After years away doing errantry, Aragorn returns to Rivendell, looking like an Elf-lord. After a week away doing a few errands, Alan returns to the Common Room, looking much the same. Join The Man of the West and The Shieldmaiden of Rohan for the second of three episodes on The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen from Appendix A of The Lord Of the Rings. Aragorn just couldn’t stand to be kept away, Arwen renounces the Twilight, and Elrond sets the highest of bars. Alan and Sara discuss the importance of choice, renounce Twilight too, and advise you to get betrothed for the job you want, not the job you have. Also, Alan feels a pressing need to change his nickname.

Hi Alan, The page says it’s Episode 368 – If You Leave Me Now, but the player (below) is stuck on Episode 367. Is there a way you can fix this to get them in alignment? Thanks!
Thanks for letting us know, Larry – I’ll have my team look into this, and we should have it fixed shortly. In the meantime, you can have a listen on any of the usual other places!
