Welcome to the ninth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! To start the week we have a unique episode, where I took questions from listeners on Twitter!

I won't be linking the article as I don't think we should be rewarding clickbait headlines, but it allowed us to have an interesting discussion about adaptation and fan ownership.

Welcome to the forty-fourth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! Today’s episode is a very rough and ready reaction to Bear McCreary's soundtrack album for Season 2, which was released at the end of last week. This will be a similar episode to the two-parter I did for the Season 1 album, in that it won’t be a detailed analysis of the individual tracks and all the musical nuances contained within. However, I hope you enjoy my joyful and enthusiastic review of these 25 tracks.

Welcome to the forty-second episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! On August 14th the final trailer for Season 2 was released and to mark the occasion, I decided to host the first ever DailyRoP livestream on YouTube. I was joined as usual by Anna to discuss and analyse the trailer, with the added bonus of getting to interact with the viewers in the liver chat offering their own insights. As I know some of you don't use YouTube or instead prefer an audio-only format, I have put together the recording from the livestream as the latest episode.

Welcome to the thirty-ninth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! San Diego Comic-Con arrived, and with it came the best trailer we have ever seen for The Rings of Power.

| 04 Aug 2024 | Episode 40 - Medieval Musings with Geo | 02:57:21 | |
Welcome to the fortieth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! We’re back today with a rather special episode, as it marks the return of the format where I invite guests on from the Tolkien community to come on and chat about a topic of their choosing. Today I am bringing you a conversation with my good friend Geo (@kingslayars), who is a font of knowledge when it comes to all things medieval literature. We spent a good 3 hours talking about all things Medieval, the influence of that time period on Tolkien’s work, and how The Rings of Power has continued to draw upon Medieval tales and ideas. We cover everything from the role of oaths, to the significance of swords, and the place of rings in the tradition of gift giving. On top of that, we also touch on some of the Medieval influences we see in The Rings of Power’s costumer, set, and prop design.

| 23 Aug 2023 | Episode 32 - Celebrimbor, Oppenheimer & Middle-earth's Prometheus | 00:47:03 | |
Welcome to the thirty-second episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! The podcast is back again... for a second return from the dead! This episode is slightly different than our usual format as I dive into a comparison between Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and Tolkien's legendarium, taking aim at the theme of creators and their creations. We explore what parallels exist between Nolan's depiction of Oppenheimer and Tolkien's own mythical creators, seeing where they fit the Promethean model, and how all creators lose control over their creations. I hope you enjoy this diversion from our usual format, but we'll back in the future with our usual analysis of The Rings of Power as we look ahead to Season 2!

| 22 May 2024 | Episode 35 - Teaser Trailer Discussion with Anna | 03:40:19 | |
Welcome to the thirty-fifth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast! It's finally here! Our first look at Season 2 arrived not just with a teaser trailer, but also a fascinating behind-the-scenes video giving us an exciting look at what's to come! With so much new content to discuss, I knew that I'd need to call Anna for a detailed discussion of everything we saw and what it all might mean. Join us as we discuss the tragic tale of Celebrimbor, the Lord of Gifts and Wigs, and the many ways our favourite characters seem to be in danger! Timestamps:
