  • Great show for Tolkien beginners and experts alike!

    I have never read any of Tolkien’s books before. But it’s okay because Alex has and knows exactly what he’s talking about! And Jessica is a newbie too, there to help us along the way! It’s great deep dive into Lord of the Rings lore and very listener friendly!
