Episode 8: Lord of the Rings Part 2 with Dallas Amico

One does not simply podcast into Mordor. In Part 2 of this mega-pod, Conrad and Dallas return to discuss the Hobbit books, the Peter Jackson trilogy and the new Rings of Power show! Topics include 1) why Conrad considers The Two Towers to be the weakest Peter Jackson installment, while Dallas considers it the best; 2) the casting choices both in the films and the new show, and 3) what this story has to say about the world Tolkien lived in; what does this story ultimately have to say about war, friendship, and your place in your own homeland? Yes, it gets a little serious! We might get a little misty-eyed. This is the final installment of our look at the Lord of the Rings books and movies, but there will be one final mini-pod coming soon: a reaction to the Rings of Power finale!
