In our second to last episode of the first season the fellas FINALLY get around to teaching you about the Silmarils! Arguably the single most important artifacts in the Legendarium, the story of the Silmarils is the story of Arda and of Middle Earth. Enjoy part one of our two part special on the most beautiful and troubling jewelry until the One Ring is made. Enjoy, nerds!
As we rapidly approach the end of our first season the boys talk the Big Bad of the second and third ages... the Dark Lord Sauron! He started as a mere maia, learning crafts from the Vala Aule and rose through the ranks to become a major dick. I mean really, who does this guy think he is? Anyway, here's our Sauron episode, enjoy!
Zerb and Sean get into the music inspired by Tolkien, be it Howard Shore's score for the Jackson trilogy, Led Zeppelin's "Misty Mountain Hop," or Rush's so-dorky-it's-kinda-hard-to-listen-to "Rivendell." If you're looking to make a playlist of Tolkien related music this episode is a must listen, just like all of our episodes. Enjoy, nerds!
The boys dive into the abyss that is all the confusing and entangled topic of Tolkien's elves. While the information might make your head spin (or nod, as the case may be), this episode gives you a crash course in the various groups of elves, their histories, AND all this in rap form. Yes, folks, our very own Sean Kelley raps the history of the elves. No, seriously, the only thing more ridiculous than the rap itself is that it's... really good and quite informative. Enjoy the dorkiest undertaking of Sean's life and prepare to take notes, this one's fun but a doozy.
It's time to demystify the most powerful artifact in Middle Earth! Or it would be, were our hosts more competent and less distracted fellows. How did it come to be? What's the One Ring's relationship to the other rings of power? And was Sauron a workaholic? Why didn't he spend more time with his gross, evil kids? All these questions and more will be answered (if only vaguely correctly) on this episode of the Lord of the Wrongs Podcast!

Mae govannen and welcome to the Lord of the Wrongs Podcast, (one of) the only Tolkien podcast(s) the professor himself would probably not approve of. Friends Dan Zerbe and Sean Kelley discuss the…
