We make our way through the first 1/2 of Chapter 2, Roast Mutton… First, though, we reveal a Hobbit fact that makes one big connection between The Hobbit and The Silmarillion!


Bilibo finally makes his way out the door–but was it his decision or did Gandalf force him out?  And who is this “king” that’s mentioned?


In our extended episode (available for our members) we talk about:


* How many editors were there for The Red Book of Westmarch?

* Thorin’s dignity in Peter Jacksons films.
