503: Boring Mirror

503: Boring Mirror

My speech to text likes to write Boring Mirror when I say Boromir, so I'm going with it. Plus I think that's a pretty accurate description of his character. That said, I have two amazing calls defending the honor of the crown prince of Gondor! One is from our friend, Johnny, and the other is from our buddy, Rob! Come, hear them sing the praises of Boromir the Fallen!
