The gang travels to Ireland for New Years, the Hobbits aren't the only ones to freeze to death, and Chris buys a bootleg Tin Whistle. This week we discuss book 2, chapter 3, "The Ring Goes South", from The Fellowship of the Ring.
Special thanks to the amazing staff at Montenotte Hotel in County Cork for letting us record a podcast in your fine establishment.
Today's "Food For Thought": The One Ring Toss
There is no recipe for this episode. Grab a bottle with a narrow neck (bonus points if it's Mead) and some ring-shaped pretzels. Make an ENORMOUS mess while attempting to toss the pretzels around the bottle. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
