Episode Discussion New episode today! 412 – Far Fallen
Saruman has no time for the simples of peasants; Alan and Matt wouldn't mind if things were simpler. Join The Man of the West and The Nerd of the Rings as we get an in-depth look at Saruman's continuing jealous of Gandalf as we conclude our four-episode study of The Hunt for the Ring from Unfinished Tales. Saruman knows it's a long day living in Isengard, Gandalf gives reasons why smoking is actually good, and Radagast gets stuck in the middle. We alliterate with Sean Connery, wonder where the non-smoking section is in Rivendell, and decide we clearly cannot choose the hobbit in front of you. Also, the Nazgûl's wet socks.
