We all love talking Game of Thronesas soon as a new episode ends,Spain but let's face it -- that conversation was always happening on social media. It makes sense, then, that HBO will move Bill Simmons' After the Thrones-- now redubbed Talk the Thrones -- to Twitter and Periscope for piping hot post-show takes.

As C.E.O. of The Ringer, Simmons' Thronesenterprises include Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan's The Watch, Binge Mode, Ask the Maester on Facebook Live, and weekly recaps.
"Talk the Thronesbrings the witty banter and real-time analysis you find on Twitter to a live show with hosts that keep it engaging well after the TV show ends," Twitter chief operating officer and chief financial officer Anthony Noto told THR. "The Ringercontinues to produce unique live shows about some of the most-discussed entertainment and sports topics on Twitter."
