Fool of a Took Podcast

Fool of a Took is a weekly Lord of the Rings read-through podcast. Bookworms Pat (the Tolkien fanatic and annual re-reader) and Robbie Jean (read it 20 years ago) lead their spouses Chris and Laura (the “fools” who have never read the books) on this journey for the first time as they read a chapter each week and discuss it together.

 If you haven't read the book before and are a bit nervous to start, this is the podcast for you! At its core, FOAT is a podcast designed to remove the intimidation many people have with committing to reading The Lord of the Rings. FOAT is about allowing those who have never read the books, as well as seasoned readers and avid fans of LOTR, to enjoy this journey together.  

With foods and snacks inspired by the books, mead and wine to be drunk, and hot mics recording everything along the way, the questions still linger in the shadows: Will Pat and Robbie Jean help Chris and Laura finally reach Mordor? Will Chris remember anything from the previous chapter? Is there a LOTR fanatic still to be made? Find out only on Fool of a Took.
