Talking Tolkien: Pete, Indj, and the LOTR Films

Ten Very Big Books — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 07:00:49 +0000

Hey everybody!

This is our first bonus episode here on Patreon, thanks for backing the show. Hit us up if there's a problem with the delivery of this episode. There should be a separate RSS feed link for the Patreon Bonus Shows. We plan on releasing these bonus episodes on the second Friday of each month....We'll keep you updated about this.

We want to try out some different types of shows here on the Patreon, so to kick it off India watch the LOTR Films and we discussed her thoughts on the films and then contrasted a bit between Tolkien and Malazan. We'll probably do another Tolkien thing eventually too. In addition to talking more Malazan, we'll probably deep our feet in another Fantasy Pool or two here on the patreon.

Thanks again, very sincerely! . We're going to do another post about some goals and ow we plan to use the money going forward. Look for it next week.

Let us know what you think of the bonus episode, and what other types of books or shows you might think would work for the show!
