Daily Rings Of Power

Welcome to the fifty-third episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!
After another unexpectedly long hiatus, we're back. Season 3 is on the horizon and we have our very first teaser trailer for the upcoming season.
To breakdown all the little details, we are joined by Anna on a four hour quest to pick apart this trailer. As if no time has passed, Anna and I get straight back to concoting the most unlikely of theories, thirst over our favourite characters and storylines, and spend an alarming amount of time talking about wigs.
PSA: For any podcast only listeners looking for episodes 48 through 52, they are all available on YouTube but only as livestreams. This is due to issues recovering the audio files before I took my long unexpected break from the podcast.

Welcome to the forty-seventh episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!
I'm a week late but here is the recording of last Wednesday's livestream, where I was joined by Anna as we did one of our usual marathon-length discussions and breakdown of the first three episodes of Season 2.
The video version of the livestream is of course available on the DailyRoP YouTube channel, but this is here for all my podcast listeners who prefer the audio-only version.

Welcome to the forty-sixth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!
Oh we're so back, after 685 days we have new episodes of The Rings of Power and that means it's time for some spoiler reviews of Season 2's opening episodes!
We're starting off with the first two episodes today, and then I'll be following up with another episode reviewing the third one that was released yesterday.
I cover the overarching story arcs across the episodes, pick out some of my favourite moments, discuss some fun Tolkien easter eggs, and highlight any criticisms or concerns that I had.

Welcome to the forty-fourth episode of The Daily Rings of Power Podcast!
It's finally here, after being invited by Prime Video to attend the Season 2 world premiere in London last week, I can finally give you my full spoiler-free review of the first two episodes.
So enjoy my thoughts on these episodes as I talk about the overall feel, the production design, as well as some high-level thoughts on the cast and characters.
Just like last year, I am not describing any scenes and only reference material we've seen in the trailers and promo footage, so you can go into these episodes unspoiled!

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.
