Have you ever wanted to know more about the world of Lord of the Rings?

Maybe you even started the Silmarillion but couldn't get into it. Too many names (usually beginning with 'Fin', let's be honest).

I feel you. And I have your back.

Join me and my wife as I do all the research for you and explain all the amazing stuff hidden within Tolkien's works. There's like 50 years he was writing for so there's a lot.

The podcast breaks down Middle-earth's history like I'm your pal at the pub. I keep it accessible and relatable because as many people as possible should appreciate Tolkien's world.

    This guy is like 4000 years old, and we only see him for a short time in Lord of the Rings. Criminal. Let's look at why he was the chief of Sauron's servants.

    We're joined by Aleks Pointyeared from the Fellowship of the Readers book club. A tight-knit discord community currently reading The Fall of Númenor. Come join us! Links below.



    We put the elves' favourite badlad on trial for his actions. Becca is the judge, our guest is the defence and I am the outnumbered prosecution. We look at Fëanor's life and actions, as well as digging into some deep lore such as very petty behaviour in relation to language.
