We are once again squeaking into a liturgical season. Before (or as) we switch from white (to red) to green, join me as I ramble though The Return of the King, which I think you'll find is pretty liturgically appropriate.

Join me on this low-energy ramble though The Two Towers.
It is very late and I am very tired. I did my best.

German listeners: I know you're from Frankfurt. I don't know why I said Munich. It was late and I still love you. Please don't leave me.

Join me as a I ramble through The Fellowship of the Ring.  I don't have much to say about that, as I said quite a bit in the episode.

I may have missed the entire (quite long) Christmas season, but I squeaking in there with Ordinary Time. Join me as a muddle through The Children of Hurin. It's not my finest work, but you'll at least get a chance to laugh at me.

Join me sometime in Lent for wherever I happen to be in The Lord of the Rings!

Well, I'm (there and) back (again).

In my ongoing endeavor to not leave this alone for months on end, I've embarked on what I'm calling "my liturgical year of Tolkien." It's Advent, and I'm starting with the Hobbit because reasons.

This episode consists primarily of me telling you about all the weirdest bits from the 1977 cartoon. Enjoy.

A sort of review of the new adaptation of Persuasion on Netflix starring Dakota Johnson. You may or may not like it. The movie, not the episode. This episode is great and you will love it.

I got to read Anthony Doerr's new novel Cloud Cuckoo Land before it comes out this Tuesday, so I reviewed it for you all. TL;DR version: it's good, you should read it.

I read Ender's Game over Labor Day Weekend and then I decided to revisit the movie. It's a bit of a slippery fish when it comes to adapting this particular IP and maybe it should just be left alone. Beware: spoilers abound.

Don't let FOMO (do people still say that?) lead to resentment.
Plus I tease some upcoming content. Watch this space! (Do people still say that?)
