S2 E3: Cult of Ilúvatar

  • Summary

  • One airbrushed wizard van short of a new religion. Mike Jones is back once again. Can we build a bewildering manifesto-inscribed labyrinth and spiritual movement around J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Silmarillion? What cult LARPing lessons can we learn from Kurt Anderson’s Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire? Is America the BoJack Horseman of countries? All this plus a Denny’s kids’ menu and a pack of crayons.

    Yeah, it’s one of the more pop culture-heavy episodes.

    Intro music by Martin H Emes and “Rah” by Uncle Milk (CC BY 4.0). Closing track is “Soft Rain” by Glass Boy (CC BY-ND 3.0).
