And it's a new episode of #ByTheBywater up on #MegaphonicFm with one of the oddest efforts that #Tolkien did, a translation of the Middle English poem "Sir Orfeo," which he left absolutely no notes or details on -- nobody's even sure when he translated it. As ever @schwindter and #JaredPechacek and I gave it a go; art by Jared as ever. https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/51

Meantime the latest #ByTheBywater episode is live on #MegaphonicFm! This was our 50th episode that we celebrated the other week with a special live recording in Portland and what a treat it was. Listen to @schwindter and #JaredPechacek and I have some thoughts on Peter Jackson's adaptation of #TheHobbit -- somewhat tart ones. Illustration by friend of the network #GabrielListon! #Tolkien https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/50

Phew! So this past Saturday was a GREAT time in Portland with the #MegaphonicFm live podcast evening held at Passages Bookshop. We all had a heck of a time -- our latest #ByTheBywater episode from the evening will be out a week from today! Big thanks to folks on here like @finchfrii and @dougo and more who were all able to make it! #Tolkien

Quick reminder for anyone on here following #ByTheBywater or who is a #Tolkien fan in general that the podcast will be recording its next episode live in Portland, Oregon two weeks from today. Join us if you can! https://www.megaphonic.fm/live-2023
And the latest episode of #ByTheBywater is live on #MegaphonicFm -- and this time we're looking at one of the worst adaptations of #Tolkien ever, the #RankinBass version of _The Return of the King_, which even Rankin admitted in later years wasn't good. Listen to @schwindter and #JaredPechacek and I despair accordingly. Art as always by Jared, who said: "I put exactly as much effort into my drawing as they did into their screenplay." https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/49

And relatedly, our podcast network overlord Chris has created a new episode guide for #ByTheBywater! Unsure which episode addressed what topic? Here's where to start! https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/episodes
The latest episode of #ByTheBywater is live -- this time around @schwindter and Jared and I talked about #Gollum, truly one of the most crucial characters created by #Tolkien. Illustration by Jared as always! https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/47

Meantime those of us at #ByTheBywater would like to let you know -- we're back for the new year! Our 46th episode, this time on #Tolkien and two of his short non-Middle-earth works for children -- the goofy #MrBliss and the satirically silly -- and surprisingly emotional -- #Roverandom. Art from Jared, and listen in to he and I and @schwindter here: https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/46

I'd just like to call attention to the invitation by @wordgarbler here -- he runs the podcast network #MegaphonicFm, home of #ByTheBywater, and per his note, he's looking for guests! https://mastodon.world/@wordgarbler/109667322197351593
On a happier note: the latest episode of #BytheBywater is now up at #MegaphonicFM -- listen to @schwindter, Jared and myself talk about Peter Jackson's _The Two Towers_ on its 20th anniversary. (Yes, you're that old, sorry.) #Tolkien https://www.megaphonic.fm/bythebywater/45

Full times on my end given #BytheBywater podcast prep and the like, but two quick notes:
1) #GlassOnion was a delight of course; absolutely nodded to its #LastofSheila and #EvilUnderTheSun lineage and more, and the accidental timing of its release is deeply fortuitous.
2) Latest Weekly Music Notes went up on Friday and do give a read and a listen. https://www.patreon.com/posts/some-weekly-57-75038671
