001 - A Long-Expected Party

Fool of a Took Podcast

Gentle (and not so gentle) hobbits, Gandalf's a jerk, and a good old fashioned Ham Sam-which. This week we discuss book 1, chapter 1 - "A long-Expected Party" - from The Fellowship of the Ring.
Today's "Food For Thought": A Toast to Bilbo's Birthday Bash
Drink of choice (sweet wine and mead are good options)
Honey
Pop Rocks
-Line the rim of your goblet with honey. Pour the pop rocks into a plate and press the rim of the goblet into it. Fill the glass with your drink and enjoy the fireworks!

Hi! Welcome to Fool of a Took Podcast, a show about friends reading the Lord of the Rings together. Here's the catch - 2 of the 4 hosts have never read the books before! Pat and Rj help their spouses Chris and Laura read the Lord of the Rings for the first time in a weekly podcast that discusses each chapter along the way.
With chapter snacks, fresh grog, and plenty of tongue wagging, you can be sure we’ll all be “cracked” by the end.
