Join me as I relate these myths as well as family encounters with these ancient beings. A big thank you t...

Well, it does fit with my c...

I delve into my first impressions from reading 'The Silmarillion' many years ago, some of my favorite stories, and how to do a proper mini-series. Enjoy!

I really did make a screenplay - satirical and completely absurd in nature - from one of the greatest films ever put to screen and based on one of the most beloved and masterful literary works: The Lord of the Rings. . . specifically, the Return of the King. This should be a good time..

I typically do not like filler episodes, however, I felt compelled to delve into random topics tonight and put them into a podcast episode. Thank you for listening! The episode thumbnail is to provide no inkling into what this episode's content is about; it simply is (was) a delicious cup cake.

The works of J.R.R. Tolkien are phenomenal - they are the most beloved series I have ever read and own. This episode I will deliver a singular criticism and I hope not to invoke the wrath of Eru Iluvatar...

I did it, I flipped them burgers and did it well. Fast Food was (and still is) an easy way for teenagers and young adults to learn customer service, patience, responsibility and the satisfaction of earning money. This was a 4+ year experience of which I will share my take on Fast Food employment - hopefully some humor can come from this as well. We weren't breaking rocks, obviously. We just had to...

In a bygone era, this world had an army of dedicated youngsters who - rain or shine - delivered paper-based reading material, otherwise known as 'Newspapers.' I had the privilege to be called a 'Paper Boy' while carrying the signature over-sized Tote Bag we proud few displayed with great pleasure. Roll up some papers and prepare for paper cuts as I divulge the secrets of Paper Boys and how this lo...

My upbringing involved A LOT of paranormal tales from my family history. My ancestry is dotted with many a tale relating to hauntings, poltergeists, and sightings of ghostly specters. With these stories being greatly incorporated into my bedtime, I grew to have a blend of fear, curiosity, and excitement to anything relating to the invisible world surrounding us. Whether you are a believer in the u...

I discovered the works of the great J.R.R. Tolkien during my teenage years. Never before had I read such a unique and masterful way of storytelling. The works of Tolkien opened my eyes to other fantasy (and science fiction) books/series of which public education refrained from acknowledging. I couldn't stand the standard reading lists administered by my schools; to me, they were incredibly unrelat...
