Not At Home [The Hobbit, Ch.13] - a podcast by Cameron Fucile

Discussion of The Hobbit, Chapter Thirteen

Join Maggie and Cam as they triumphantly return to the books to talk about magic and ghosts. This episode explores the unnerving similarities between the Ring and the newly introduced Arkenstone. We continue our discussion on the power of sight in Middle-earth amid a chapter blanketed in darkness. Cam offers three working theories about the Ring’s power and influence as a magical object, and Maggie meditates on the concept of “home” in this story.

During our Second Breakfast, we respond to one critic’s strangely abstract praise of The Hobbit as being a “flawless masterpiece”. Maggie suggests that Jude Law should play young Gandalf in the Amazon show.
