I didn't write it down.
E
19:54ElsbethGUEST
But something that gives me some hope is we have a Lord Varys on our side, a real life Lord Varys.
E
20:00ElsbethGUEST
And if anybody, you know, what is
M
20:02MikeHOST
that?
E
20:39ElsbethGUEST
You could just put it on recording like, OK, guys, I'll be back in a couple of hours.
E
20:43ElsbethGUEST
Do you think I'm sure we would just geek out the whole time and go back and forth? Well, hey, you know what? Well, I'd love to talk to you, buddy, because, you know, the Game of Thrones thing for me is so there's so many crossovers.
E
20:55ElsbethGUEST
And so I had hours of conversation about this Lord Varys that is helping my friend kind of like understand things.
E
21:02ElsbethGUEST
And to the point where it's like there's like a 10 year plan to undermine this.

And so I don't have my notes on this.
E
20:15ElsbethGUEST
I didn't write it down, but something that gives me some hope is we have a Lord Varys on our side, a real life Lord Varys.
E
20:23ElsbethGUEST
And if anybody, you know, that is a game of Thrones, game of Thrones reference.
E
20:30ElsbethGUEST
So if you're a throne, if you're a GOT person, okay, go ahead, go ahead.
E

I think we might be better for it.
R
32:24Rob MahoneyHOST
Also like Varys in Game of Thrones just for the bit.
R
32:29Rob MahoneyHOST
Just why not? You know, let's get him a sweet, sweet bangs related toupee.
R
32:33Rob MahoneyHOST
I think he really could have pulled it off.

Before Ned could respond, Littlefinger melted back into the shadows, leaving only questions behind.
S

Varys found Ned later that evening, the spider's soft footsteps announcing him despite their silence.

Young Griff
L
4:21LizHOST
As we know, at the end of season four, Tyrion gets his personal revenge against his father by killing him.
L
4:28LizHOST
Then Varys helps him escape and they arrive in Pentos.
L
4:33LizHOST
The plan is for them to get to Meereen and help Daenerys.
L
4:36LizHOST
Of course, Jorah Mormont ends up kidnapping Tyrion and brings him to Daenerys sooner.
L
7:28LizHOST
Yes, he claims this is Aegon, Rhaegar's son.
L
7:32LizHOST
The one everyone says had his head smashed in by Gregor Clegane.
L
7:37LizHOST
At this point, you might be thinking, what the hell? It's explained that Varys had orchestrated a baby swap.
L
7:45LizHOST
The baby that died years earlier was a tanner's son who had too many kids and was fine with giving up his newest baby for a bottle of rare wine.

Rhaegar.
N
79:10NavHOST
Oh, is Varys...
N
79:11NavHOST
Varys has got to be in the play, right?
C
79:13ClaudiaGUEST
Varys is in the play.
C
79:15ClaudiaGUEST
Is he doing
N
79:15NavHOST
weird scheming things where he's feeling the paranoia
C
79:21ClaudiaGUEST
yes and pretty much the reason Aerys is even at the tourney because he's not supposed to be there because Varys told him and there's also because we were already talking about this theory about young Griff there is a scene between Varys and Elia where Ilya is okay, Rhaegar's off, who knows where, you know, they don't know, he's disappeared, and Ilya knows, okay, the news is really tightening around her and her children, it's really getting dangerous, and Varys actually offers to bring her children to safety.
C
79:55ClaudiaGUEST
Interesting.
Episode 179 - Wulfies - BWS1E7

56:53SpencerHOST
Plus, there's only a couple minutes left in the episode.
S
56:55SpencerHOST
Varys.
E
56:56EileenHOST
Okay.
E
56:57EileenHOST
Wow.
S
57:04SpencerHOST
That you're putting other characters into
E
57:07EileenHOST
it.
E
57:07EileenHOST
Here's no, in this paragraph, I saw the word Varys and here's why.
E
57:11EileenHOST
Okay.
Episode 264: A FEAST FOR CROWS, SAMWELL IV: "Changes"
E
37:24EmmettHOST
That frustrates Dany because she's still so far from home.
E
37:27EmmettHOST
It frustrates Varys and Illyrio because it changes their own puppet master plans for her.
E
37:32EmmettHOST
And now we have a whole new reason to curse the Miranese nod.
E
37:35EmmettHOST
It's keeping Dany from being in the place she needs to be to use her dragons against the White Walkers.
Did Tywin Lannister Have A Mistress? - ASOIAF
R
2:57RobertHOST
When Tyrion crept into his father's chambers at the end of A Storm of Swords, Shay was there, lying naked in his bed.
R
3:04RobertHOST
This was no set-up, by the way, other than Varys probably knowing and gently pushing Tyrion in that direction.
R
3:10RobertHOST
Shay thought the sound of Tyrion entering was Tywin, and was visibly shocked when it turned out to be Tyrion.
R
3:16RobertHOST
Tywin presumably had already seen that she could be discreet and also bought.
R
3:27RobertHOST
In fact, there is a persistent fan theory that Tywin had long done the very things he criticised Tyrion for.
R
3:33RobertHOST
It's just that, whereas Tyrion did it all publicly, he did it in secret.
R
3:38RobertHOST
When, in a clash of kings, Tyrion wants to keep Shae's presence a secret, but still visit her regularly, he confides in Varys.
R
3:46RobertHOST
Tyrion had set Shae up in a manse on the far side of the city, but knew that Cersei and others would be keeping an eye on him, and so he needed to find a way to visit her in secret.
