We discuss the season finale of The Rings of Power: Season 2 and look back on the season as a whole.

A massive battle for the fate of Eregion is at the heart of this episode, as is the relationship between Sauron and Celebrimbor.

Where is that big bad Sauron guy hiding out now? Hey, where is he?

The rings for the men are nearly here, leaving us with just THE ONE RING to be forged.

We meet Tom Bombadil in the latest episode, a character we quickly attach ourselves to.

We discuss the three-episode premiere of The Rings of Power Season 2 and catch up on where our key characters were left from last season.
