Customer Reviews
Amazing podcast!
The Tolkien Road is helpful in understanding the works and views of Tolkien. I enjoy the Catholic insight on Tolkien’s work as someone who is not Catholic and would never have noticed certain nuances without this podcast’s guidance. Through the struggles of life The Tolkien Road gives me comfort. Thank you for this wonderful podcast.
Latecomer to your wonderful Tolkien exploration
I’ve only now discovered your podcast and am having a marvelous time going back to follow your explorations into the LORC. I also listened to your #300 episode and was moved and inspired by your candid openness. Dear Tolkien must indeed be watching over you! Do keep up this valuable work! And thank you! I’m playing catch up… (I’m also drawn to the Inklings, to Lewis, and to G.K.C.)
Grateful
This podcast truly helped me as I read the Silmarillion and I love their dedication to give justice and insight on each major event and chapter. Thanks for all the time they took to make and record this show.
