We’re back and looking at ALL the changes in Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings! This week we head over to Orthanc and the changes made to Gandalf’s visit to Saruman:
- Gandalf visiting Saruman isn’t just a flashback–and what about all those little changes made there?!
- Saruman and Gandalf throw down in a Wizard duel for the ages — Michael and Jonathan seriously DISAGREE on this one!

- What would wizarding power look like if Jackson hadn’t made it so physical.
- If Christopher Lee and Ian McKellen had switched roles, what would that have been like?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
