I’ve been binge listening to all the episodes for nearly 2 months ago now and just want to say how amazing this is made. I recently went to Florida too and was thinking how amazing would a lord of the rings theme park be like the ones in universal. Love the work keep it up robots.
I love Robots Radio, I followed him along from the elder scrolls lore podcast and fallout lore podcast to this one!
Amazing storytelling. Tells it how it is. And gives you the stuff you really wanna know.
We love you Robots Radio! Keep doing what you’re doing!
Highly recommend for any LOTR fans looking to get more insight “into Tolkien’s amazing world from the very beginning”!

After listening to this pod since the Silmarillion days, it’s easy to say that Robots is second to none when it comes to dissecting Tolkiens extensive world. He’s a class act with his insight and peaks my love of these stories even more every time I listen every week! Thank you so much Tom for all your hard work and natural talent! PS- how do you think the Hunt for Gollum will turn out?
