Welcome to House of R, where Mallory Rubin and Joanna Robinson explore your favorite fictional universes with their signature Deep Dives into everything from Game of Thrones to Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings to Marvel, and beyond. Whether they’re parsing mythology, story themes, and character arcs or tracing influences across decades of fantasy and sci-fi stories, Jo and Mal will be here weekly with Deep Dives into new nerd culture releases, nostalgic revisitations of their favorite tales in fandom, Tropes Course examinations, Hall of Fame inductions, Hype Meters, drafts, mailbags, watch lists, top moments countdowns, recommendations, and more.
