I have been listening to this podcast since its very earliest days in 2011. It feels monumental to have a podcast that is still going so strong well after the departure of the original host, but now past the official life of the game as well.
Always a joy to listen to.
Just starting the game and followed other people’s recommendations. Excellent podcast. Worth your time.
Best LotR LCG podcast!
I discovered this podcast and their associated discord server shortly after getting into the lord of the rings card game. This podcast is absolutely amazing for learning about the game and coordinating the community, which itself is best of breed. The only downside is the frequent talk of hunting. I do my best to fast forward the segments where they’re talking about murdering animals, though.
I just got the game in April of 2022 and this podcast is amazing for reliving the life cycle of the game. Amazing that the podcast is still going after more then 10 years. Such a wonderful game and this podcast makes play it a lot easier. Thank you and keep making more shows
