Chapter 10 - St(ride)r

07/15/21 • 71 min

It is a sad chapter for all pub lovers....as the hobbits leave the pub!
As they settle in for the night they see they have a mysterious (and sexy) [st]ranger in their room...called Strider!
We ask if he has better ears than Sam, better insults than Gandalf and higher notions than his film counterpart.
We talk about Gandalfs deadly poem in his letter to Frodo and stuff like how Barliman is to blame for Frodos injuries so far.
As always, we discuss how Sam is wise, Frodo is class, Pippens a moron and Merry is...where the hell is Merry?

Chapter 9 - At the Sign of the Prancing Pony

In Chapter 9 we join the hobbits in the pub. We discuss the Breeland, our love for Tolkiens character names and how Tolkien may have invented the fantasy "tavern" trope. As usual, we do a rundown of the chapter and add our tepid takes. We also chat about the mysterious folk also inside the inn and the inherent power the ring shows in this chapter.

Chapter 11 - A Knife in the Dark

In this episode we’re relieved to hear Fatty Bolger escapes death & the worlds loudest alarm is set off. We learn the Nazgul get nerfed and have a trait that lets people know that they’re about.

We discuss the whereabouts of the ponies, Sam’s impeccable aim even for a Hobbit & the questionable southerner mentioned that we give our own tepid takes about. We see the wise in Sam as he recites one of his many poems & follow the lads through their hard road to Weathertop.
