Dean is very knowledgeable and pleasant to listen to. He clearly researches a lot and I enjoy his takes. Frankly, I have no idea what Aric is doing on the podcast. He doesn’t seem to be more than a very casual Tolkien reader, and he’s always trying to crack the most unfunny jokes and makes weird sound effects. Over all it’s a good run down/summary of The Silmarillion. Edit since there’s a new co-host: Alex is sort of just the female version of Aric, also making weird sound effects and dragging out jokes that don’t land and aren’t funny. The bit about Sauron as Ezra Miller was super unfunny, and she kept just beating that dead horse.
Love this!

I have loved reading a chapter of the Silmarillion and then listening to these guys summarize it. It’s helped me understand more dense parts of the book. Really hope they are planning on continuing where they left off with the Silmarillion when Rings of Power came out because I’m now on Ch. 21!!
Is EVERY battle gonna have that stupid music?

Seriously, love the show, but that pulls me out of the story. I get the bit, but come on.
I much excitement

I love the world Tolkien created and once tried to read The Silmarillion, and then failed in that endeavor. Miserably. I’ve needed this podcast for a very long time! Thank you for doing the work I obviously am not cut out for!
