The Last Alliance - A Rings of Power Podcast

Join the Last Alliance as we finish the season 2 recap. In this episode we will discuss the plots, characters, and events in Eregion, and Pelargir.

Stay tuned for the anticipated "Brimby Award Show"

Join the Last Alliance for part 1 of the season recap. In the part 1 we discuss the plots, characters, and events in Khazadum, Numenor, and Rhun.

After 16 episodes, Meteor Man is no longer a Stranger! We bid farewell to more than one “father” and get the Brimby send-off we were hoping for!

The rings continue to trade hands and Galadriel’s duel with Sauron does not disappoint, but what chance do the free peoples of Middle Earth stand against such evil? And did we get our first reference to “the One Ring to rule them all”?

Even with an incredible season now behind us, we look forward with eager anticipation for what’s in store “Now let the song begin!”

In our final sit-down before the finale, we revisit Elrond in the mud, Adar’s glowing face, the kiss heard across Middle-Earth, and the trouble in Khazad-Dum. Also, is there more to Narvi than meets the eye?

Which characters are doomed to die in the finale? Will the Stranger learn his name? Will Gluk get his revenge? And what will be the last shot of the season?

“Fight with me,so all the world can see that dwarven loyalty is a force stronger than any sorcery, more powerful than any army, deeper than the bones of the earth!

Will you fight with our friends?!”

Doomed to die as he may be, Brimby sure does shine in the penultimate episode of Season 2. The Rings of Power are complete but are quickly changing hands as the veil over Sauron's disguise is finally pulled back.

Elrond and Galadriel play "Escape Artists", but was their act more than just good tactics? And in the face of epic and utter defeat, where do our heroes go from here?

Send us your predictions for the final shot of next week's finale to be read and discussed in our second breakfast recap!

“Ye rings of men….what pride is woven in your inmost self?” Could there be a better description of the future WEARERS of The Nine?

Will we see redemption arcs for the likes of Earien, Arondir, or a certain “dark” character?

And exactly what choice will the Stranger have to make to earn his staff, name, color, and a new wardrobe?

“Your friend, or your destiny.”

The chess pieces are set for the siege of Eregion, the Stranger’s last trial from The Secret Fire, a civil war in Numenor, and the completion of Brimby’s rings of power. Is Annatar manipulating reality, or just Brimby’s mind? And what’s a Durin to do as he watches his father dig deeper into the allure of his ring?

This week's Second Breakfast menu features an extra heaping of Annatar fueling conspiracy among the elven smiths, with sides of Greed in Numenor and Khazad-Dum. We respond to your questions and comments and evaluate the trending theory of a budding "Mirdan-nnatar" relationship.

The pace is picking up as Durin, blinded by greed, has taken the dwarven rings of power without question. How do these rings compare with the elven rings and Annatar’s plans for the rings for men?

Speaking of future ring-wraiths, Kemen and Earien strengthen their case for “most likely to be voted by the audience to endure an eternity of suffering and enslavement to Sauron”. Elendil, meanwhile, shows his quality, but to the expense of a friend’s life, and Celebrimbor is starting to put the pieces together all too late.

“We’ve had one, yes. But what about Second Breakfast?”

The Last Alliance is here to bring you some mid-week Rings of Power reflections: Is Tom Bombadil afraid? Are there fans that actually enjoy watching Arondir? What sacrifices will Elrond and Galadriel have to make?
