I absolutely love norse sagas and for somebody to do a podcast on them is amazing! I also love Tolkiens stories so this is an interesting match. Only gripe is the sometimes odd sound quality but that is something the auther was definately aware off and conscious about. The sound was improved...Read full review »

This is a fun and informative podcast of interest to those who love Tolkien, Old Norse myth and sagas, and mythology in general. Brent Landon is informative, but he also brings on guests that each have a particular insight into Tolkien and Norse mythology. He is also a good composer and his music...Read full review »

You gotta admire someone for doing this. For hardcore Tolkien students!

Recommended for the more serious "Tolkien scholars". Intriguing discussion of the sources Tolkien worked from. And the Northern music is a surprising bonus as well.

Tolkien & Old Norse fills a niche that needed some attention, namely that of the languages and stories that influenced Tolkien. It's informative and fun; I've really enjoyed the guests as well as the host's own musical interludes. I also like that despite the fact that Brent is not a...Read full review »
