0387 » Lord of the Rings Bk1.Ch02.Pt07 » The Shadow of the Past part 7 » The Sad Story of Gollum

Monday, August 26, 2024 • Duration 38:54

Welcome to Episode 18 of DO NOT BE HASTY - I'm calling this one "The Sad Story of Gollum".
"'You ought to begin to understand, Frodo, after all you have heard," said Gandalf. 'He hated it and loved it, as he hated and loved himself. He could not get rid of it. He had no will left in the matter.'"
In this episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we continue through The Shadow of the Past, as Gandalf explains to Frodo the sad story of Gollum: how the Ring used him and then threw him away.
SECTION START: “Gollum!” cried Frodo. “Gollum? Do you mean that this is the very Gollum-creature that Bilbo met?”
SECTION END: “...but I am not guessing now. I have seen him.”

In this episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we continue through The Shadow of the Past, as Gandalf reveals to Frodo all that he has learned of his Ring in the past 17 years.

Monday, July 4, 2022 • Duration 01:37:40

Join us for an in-depth discussion as we explore "Of Beren and Lúthien", the 19th chapter of JRR Tolkien's The Silmarillion. Learn about the story Tolkien called "the seed of Middle-earth", in which a forefather of the Men of the West sets out to obtain one of the Silmarils from the Iron Crown of Morgoth!

EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS » Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien, John R, Jacob Lockham, John H, Scotchy Bobo

Chapter 19 is the story of Beren and Lúthien, aka The Tale of Tinúviel, aka The Lay of Leíthian, aka one of the Great Tales of the First Age and the Seed of Middle-earth. Simply put, this is one of Tolkien’s greatest stories, a story that in many ways informs the entirety of the Middle-earth legendarium.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK » "‘I will tell you the tale of Tinúviel,’ said Strider, ‘in brief – for it is a long tale of which the end is not known; and there are none now, except Elrond, that remember it aright as it was told of old. It is a fair tale, though it is sad, as are all the tales of Middle-earth, and yet it may lift up your hearts.’" - Lord of the Rings, Book 1, Chapter 11
