The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

Never Mind the Music just, uh, wrapping up their season two and about to start into season three.

Rings of Power, Marilyn is getting set for, uh, her preseason coverage of season three of Rings of Power.

And of course, John and the f- guys from Radioactive Ramblers covering the Cosmere books, the Brandon Sanderson books.

So get all that in the Disco- or in the link, uh, including the Discord, 'cause that's where we're all chatting.

Yeah, we used to do two chapters at a time, and then I was like, that's a lot of material to cover.

And so we're one chapter now, week two, and we also just started Lord of the Rings episodes in preparation for The Rings of Power.

And so I love multiple fantasy worlds.

It'll always be a Harry Potter pod, but every once in a while, we'll branch out and cover other things too.

Oh, man.

Getting excited for the new season coming out in June and then the new Rings of Power season coming out in August.

I

could talk

the first one

... we did Rings of Power, season one.

Ooh.

I'm like, "I'm not doing Rings of Power season two.

You can't make me." Like, unless you tie me to this chair, I am not, I, I'm not reviewing another season of this show.

I, yeah.

Right.

Amazon has proven their willingness to absorb billion-dollar infrastructure costs with projects like the Rings of Power.

They have the capital, and they clearly have a deep, trusting, established relationship with Flanagan.

So let's synthesize the reality of this situation for you listening.

And it's the same kind of with Fallout, like when you did the Lord of the Rings podcast.

I think, did you get in just before the Rings of Power dropped? Was it around that

time? I launched about a year before the show came out, I think, if I'm recall.

It's been about four years now, yeah.

Yeah.

You, I think, did you get in just before the Rings of Power dropped?

Uh, yeah.

Was it around that time?

I'm, I'm curious about that.

We do have coming up in the not distant future, we have, uh, Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power coming back to Amazon, and their strategy this time is to do, uh, they're gonna do a bunch of episodes one week, and then a couple more, and then a couple more.

So the whole thing's gonna come out over three weeks, but I think it's eight episodes over three weeks, which is kind of a hybrid of that model.

Uh, and that's actually one of the better rated things on Amazon.
