Paul and Tori watch the first installment of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey! Tori gleefully is introduced to dwarf culture, confusedly introduced to Radagast and darling Sebastian, and Paul reminds everyone that Thorin is indeed, Daddy.

S2 E10: From Hobbit to Hero (The Hobbit Finale!)
We've reached the final chapters of The Hobbit! In which, Tori thinks the danger is over with the death of Smaug behind us, but Thorin and Co (and Tori!) soon learn from Middle Earth's version of Twitter, Roäc, that it's just begun. We discuss the Battle of Five Armies, shed a tear or two, and are blessed with a couple songs sung by our dear Paul.

S2 E9: Live Twitch Charity Stream!
On May 9th we hosted a Charity Stream over on our Twitch Sillymarillion to raise funds for reproductive rights and various abortion-rights groups in high-stakes US states. Together with you all, we did closet cosplays, Paul gave out a handful of voice impressions, did the splits, shaved his facial hair, Tori spilled wine on her partner's keyboard, got a little tipsy, together discussed a couple chapters in between all this chaos, and raised an incredible $1,059.21!!

S2 E8: Jimmy Ryan Reynolds Tolkien
They did it! They reached the Lonely Mountain!! Bilbo meets Smaug the big bad dragon and realizes there are many holes in their not-thought-out plan. Bilbo gets very clever when speaking with Smaug but jokes on him, Smaug is more clever. Who decides to have a riddle-off against a dragon anyway?!
