Having finished Book 5, we’ve made it to another Recap Episode, where anything can happen!

Among other matters, we discuss the following topics, either for the first time or otherwise expanding on previous conversations:

• The nature of good stewardship: a comparison of Denethor vs. Gandalf;
• The “faithfulness” of the Woses, and the implied treatment of them as less than;
• Éowyn as a divinely protected warrior, perhaps the Achilles of LOTR;
• The “Last Debate” and the questionable decision to march towards Mordor.
