Watch.Read.Listen.

This special episode is the first of Duane's new project, Catch the Wizard. Catch the Wizard is all about finding the magic in the primary and secondary worlds. Taking inspiration from the work and thought of J.R.R. Tolkien, Catch the Wizard seeks to explore how creators make worlds that have a very real impact on readers, viewers, and listeners through recovery, escape, and consolation. You can check out Catch the Wizard at the links below.
