  • Sisters of the Shire S2 E29- The Tales of the Children of Hurin
    Nov 19 2024

    Join Abi and Ashley this week for an exciting bonus episode of The Sisters of the Shire Podcast as we dive into Episode 2 of Amazon's 'The Rings of Power' Season 2!

    Just how far will Halbrand (or should we say, Sauron?) go to worm his way back into Eregion? Is his heartfelt act worthy of a rom-com, complete with dramatic rainstorms, perfectly timed compliments, and just a sprinkle of intrigue?

    Also, did anyone else know you could shave with a seashell? And finally, what in the twister is on the horizon for Poppy and Nori?


    Tune in for laughter, speculation, and all things Tolkien!

  • Sisters of the Shire S2 E28- The Tales of the Children of Hurin
    Nov 12 2024

    Get ready to join us in the next chapter of Turin’s saga on *The Sisters of the Shire Podcast*! Last time, we took a deep dive into Turin’s perspective and that epic court session where he narrowly avoided punishment. This week, we flip the script to Beleg, Turin's steadfast friend, who sets out on an adventurous (and endlessly frustrating) quest to bring Turin some much-needed good news. Beleg isn't the only one seeking Turin, but he's the only one determined enough to brave every challenge, from dodging orc scouts to dodging Turin’s own rowdy crew of outlaws. Will he finally reach his friend, or is Turin too far gone down a road that even Beleg can’t follow? Expect cunning orcs, rogue outlaws, and that unbeatable friendship that’s keeping Beleg in the game—even when his journey feels a bit like running after a shadow.

  • Sisters of the Shire S2 E27- The Tales of the Children of Hurin
    Nov 5 2024

    Join us as we dive into our new section, “Túrin Among the Outlaws.” This is Túrin’s story like you’ve never heard it before! The Unfinished Tales gives us a much deeper (and wilder) look at his days with a band of outlaws than The Silmarillion ever does. So, why did Túrin end up in the company of these “Wolf-men”? How did he rise to become their captain? The Silmarillion only spares a couple of sentences for this episode in his life, but we’re here to unpack every gritty detail. From Túrin’s surprisingly spot-on rock-throwing skills to the not-so-accidental “accidents” along the way, we’ll take you through all the unexpected twists and turns of Túrin’s journey among the outlaws!
