Draw the curtains and light the fire, because we have some serious stuff to discuss this week - Frodo learns that the ring Bilbo left him has a pretty important history, and Sam learns just how curiosity killed the cat.
This week, we have our usual book club discussion and quiz, but will Miles be able to identify and impersonate all the characters from the chapter? And Hannah gives us her first "deep delve" of the series - who is this mysterious hottie Annatar, and why is he so good at ringcraft?
Make sure you listen to the end, because we have another original song inspired by the text, featuring some very spooky chanting in the black speech!

Hello and welcome to the Hobbiton Huddle, the brand new Lord of the Rings bookclub that's got all the Tooks, Grubbs, Chubbs and Brandybucks in Hobbiton talking.
It's party time in Hobbiton, and our pal Bilbo has a few tricks up his sleeve - this week we're gathering at the Ivy Bush for a good gossip sesh, and we'll be covering important questions like do Hobbits know what express trains are, and WHO is Daddy Twofoot?!
As usual, we'll round off our discussion with a quiz and a few reflection questions - but what rank will Hannah attain when it's her turn to be put on the spot? And how did we get on with our challenges from last week?
Make sure you listen to the end, because we have our very first of Tolkien's poem set to original music - of course, it had to be the classic The Road Goes Ever On And On.

Hello and welcome to the Hobbiton Huddle, the brand new Lord of the Rings bookclub that's got all the Tooks, Grubbs, Chubbs and Brandybucks in Hobbiton talking. It's our pilot episode, and we're getting stuck into the Prologue of the Fellowship of the Ring.
This week, we share a bit about our own history with Lord of the Rings, before diving into the incredible detail of the Prologue, with a focus on all things Hobbit. How did Tolkien get away with adding so much detail before the adventure even begins, and what was he thinking including so many spoilers??
We round off our discussion with a quiz and a few reflection questions - but what rank will Miles attain with his quiz performance? And what challenges will this week's reading inspire?
