Join us all in the Common Room here at The Prancing Pony Podcast as The Man of the West and The Shieldmaiden of Rohan answer listener questions again in our 32nd Questions After Nightfall! Sara welcomes you all to her Galadriel TED Talk, and we discuss the deep matters of loss in Tolkien and learning life lessons in the legendarium. But it’s not all serious: members of the Fellowship in a rock band, Aulë’s mistakes with Dwarven reproduction, and a strutting Glorfindel lighten the mood. Also, Sara admits she’s not funny — when will Alan do the same?
