029 – This Episode… Takes An Age

Join Alan, Sara, and James as they talk (at great length) about the third and fourth episodes in Season 2 of Amazon Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. From Isildur’s meet-cute gone bad to Tom Bombadil pet-naming habits, the RoPWU crew talk about it all, noting that when this show gets it right, they really get it right. And with a few out-of-context homages, the inverse is also true.
