The Lord of the Rings with Talia Lavin

A few Halfling hippies assemble an eclectic fellowship and go on the adventure of a lifetime. Dads and daddies abound. We talk Hobbits, fan fiction, thirsting for Viggo, and The Lord of the Rings with our pal Talia Lavin. You can find Talia's book Culture Warlords here (https://www.hachettebooks.com/titles/talia-lavin/culture-warlords/9780306846434/).

(https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7xzO4hWx8p7xShWgOchIO5?si=S2uufyjDTFWMfBiL1ZM9DQ) It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie. Why Are Dads (https://www.podpage.com/why-are-dads/) is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.
