After a long break, we're back with Aragorn Part 4! We cover the war of the ring and the greatest fictional man's demise after a long life.
We continue our Aragorn series this week. We cover his early life and meeting Arwen.
Some deep details on who 'the wise' are, some of the areas in Gondor are fleshed out, and a good sprinkling of philology as always.

Really this is such a wonderful listen. It reflects the lore in the Silmarillion accurately and in a relaxed way. The conversation between the couple are hilarious and sweet, and after reading the Silmarillion I completely loved going through all the episodes. Definitely worthwhile and easy to absorb and follow - especially if you’re interested but want something a bit lighter than the books, or want a little refresher. 10/10 definitely recommend

Chris and Becca make it easy to get into Middle Earth lore. I,like Becca, have trouble with names so it’s nice to get an in depth walk through and not have to be too pressed about names cuz I know Chris and Becca will keep me straight haha! Very good listen - highly recommend.
