Goldwine ,

Excellente présentation

L'émission est tournée à la fois sur l'aspect littéraire, cinématographique et video ludique du monde de Tolkien. Le présentateur aborde différents sujets en se basant sur l'évolution du personnage qu'il incarne dans LOTR Online: Shadows of Angmar. Même s'ils sont en anglais, ces podcast sont tout à fait compréhensibles. Par ailleurs, si l'appartenance affichée de l'émission à un groupe catholique américain, il s'avère en fait qu'ils ne parlent que peu de religion au cours des différents épisodes.
