Ben once said that if we ever covered Tolkien it would have to be an entirely different podcast. Nate said "Ok." Now here we are, talking about Tolkien. On this podcast we will go through Tolkien's books chapter by chapter adding context and discussing the real world inspirations behind the story. You're encouraged to read along with us. In this episode, we discuss Chapter One of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Party.
