    REVISITED » In the House of Tom Bombadil with CR Wiley
    Sep 20 2024
    Who is Tom Bombadil? This is a topic we’ve covered several times on the Tolkien Road, but it’s an undying enigma for Lord of the Rings fans, and we’re always hungry for new insights into the mysterious nature of The Old Forest’s Master.

    With the inclusion of Tom Bombadil in Season 2 of The Rings of Power, we're in a Tommy kind of mood, and will be revisiting a few episodes we've done on the engimatic fellow over the next week or so.

    Today, it's an interview from back in 2022 with CR Wiley, author of the book In the House of Tom Bombadil.

    Sep 16 2024
    Welcome to Episode 20 of DO NOT BE HASTY - I'm calling this one "The Power of Pity". (This is episode 390 of The Tolkien Road podcast).
    "Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends." - Gandalf, concerning Gollum, to Frodo
    In this episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we continue through The Shadow of the Past, as Gandalf explains how Bilbo’s pity for Gollum may in fact “Rule the fate of many.”
    SECTION START: A heavy silence fell in the room.
    SECTION END: ‘Try!’ said Gandalf. ‘Try now!’

As a Tolkien Purist, LOVE this

I LOVE it , this is clearly a True correction for Tolkien Purists to correct the awful Lore Butchering of TROP.
