Episode Notes Good morning and welcome! Speak, friend, and enter the Bag End Book Club, a celebration of Tolkien's most famous and influential works. Every two weeks we will come together having read a handful of chapters and discuss the stories of Middle-Earth, from the Hobbit to the Lord of the Rings and further on to the Silmarillion. Stop a moment and enjoy some good company and better books. In this episode we discuss the first four chapters of the Fellowship of the Ring! What begins with a simple outpouring of affection leads to a conversation about the writing styles of fantasy authors, depictions of evil, and more! Next episode: Chapters 5-8 of Fellowship of the Ring! Remember: patrons of Export Audio get episodes a week early! Just a dollar at exportaud.io gets you that and all sorts of other shows, AND helps us keep the lights on!
