37 - In the House of Tom Bombadil (feat. C.R. Wiley)
In this episode, I'm joined by C.R. Wiley to discuss his book, In the House of Tom Bombadil. While we primarily focused on Bombadil as he appears in The Lord of the Rings, this connects to our current series on The Tales from the Perilous Realm, which includes the poetic "Adventures of Tom Bombadil." We'll get to these specific tales another time, but I found this to be a worthwhile, more general conversation about this fascinating character.Support my work and gain access to exclusive, early, and ad-free content at patreon.com/mythicmind.Keep up with me on twitter @andrewnsnyderBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mythic-mind--5808321/support.

36 - On Fairy-Stories (feat. John Carswell)
In this episode, I am joined by John Carswell of the Tolkien Road to discuss Tolkien's essay, "On Fairy-Stories," which is a foundational read for understanding Tolkien's literary philosophy, and particularly his philosophy of fantasy. I often say that I was radicalized by "On Fairy-Stories," so I hope that this conversation is a companion to your own reading!
