May 10, 2024 Tolkien Letter 1
Once upon a time, I gifted $10+/month members subscriptions to my Substack on Tolkien's letters, but that process became overly tedious. However, I am now bringing it back - in a way. I am starting to record my reading of these articles and posting them to the members' podcast feed. The first episode is now available to everyone, but, moving forward, this series will be exclusive to $10+/month members.

In addition to this series, membership will provide you with ad-free episodes of the Mythic Mind Legacy and Fellowship podcasts delivered into a single feed.

May 08, 2024 52 - Fellowship Chat with Elisabeth Dawson
For the first recorded Fellowship chat, Elisabeth Dawson and I talked about philosophy, Boethius, the arts, and more. We did not have a clear agenda for this conversation, but I believe it moved in some very worthwhile directions. Most future Fellowship chats will be on the Mythic Mind Fellowship podcast, so be sure to subscribe to that one as well!
