Weekly episodes discuss different aspects of life on Earth, from plate tectonics to societal problems. Part crash course, part interviews with experts, this podcast will explain as many details of life as you could possibly need for your setting.
Today's episode discusses where Tolkien drew inspiration for the dwarves of Middle Earth, and who else used those sources as inspiration, but for more negative purposes. Due to the election cycle and Tyler's resulting lack of time, there is no interview this time around, so this technically counts as a bonus episode.
