  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 19 » Of Beren and Lúthien

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 19 » Of Beren and Lúthien
    Jun 30 2025
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 19 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of Beren and Lúthien.
    In my view, “Of Beren and Lúthien” is the crown jewel of The Silmarillion. I love it so much I wrote a book about it. It was one of Tolkien’s favorites too, and it’s one of the longest chapters in The Silmarillion. It picks up where the last chapter left off, in the aftermath of the Battle of Sudden Flame.

  • Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 17 » Of the Coming of Men Into the West

    Silmarillion 2025 » Ch 17 » Of the Coming of Men Into the West
    Jun 17 2025
    Our 2025 Silmarillion journey continues with Chapter 17 of Quenta Silmarillion - Of the Coming of Men Into the West.
    In Chapter 17, we learn of the first Men to enter into Beleriand. Furthermore, we learn about the beginnings of their relationship with the Elves, and what the term Edain means. By the way, this is the last relatively calm chapter in The Silmarillion. The stage has been set, and a lot of adventure, war, and destruction is about to be unleashed.

Featured Article: Galadriel—A Lord of the Rings Character Guide


Galadriel is one of the most significant characters both in J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy and the wide history of Middle-earth more generally. If you've listened to The Lord of the Rings or seen any of the film adaptations, then you're likely well aware of who Galadriel is. But what, exactly, makes her so important? What is her history? This character guide is here to answer all of your questions about the powerful Elf Galadriel, the Lady of Lórien.

Hi guys! I really enjoy your show. I’ve finally been able to follow along with the Silmarillion and looking to get back to those.

I’ve had a hard time with the shows geared around RoP. The amount of negativity towards timeline issues and basically everything else. There is a lot of good in the show too, so much that does stay true to Tolkien.

Literally the first thing I said when she mentioned Celeborn is “Oh good, John will be happy now” lol. But no, still complaining about them not having a daughter. There’s so many characters in this world and moving pieces, the storytellers do need to limit how many characters they add. I’m sure we will see him next season and she will get pregnant at the end of the show. It will be fine.

This is an awesome moment in time where we get to explore new places in Tolkiens world and this show has done an amazing job of that! Just enjoy it.

Calm down

I've been a longtime listener, introduced first through Spotify. John and Greta do a great job bringing the works of Tolkien into podcast form and make a solid pair of presenters. When the show began, one of the hosts had written a book on Beren and Luthien; the other had almost no knowledge of Tolkien's works. As John and Greta journeyed through Tolkien's works, I (someone who's been reading Tolkien since I was 8) really appreciated the perspective Greta brought into the show. So many podcasts on Tolkien are just super fans; it was refreshing getting someone experiencing it all for the first time while being guided by someone of expert level. It would be foolish to think a podcast about Tolkien would not discuss religion at all, but I found this to always be more of a scholarly way of discussing it, and it's always been very level headed, anyone concerned about that should be at ease. It's been a wonderful 300 episodes and I'm thrilled to see what's to come. I'll end with a quote that I believe these two have followed pretty well. "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world." The road goes ever on indeed, and I'm glad to be on it.

Longtime listener, finally able to leave a review
