Elves, Rings & Nerdy Things Podcast artwork

Hosted by Sam Marvin and Sean Briggs, this podcast covers the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, adaptations of Tolkien's works, and all things nerdy. When not talking about Tolkien, we talk about D&D, Renaissance Faires, cartoons, video games, and more! We started with the following mission: Tolkien's Legendarium and all works within the genre should be accessible by everyone. We approach the material from the seats of an average fan.
