The Lorehounds

Was looking for an Agatha All Along recap podcast and this has been perfect. Very knowledgeable about comics and other media, well researched, and thoughtful takes

Started following this podcast after they started doing their Rings of Power overviews. I haven’t read the Silmarillion in many years and these guys can really distill that lore down in nice bite sized and relevant chunks to give me that deeper context for that is being shown and refresh my memory. They also usually have a lore expert for that property and a more casual fan involved in any podcast that gives you a really balanced perspective for things. Marilyn’s addition to the show is lovely this season helping me with pronunciation and I love it.

Just finished season 2 coverage of rings of power. And it confirmed to me that this isn’t a good podcast. Deleted immediately from my library. First off David acted in the wrap up pod like he loved the show. Nope. You didn’t. Listen to the first 4 episodes. You yourself said you didn’t like them. But hey the season is over so I might as well not be the only be that doesn’t like something so I’ll join the rest of you. That alone makes your opinion not mean anything. They are the only podcast I have found that seems to hate the Peter Jackson movies and this show for connecting itself to them. They are also the only podcast that is mad at the show for having the dark wizard be Saruman. I didn’t hear one other show feel that it’s Saruman likes these folks did. And last thing. The rolling of the r’s is outrageous. If she was my professor, I don’t care how much she knows, I would leave that class and drop it before the first class even ended. The people in the show don’t pronounce things this way. So guess what you don’t either. Talk like a human being. Not one person is impressed by this. Just overall a poor podcast for a show they claim to be lorehounds for. If you guys don’t like the movies. Than please start a book only podcast and leave the show for us. Oh and did you head. They have screeners. Screeners screeners screeners. Holy moly are they proud of themselves for this. So lame.

No respect
