  • Looking forward to season 4

    Picked up the podcast on a friends’s recommendation, and burnt through Seasons 1-3 in a matter of weeks. Really entertaining. I liked the way the D&D format made the deep dive into Tolkien lore accessible.

    Looking forward to Sembia.

  • Too short episodes

    45 secs intro

    15-30 secs outro

    6-12 mins-long episodes, intro&outro included…

    Content is good, but way too fragmented

  • Great Adventures in the world of Tolkien/Forgotten Realms!

    Elen síla lúmenn’ omentielvo.

    I recently started listening after finding about some of the interviews Jared had with Neo-Elvish folk. The story is true to Tolkien’s Legendarium but squeezes through and makes a fun, epic adventure. The interviews with the players and community stars, etc. are very refreshing. I would recommend for any Tolkien and D&D fan.

    Oloré! Anyone who likes the Forgotten Realms, Sembia, Cormyr, Erevis Cale, etc. Needs to treat themselves to this wonderful drama Longwinded O... more
