Bill Simmons' partnership with HBO has spawned its first heir: a Game of Thrones after-show.

The weekly series, called After the Thrones, is set to debut the Monday after Game of Thrones' Season 6 premiere.

Podcasters Andy Greenwald and Chris Ryan, of Simmons' new content site The Ringer, will host the series, billed by HBO as a "lively, humorous and sophisticated" recap and discussion of the cable series.

IS THIS REAL LIFE

It will be available every week on HBO NOW, HBO GO and HBO On Demand, with the possibility of some episodes airing on the main HBO channel, the network said.

Talking Thrones is, of course, nothing new for Greenwald and Ryan. They previously delivered their commentary on the Watch the Thrones podcast over at now-deceased Grantland. They also host The Watch for The Ringer, the media company Simmons started after his May 2015exit from ESPN that spawned a wave of departures and Grantland's eventual shuttering.

Game of Thrones Season 6 premieres on HBO April 24.

Because every single one of us needs all the "likes" we can get. And because #nofilter is no longer a thing.  Here are six of the best iPhone photo-editing apps to d
