Podcasts about Hobbit

In questa puntata di Pensiero Parallelo, raccontiamo una storia molto triste: quella della catastrofica involuzione intellettuale del neofascismo italiano, passato in pochi decenni dall'aristocratismo tradizionalista di Julius Evola alle panzane antiscientifiche di Giorgia Meloni, Matteo Salvini e relativi accoliti. Tentiamo di capire come si sia passati dalla teoria della tradizione e del soldato politico, dai campi Hobbit, da "Europa-Nazione-Rivoluzione" alle teorie complottare no-vax, no-green pass e no-euro. Non che si partisse da premesse particolarmente nobili, ma quello che vediamo oggi è davvero deprimente ed è giusto rendere conto del cammino di un movimento che credeva di "venire da lontano", e, invece, a giudicare dai risultati che vediamo tutti, stava solo perdendo tempo. Con Simone M. Sepe e Lucio Di Gaetano

“More Green, Less Noise” A sermon preached by Rev. Ginger E. Gaines-Cirelli with Foundry UMC, October 17, 2021, the twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost. “Prepare the Table with Justice and Joy” series.    Texts: Psalm 23:1-2, Mark 10:35-45 “…one morning long ago in the quiet of the world, when there was less noise and more green…” This line from J.R.R. Tolkien's book The Hobbit has inspired a refrain in the Gaines-Cirelli household over many years, a phrase that is invoked like a prayer or a prophetic rebuke in moments when surroundings are harsh or grating on the nerves. “More green. Less noise.” I suppose one could say it's nostalgic or naïve. But regardless of that, it is what I so often desire. More green. Less noise.  And so I love the line from Psalm 23 that is our focus today as we journey line by line through that Psalm in this series.  The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.     The Lord makes me lie down in green pastures; and leads me beside still waters;  The landscape traversed by the Hebrew people from which the Psalm emerged is diverse—from rocky desert to mountain to seacoast. And there are lovely broad valleys and places where green spreads out like a blanket. The good shepherd knows the terrain, knows when and where we need to be guided from one place to another—and chooses to bring us to green pastures and still waters. Rabbi Harold Kushner begins his reflection on verse two by telling an amusing story of a boy who asks his father why the sky is blue and the grass is green. Of course there are those in this congregation who could answer the boy's questions quite precisely from a scientific perspective. But even if we don't know those answers, Kushner goes on to suggest a fairly simple answer from a theological point of view, namely, the reason the sky is blue and the grass is green is because God made a world God knew we needed… Not just a world that produces sustenance for our bodies, but a world that provides suitable habitats for different creatures, a world that gives comfort and delight.  But what do blue and green have to do with any of that? He spends a bit of time talking about how different colors evoke different emotional responses. “Remember that light is a form of energy. Light reaches our eyes in waves of different frequencies per second, creating different levels of intensity. For bright colors, red and yellow, the waves are longer and hit the eye with more strength, even as taller, longer ocean waves hit us more forcefully…Darker colors, the blues and greens, emit shorter waves and strike the eye more gently.” And then makes this observation, “God has colored [the] world in predominantly calming colors, blue sky, green leaves, blue-green water, brown trees, colors that calm rather than excite.” And for our siblings who don't see colors, there are other aspects of creation that are similarly delightful and calming…the feeling of a breeze or a warm body snuggled up to us, the sounds of birds, a purring cat, water flowing, the rustle of leaves, the smells of fresh cut grass, wet earth, flowers, wood smoke.  We know that the elements of our planet can be harsh and dangerous as well. But there's a reason people yearn to be outside in nature—any nature! I remember when I lived in New York City, after a long, cold winter, I took a walk on the first warmish, sunny day of spring and was astonished to see that Central Park's Sheep Meadow was literally covered with people. The Lord (or something!) had made them lie down in that green pasture—and you could barely see the green of the pasture for all the people! God made a world God knew we needed… And have you ever noticed that line in the Psalm, “[The Lord] makes me lie down…”? I think I've always thought of verse 2 as mostly about food and water, as a shepherd leading the sheep to pastures and streams for nourishment. But what I've come to appreciate is that it's not only that God has created a beautiful planet to nourish us with food, but also to help us rest, to find calm in what can be stormy waters of life. One translation of verse two reads, “You let me rest in fields of green grass. You lead me to streams of peaceful water.” (CEV) Many poets and other writers have the created world as their primary inspiration and study. One of those is Wendell Berry, farmer, poet, philosopher, prophet. Berry writes these words in his poem “The Peace of Wild Things”: When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free. God has given us this beautiful creation, not only as a source of food, as raw materials to consume and manipulate, but as a doorway into rest, delight, grace, and peace. // Several things converge around this Sunday when it just so happened that these lines fell open for our reflection… October 4th is the traditional Feast Day of St. Francis, who is known for love of all creation and creatures, climate and environmental justice legislation is a centerpiece of current debates in congress, and preparations are underway for a UN Climate Change Conference happening in Glasgow the first couple of weeks of November. Some fail to see any connection between Christian faith and the climate crisis. I remember back in 2015 Pope Francis was catching all kinds of grief for his “green agenda.” Some of those opposed to the Pope's environmental justice advocacy believe “that climate change is being overhyped or that human activity is not a factor and that remedies may do more harm than good…Others simply believe that Francis…should not [weigh] in on issues that touch on technical and scientific matters that some contend are still debatable.” Of course the fiercest debates around environmental issues often come to a head when there is a lot of money to be made and/or the promise of jobs. I have had conversations with close family members (remember I come from Oklahoma and Texas, after all) who argue that careful engineering and maintenance of things like off-shore drilling and fracking are not necessarily bad for the planet, but rather it is only when companies try to do things on the cheap or without care that harm is done. My goal is to keep an open mind and to try to see things from a variety of perspectives. I know that my family members (and others like them) want to care for creation even as they advocate for practices such as those mentioned. But when we add up those things together with mountaintop removal coal mining, deforestation, polluted groundwater, loss of wetlands, greenhouse gas production, paving everything in sight, and Lord knows what else, I can't help but think that we are, collectively, being driven first and foremost not by a balanced sense of forward looking stewardship of both human and environmental needs, but by the short-term money to be made from coal, development, oil, agribusiness, and more.   There are folks here today who have a much more nuanced and complete understanding of the environmental, economic, social, and political issues involved in all of this than I do. But I simply want to remind us of a very simple truth. Regardless of your views about particular practices, our Judeo-Christian faith specifically calls us to a deep and intentional connection with all of creation. In his focus on environmental stewardship, Pope Francis is not, as one particularly mean-spirited writer suggests, being “an ideologue and a meddlesome egoist”; he is being a Christian. Christians are not only called to be caretakers of the world, its earth, air, water, and creatures, but we are also reminded that we are, ourselves, part of the creation. God has created a beautiful world to provide for all we need, body and soul and has given us as the human creature a place and role within the interconnected beauty and order of things. The Christian understanding is not different from the Native American wisdom reflected in the words of Chief Seattle: “Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.” The truth is that the human creature has harmed the web. God has given us green pastures and still waters, but as we have seen, droughts dry up the pastures; waters rise and overwhelm as a result of our lack of care. We cannot assume that green pastures and still waters will always be there. Last week, Foundry Board President Todd Mullins mentioned that environmental justice is part of our vision and agenda for 2022. It's not new—we have solar panels, a rainwater garden, we recycle, and have drastically reduced single use plastic and paper consumption, but we are committed to taking things to another level of sustainability through projects in our physical plant, consciousness raising for practices in our personal lives, and advocacy in the public square.  More green. Less noise. With God's help and our shared commitment and generosity, we'll do our part in mending, sustaining, sharing and enjoying the gifts of green pastures and still waters so that all might be nourished by the good gifts of creation, so that all may “rest in the grace of the world and [be] free.” https://foundryumc.org/archive

17 October 2021 | St. Ignatius of Antioch | Santa Rosa, Calif. This week, we get a new perspective on the beginning of the Hobbit, as well as on one of Shakespeare's greatest plays! Just what was Gandalf doing to prepare that fateful meeting behind Bilbo Baggins and Thorin Oakenshield? And could Lear and Cordelia be an allegory for Reformation England and the Catholic Church? Also in this episode: we commemorate one of our earliest and greatest martyrs, the God-bearing bishop of Antioch, with the account of his trial and readings from his letter to the Romans.

The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien Before Lord of the Rings there was The Hobbit. To many The Hobbit is the cornerstone work of fantasy writing, introducing readers to the high fantasy realm of Middle Earth. JRR Tolkien originally published The Hobbit in 1937 and ever since it has remained among the popular works of fantasy. … Continue reading Ep075 – The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien →

This podcast covers New Girl Season 2, Episode 19, Quick Hardening Caulk, which originally aired on March 19, 2013 and was directed by Lorene Scafaria. The teleplay was written by Ryan Koh and the story was by Brett Baer & Dave Finkel.Here's a quick recap of the episode:Schmidt is not dealing with Cece's engagement well and decides he needs a lionfish. Meanwhile, Jess is impressed with Nick's decisions to be more responsible and finds herself wanting to have sex with him. We discuss Pop Culture References such as:California Lionfish - Schmidt saw a Lionfish at the aquarium and it reminded him of Cece. Later in the episode he tries to get one from the ocean. Additional Pop Culture References such as:The Hobbit - When Schmidt was trying to convince Winston he wasn't upset about Cece, he mentioned that The Hobbit was bad as a reason he was upset. The Hobbit, or There and Back Again is a children's fantasy novel by English author J. R. R. Tolkien. The first of three movie adaptations came out in 2012. Bond Villain - When Schmidt was sharing with the loft that he got an aquarium, Jess asked, “When did you become a Bond villain that couldn't afford not to live with roommates?” The James Bond series focuses on a fictional British Secret Service agent created in 1953 by writer Ian Fleming, who featured him in twelve novels and two short-story collections. The books were adapted into films starting in 1962 and had over six actors play the role of James Bond over time. There is always a prominent villain in each of the books and films. Russell Crowe - Nick mentioned he felt like “Russell Crowe in every movie he's ever been in” when he was pulling the chain at the store. Russell Ira Crowe is an actor, director, musician, and singer. He came to international attention for his role as Roman General Maximus Decimus Meridius in the epic historical 2000 film Gladiator, for which he won an Academy Award, Broadcast Film Critics Association Award, Empire Award, and London Film Critics Circle Award for Best Leading Actor. Judy Garland - When Jess was trying to pursue Nick while on pain meds, she spoke in her old-timey voice and said she was Judy Garland. Judy Garland was an American actress, singer, vaudevillian, and dancer. With a career spanning 45 years, she attained international stardom as an actress in both musical and dramatic roles and was the first woman to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. We cover both the scenes where Schmidt tries to get the lionfish from the aquarium and when he tries to stand up for Nick after seeing his black eye as our “Schmidtisms” this episode. For “Not in the 2020s” we discuss how the men in the bar said that they would buy Jess nachos if she had sex with them and how Jess was telling Nick to “kiss her like a man”, gendering the ask rather than telling him to be more assertive. In our “Yes in the 2020s” we celebrate Nick's regard for consent and not giving in to Jess's advances while she was on pain meds. We also give brief looks into Odette Annable (Shane), Sean Taylor (Random Guy #1), and Casey Adams (Random Guy #2), the Guest Stars we feature in this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Christopher Gehrman (Aquarium Docent), Peter Navy Tuiasosopo (Big Bob), Darlene Kardon (Elderly Woman), Jeff Bowser (Drunk Dude), and Vicky Dalli (Hot Bar Girl).We also discuss how this is Peter Tuiasosopo's second New Girl appearance but his first as Big Bob. In the podcast, we share this article (which contains spoilers) where we learned that this episode was more influenced by Cheers than any other in the season and how the showrunners wanted to explore Winston's dynamic further this season.While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Pacific Sea Centre (Audubon Aquarium of the Americas) - In the episode the aquarium that Winston takes Schmidt to is titled the Pacific Sea Centre but the aquarium pictured is actually the New Orleans Audubon Aquarium of the Americas.

10 October 2021 | XX Sunday after Pentecost | Menlo Park, Calif. Fall has fallen upon us at last! As I take in the crisp morning air this Sunday, I share some thoughts about midterms, ordination preparations, the passing of time and the turning of the seasons. In this week's Tolkien readings, we learn some background details about the Dúnedain, the Istari, and the palantíri, and what the man really thought about the first cover design of the American paperback edition of The Hobbit! Also, how is the Church both the body and bride of Christ, as well as the people of God? We unpack it all here under the fading leaves. Opening music: “Ecce panis angelorum,” sequence by St. Thomas Aquinas, composed by Juan Alfonso Garcia, sung by Laudes Christi, dir. Lucian Onița, Timisoara, Romania, 2018.

It's our first live Q&A episode of the season, which means Alan and Shawn have got our speculating caps on for another round of questions from our guests! We field questions on the married life of the Valar (but not in the way you're thinking), the size of Hobbit feet, and an almost forgotten fight between Galadriel and Dol Guldur. Plus, opinions on The Nature of Middle-earth, a booth review of the cutting of the Ring from Sauron's finger… and wings, schmings! We want to know: do Balrogs have the power of speech?

You're listening to Tea with Tolkien, a Podcast for the Hobbit at Heart.Join us as we chat about the works and faith of J.R.R. Tolkien, and strive to carry a little piece of Middle-Earth into our own daily lives.This is the second in a seven-part book club series on The Lord of the Rings. These episodes will be released on the first of each month from now through March to accompany our Book Club as we're reading The Lord of the Rings! If you'd like to join our book club, you can visit www.teawithtolkien.com/book-club.Book Two Recap: Major Themes You Do Not Have to Go Alone: In this book, we see the formation and departure of the Fellowship of the Ring. Finally, the quest has fully begun. While Frodo is willing to take the burden of the Ring onto himself, he acknowledges that he doesn't even know where to begin in terms of getting it to Mordor. And Elrond understands that he cannot go alone. However, he doesn't send him forth with a host of great warriors -- rather he sends him in a small group meant to represent all the peoples of Middle-Earth, a group formed largely around friendship! So we see the theme of Fellowship carrying through into Book II. The life-saving, life-giving virtue of friendship. Rivendell & Lothlorien: In this book we are introduced to two of the great homes of Elvendom in Middle-Earth, Rivendell and Lothlorien. Within the bounds of these two realms, the world feels different entirely. It has been preserved and protected by the power of the Elves, and serves as a refuge for those who visit. Heroic Leadership Requires Sacrifice: Looking at Gandalf and Aragorn specifically, we see in this book the way that great leadership requires sacrifice. In Gandalf's case, he was willing to give up his own life to protect the Fellowship from the Balrog. In Aragorn's case, we see that he is willing to deny his own desires -- both to stay in Rivendell and to go straight to Gondor -- for what he realizes are the greater good of the Fellowship. The Protection of Elbereth: Despite being referenced several times by hobbits and elves even in these first two books, the character of Elbereth remains relatively unexplained throughout The Lord of the Rings. However, with a little help from The Silmarillion, we can begin to understand her more clearly. Elbereth Gilthoniel is the Sindarin name for Varda, one of the Ainur and Queen of the Valar. As the creator of the stars and most beloved by the Elves, the name of Elbereth is invoked in times of distress, darkness, and great need. Her beauty is beyond measure or description, and she is feared and hated most by Melkor. In Three is Company, Gildor says to Frodo, “May Elbereth protect you!”; in A Knife in the Dark, Frodo cries out, “O Elbereth! Gilthoniel!” as he is stabbed by the Morgul blade. And as we journey deeper into the story of The Lord of the Rings, her name will be invoked many more times—keep an eye out for it. I'll see you over on our Discord chat for Book II! I hope this episode was helpful and will spark some good discussion. If you aren't a part of our discord server yet, you can join by signing up for our Book Club with your email address at www.teawithtolkien.com/book-club. I'll be back on November 1st to begin our discussion of Book III, which is the first half of The Two Towers. Discord Chat Discussion Prompts:Keep in mind these are just meant to spark discussion and you don't have to answer every one of these! Thoughts on The Council of Elrond: Did you learn anything new? How has reading the Council of Elrond in light of the Silmarillion changed your perspective (if this isn't your first time reading it)? Discuss Saruman's plans as recounted in the Council of Elrond. Do you think he is lying to Gandalf, or do you think he truly believes that he can still achieve his original purpose in the end? Do Balrogs have wings? The Elves as “Perilous and Fair”? Discuss the different approaches towards Galadriel from the different members of the Fellowship as they enter into Lothlorien, especially that of Gimli and Boromir. How has Gimli's heart softened towards the Elves? At what point did this change occur, and how is its timing significant? How does Galadriel's gift to Gimli mark the beginning of a renewed friendship between Dwarves and Elves? Of all of Galadriel's gifts, which stood out to you as the most interesting or meaningful? How did each gift correspond to its recipient, equipping them according to their needs? Have you noticed any other characters in The Lord of the Rings thus far that remind you of Mary? If so, who and why? Thoughts on Boromir: Do you feel sympathetic towards him? Do you find him relatable?

Imagine seeing Michael Myers walking along the beach during a hurricane...imagine seeing a hobbit happily dozing on a haybale in Italy...and imagine your cat walks in the front door after you thought you cremated him. These are all real stories that happened in the last week and the only place you'll hear anyone talking about them is right here with "That's Outrageous"! We also talk about the 80s film, "One Crazy Summer" where John Cusack goes to great lengths to help save Demi Moore's family home, despite the fact that there is zero chemistry between them.

R. R. Tolkien and The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, which Tolkien said things about the Holy Eucharist and how it relates to Padre Pio.

How do budgies have it off? Is it OK to fancy your father in-law? And what one thing should you always do when pooing at someone else's house? Answering all these questions is the hilarious comedian Jarred Christmas! Yes, that is his real name, and if you think that's funny wait till you hear what the rest of his family is called. He tells us about growing up on a military base, being buddies with Hugh Jackman, and embarrassing himself in front of Tom Cruise. We discuss why Jarred is disappointed in his kids for not swearing, and his hatred of golf. Plus: are cats c***s?

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."   It's the mid-season premiere of 30&Nerdy Podcast, and it's also Hobbit Month on the show.
