In today's Hobbit Day episode, I discuss the nature of gift giving for Hobbits and make some comments and suggestions about the nature of gift exchange. Also mentioned in this episode are theologian John Milbank and essayist G.K. Chesterton

In this episode I rehearse Dr. Michael Ward's claims in his book, Planet Narnia, and contemplate what it could mean to read the Chronicles of Narnia in a new order.

In this episode, I revisit the topic of food and creation but try to go even deeper by looking at time. I also talk a little about sophiology, old feast days, and Wendell Berry.

In this episode I go a little deeper into who I am and what I hope for this podcast. Then I go over a second blog post of mine looking at the Green Man and the forest god in Hellboy II.

In this inaugural episode, I talk a little about why I'm starting a podcast and read a post from my blog, Letters from the Edge of Elfland, where I discuss that much seen video of a stag wandering around a church in France.
