Twin Terrors Macabre Manor of Mead Metal and Mayhem episodes

  • Episode 058 -- On Bombadil and Barrow Wights
    Another special for Hobbit Day (which is in two days from this episode posting)!  Here we give our own special treatment to those much talked about people and things, Tom Bombadil and the Barrow Downs' Barrow Wights, as well as Goldberry and the Old Forest.  What we liked, who they are, why it's okay that they weren't in the movies, and much more.  Grab a pint and a pipe and enjoy!  
    Image:  we were going to sneak in an awesome Barrow Downs image, but we couldn't get the right (we don't want to steal copyright if we can help it).  We've also used pretty much all our book cover images of Tom.  So here's a picture of James' Hobbit Day celebrations from 2018.

  • Episode 053 -- Crossroads Folklore and Spookiness (part 1)

    Join the Terrors as they head up to the crossroads, so they can sell their souls to the devil (spoilers: he didn't want them).  We'll head across Europe this time, as  the first of two parts on the Crossroads, before we make it a trilogy with an episode on Robert Johnson sometime in the future.

    Also, here's the full article of James': https://owlcation.com/humanities/The-Crossroads-a-liminal-setting-for-occult-and-supernatural-activities

  • Episode 051 -- Light Brigade (Iron Maiden) the beer and veterans it helps

    Join the Terrors as they discuss the Iron Maiden/Robinson ale Light Brigade.  We've already discussed the song and the history, so here we get into the reason for this beer:  Help for Heroes, a British charity that helps vets.  We also touch on similar American and Canadian charities.

  • Episode 50 -- The Third Place

    Welcome back to the Manor! For our 50th episode, we spend just a brief bit of time talking about what makes Third Places so special and what we look for in a Third Place.  What's a Third Place you ask?  It's that special place of social gathering outside of home and work.  Like a pub you say?  Yes.  Like a pub!  Enjoy and thank you for putting up with us for 50 episodes!  Here's to the next 50.  Slainte!  Wassail! Twoje Zdrowie!  Skal! Cheers!  Prost!  And so on!

    Join the terrors as they embark on a journey to determine at what point do changes in the line up of a band cause it to become something else.  Many examples are given and none taken.

    (Pictured: the Terrors, who are the only ones that matter from all the band they were in.)
