Chapter 9 - At the Sign of the Prancing Pony

Chapter 9 - At the Sign of the Prancing Pony

The Hobbits have escaped the Barrows, and finally made it to Bree - and here, Frodo will face a whole new kind of terror: public speaking. There's a sexy stranger in the corner, and a Hob, Nob or Bob outside waiting to meet your every need - that's right folks, we're at the Prancing Pony Inn. Join us this week as we discuss this hilarious chapter - we'll be asking all the critical questions, like 'why can't Frodo keep it cool for once,' and 'why, oh why, are all dwarves Scottish?' In celebration of this brilliant chapter, we've switched things up, so it's Hannah in the hot seat this week - will her 30 seconds encompass more than Miles' usual first-page-of-the-chapter recap? And stay tuned at the end, because Miles is coming in hot with the musical element this time.

Chapter 8 - Fog On The Barrow-Downs

Snuggle up friends - this is the creepiest chapter yet. Captain Frodo and Company leave Tom and Goldberry, hoping to catch up with Gandalf in Bree. But things take a turn for the worse when they oversleep after a picnic lunch - we're talking ancient-curse, walking-dead, disembodied-hand kinda worse. Yeesh! This is a super fun and scary chapter, and we dive into all the horrible details - finding out what exactly IS a wight, and where did these bad boys come from anway? Miles will investigate the difference between 30 seconds and 6 minutes, and Hannah will channel Andy Serkis with everything she's got, bringing you her spookiest song yet.

Chapter 7 - In The House Of Tom Bombadil

The boys are snuggling up in a cosy house out of the rain this week, hanging with their new best pals Tom and Goldberry. Tom's got some great yarns to spin, and it's Goldberry's washing day, so it's time to eat, chat, sing and rest - but be careful, or those nightly noises might get you. We're asking all the tough questions this week, like who the heck is this funny old fellow Tom anyway, and did Goldberry mean "HE is", or "he IS"? As always, we round off the episode with a quiz, a rather exceptional performance in the 30 second deep dive challenge, and a song - inspired in this episode by the spell Tom gives the Hobbits to use in case of trouble.

Chapter 6 - The Old Forest

The Hobbits head into the Old Forest, and it turns out to be just as bad as Fatty Bolger suspected. With ominous vibes, ever-changing paths, and a legitimately murderous Willow, the Old Forest might just be the end of the journey... but then along comes Tom Bombadil. Who is this capering madman? And what do his nonsense songs have to do with the creation of the world? In this episode, we're asking all the important questions, like 'can you think of one single thing to say about bonfires?' And 'where does all the queerness in the Old Forest come from?' Join us as we go on a deep delve into the history of songs in Arda, chat through the chapter, and quiz each other. The episode ends (as always) with an original song, this week inspired by Frodo's song of encouragement as the party struggles against the Forest's dark mood.

Chapter 5 - A Conspiracy Unmasked

The Hobbits make it to Buckland just in time, and recover from their frights with a trio of baths and a mountain of mushrooms. Frodo needs to tell his friends the awful truth... but what secrets of their own will be uncovered? Can Frodo trust anyone at all?? Join us again as we delve deeper into the story, chatting thrugh our favourite moments, and pausing (as usual) for quiz questions, 30-second challenges and songs. Will Miles manage to step out of the detail and summarise the chapter in 30 seconds? And what powerful enemy will Hannah make with her own comments under time pressure this week? As always we have an original song inspired by the text as well - stick around to the end to hear Hannah's rendition of the Hobbit's journey song!
