Do not touch the water! and join Meg and Julia as they cover chapter 7 of book 2 of The Fellowship of the Rings. Aside from the actual chapter, topics include the Amazon TV series on LOTR, tree houses and our childhood letdowns, Aragorn's mysterious age, the importance of a good sleep (and our tears when we don't have one), Gandalf's bushy eyebrows, Julia's "silvery elf lady" from episode 0, the mistrust of people who use third-person to refer to themselves, elves vs politicians, tons of theories, numerous tests, Gimli's secret wife, Tolkien's obsession with excess amounts of body hair, and much more!

Julia also predicted who four of the LOTR ladies that you sent in are, and she's probably very wrong!
