  1. EPISODE 1

    32: Prepped and Primed

    Episode Notes An episode nearly two years in the making...only because we never came back to give our opinions about the entire first season of The Rings of Power. Now that tempers have soothed and sharp tongues have dulled with time's weathering, we are ready to share our feelings, as well as our grand expectations for Season 2! It's good to be back!

  2. EPISODE 2

    33: Liquid Goo Phase Complete

    Episode Notes Three whole episodes! Things we liked, things we didn't, and what our hopes are for the rest of the second season for The Rings of Power.

  3. EPISODE 3

    34: I Came Here For A Dark Lord And All I Got Were These Stinky Hobbits

    Episode Notes Silly hobbits! Wacky Wizards! Even some star-crossed vibes for our favorite horse-boy! Still, it feels like something is missing. We analyze the first on-screen depiction of Tom Bombadil and worry about the fact that we are already halfway through Season 2. A bit of a moan-and-groan episode, but to be fair, it doesn't meet any of our rubric expectations so... Check William out on Twitter @halfaswellpod

  4. EPISODE 4

    35: Seize The Rings of Production

    Episode Notes We're finally getting into some major plot points this season...at episode 5/8. We discuss the progress in Eregion, problems with time compression in Númenor, and some weirdness around Sauron's seductions. Check William out on Twitter @halfaswellpod

  5. EPISODE 5

    36: Three To End It All

    Episode Notes Sorry for the wait, we know you all didn't know what to even make of the final episodes without our witticisms to instruct your opinions /s In truth, we recorded this an entire week ago and just kept forgetting to upload it. That's a pretty good indicator of how we felt about these final three episodes, as well as the movement of the show all together. Hint: not great. In the future, we are planning to go back to what we love - analyzing the writing of Tolkien, so we can do something other than whinge. We'll keep an eye on adaptations as well as they come.
