“I can't figure out how to describe how incredible this podcast is. I think I've started this review at least four or five times trying to find a way to portray my enthusiasm for it. If you are looking for a podcast that will give a close, academic look at Tolkien's writings, this is the podcast for you. Corey Olsen does an amazing job taking a closer look at J.R.R. Tolkien's literary works with keen insight and full acceptance of Tolkien's Christian worldview. Olsen is not only a fan of Tolkien's works, but a consummate professor who analyzes and critiques all of Tolkien's writings (from the Silmarillion to Farmer Giles of Ham) in a way that I think Tolkien would approve of. This is not to say that Olsen forsakes the soup for the ox bones, but he examines the elements of the soup in order to greater appreciate Tolkien's brilliance.”
