Join Joey (@joeytheprince) and Caitlin (@celloandbehold) as we journey through the Lord of the Rings, horse by horse.
This episode covers the prologue through chapter 5 of the first book and up until minute marker 57:40 in the corresponding film. Next episode will cover chapters 6 through 12 and the film section between 57:40 and 1:24:00. 
We recorded this episode before the Black Lives Matter protests started, but we unequivocally support that work and have been donating and engaging in local efforts to defund, disarm, demilitarize, and disband police forces. We encourage you to do the same as you are able. Also check out this document for a few resources on racism in fantasy:

NOTICE: There is some weird audio stuff in this episode because Joey accidentally recorded with their built-in computer mic. We're very sorry, and it was fixed before we recorded the next episode. Thanks for bearing with us!

This is a special episode in which we had the honor of chatting with Molly (@MollyOstertag or @hobbitgay) about Sam and Frodo being incredibly gay for each other and how much Sam projects on Bill the Pony. You can find her incredible fanfic here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/25095466/chapters/60793246
 
(Sorry about the extra background noise! Recording audio is difficult!)
