In this week's episode, we're talking about something that's big and also true---from a certain point of view. We're kicking off an intermittent series called Big If True in Literature and Culture with a discussion of ents, giant tree-people in J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series. We learn about what they are, what they do, and why they're so cool.
