24 hr marathon to catch up...I have no idea who it could be

Tom Wlaschiha. A man has guessed.

Amrita Acharia, it is known.

F¥€king Hot Pie...mark it down.

Seriously, if they have someone from the show than what the hell will Mimi ask them since she has STILL not watched S2!?!?!

BTW, is anyone else having any crazy background issues with the forum? I can't even read the posts due to a pic of a dragon tiled in the background!

Whhhaaaaaaa!?!?! Nope can't say I've been having this problem.

I've noticed in the last two Mimi episodes that she's no longer getting all the inside jokes (from the show, or the podcast episodes without her). Mimi needs to get back in dat loop.
