My absolute favourite podcast, and no danger of it ending any time soon!

Exploring Lord of the Rings
An incredible podcast! So much interesting detail for any Tolkien fan. Professor Olsen is extremely knowledgeable and manages to involve the listeners - whether they be experts themselves or new to Tolkien.
