Happy Tolkien Week! This week we celebrate the publication of The Hobbit as well as Bilbo and Frodo's birthdays. Our hobbits continue their journey after a scary midnight run-in with Merry. However, they get lost in the Old Forest and trapped by a tree. They're saved by none other than Tom Bombadil, who we meet for the first time. Jonathan, Katie and Chase leave the Shire on this week's episode of Talking Tolkien. 

You can find more episodes on iTunes and Stitcher. Also, please check out our Patreon page.
