Good job.
Prof. Olsen is steeped in the lore of Tolkien's works and has a good knowledge and recall of these facts. There is a lot of information for people interested in the Hobbit, Lord of the Rings and Silmarilion but I would offer a word or two of caution. Firstly, there are some decidedly 'off' pronunciations used by the good prof. (Smorg?). Secondly, for those who have read Tolkien's works a few times, there are some points where critical information is omitted (Uruloki?). Finally, there is far too much mention of religion, in every episode, even going so far as to use rhetoric.

A great series of recordings. I fixed the ordering problem by going to the website and adding the podcast's RSS feed to iTunes (Advanced -> Subscribe to Podcast) instead of adding it through iTunes U. This gets you everything in order.

I really wanted to listen to the lecture but Corey was taking way to fast for me. Maybe it is that we talk slower in the Midwest? I found it too distracting and deleted the lecture.
