Jared, Oriana and Ned talk about Ned's choice of topic: cartography. To say that maps help define Middle-earth is to understate; besides the famous map featured in The Hobbit and also given as a key visual element with the book itself, one of two Tolkien drew for it, his own many other maps of Middle-earth he created over time, finalized for publication by Christopher Tolkien both before and after his father's death, establish a visual sense of what Middle-earth ‘looks' like in a broad sense, to the point of spawning numerous atlases, charts and online explorations of that wider world. But then again, cartography in a modern sense is a very Eurocentric proposition, and even the fantasy fiction cartography that Tolkien's maps both drew on and then subsequently influenced in a massive way is very much a product of that wider influence, sometimes in very subtly skewed ways. How do maps function ‘in' Middle-earth themselves, whether as plot device, something referenced casually or even seemingly not needed at all, depending on the character? What about the historical context of the British Empire and the sense of ‘discovering' the world might have fed into Tolkien's own views about how to create his own maps and charts, as much as his own knowledge of medieval manuscripts and maps in turn? How have the various visual interpretations of Middle-earth in other media used maps in turn in their efforts and to what purpose? And how is the long shadow of Middle-earth's maps and their impact being interrogated by creative artists around the world as newer worlds are envisioned and explored? (And yes…we have some initial thoughts on a certain streaming TV series.)SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle. We cover the Middle-earth globe for you. (When it became a globe.)Look we know, WE KNOW. For now we just recommend Gita Jackson's piece “Whose Fantasy Is This?” Fuck racists and then some.Ned's Twitter threads on the time compression problem in the series with specific regard to Númenor.Jared's Patreon piece on the show a few episodes in.Cartography! It's got a history.The Tolkien Estate's map section on its website.The Tolkien Society's closer look at the annotations that Tolkien wrote for Pauline Baynes regarding her poster map.Jonathan Crowe's two excellent pieces for Tor: “Celebrating Christopher Tolkien's Cartographic Legacy” and “Where Do Fantasy Maps Come From?”Barbara Strachey's Journeys of Frodo and Karen Wynn Fonstad's The Atlas of Middle-earth both remain enjoyable reads, Fonstad's volume being especially key.Crowe's Tolkien entries on his own blog, The Map Room.Stentor Danielson's articles on cartography at the Journal of Tolkien Studies.Sally Bushell's “Mapping Worlds: Tolkien's Cartographic Imagination” from her book Reading and Mapping Fiction (you'll likely need library or academic access to read it directly).Nicholas Tam's “Here Be Cartographers: Reading the Fantasy Map.”The British Library's “What Is a Fantasy Map?”A 1999 New York Times piece summarizing the increasing study and work being done throughout the decade working against the Eurocentric cartographic approach.A 2019 undergrad paper by Luke Maxwell on imperialism and Eurocentrism in fantasy cartography.The 2021 Dream Foundry panel discussion, “Fantasy Maps and Worldbuilding from a Non-Eurocentric Perspective,” archived on YouTube.Our episode on the Red Book of Westmarch, a putative source of the Lord of the Rings maps.There are indeed many online Middle-earth maps and atlases – including as mentioned the Minecraft Middle-earth.

In 1996 Argentina adopted genetically modified (GM) soybeans as a central part of its national development strategy. Today, Argentina is the third largest global grower and exporter of GM crops. Its soybeans—which have been modified to tolerate being sprayed with herbicides—now cover half of the country's arable land and represent a third of its total exports. While soy has brought about modernization and economic growth, it has also created tremendous social and ecological harm: rural displacement, concentration of landownership, food insecurity, deforestation, violence, and the negative health effects of toxic agrochemical exposure. In Seeds of Power: Environmental Injustice and Genetically Modified Soybeans in Argentina (Duke UP, 2020), Amalia Leguizamón explores why Argentines largely support GM soy despite the widespread damage it creates. She reveals how agribusiness, the state, and their allies in the media and sciences deploy narratives of economic redistribution, scientific expertise, and national identity as a way to elicit compliance among the country’s most vulnerable rural residents. In this way, Leguizamón demonstrates that GM soy operates as a tool of power to obtain consent, to legitimate injustice, and to quell potential dissent in the face of environmental and social violence.

Dice and Toe Beans is a roleplaying actual play podcast where we believe that any game can be a game about cats if you believe in yourself. Dice and Toe Beans is hosted by Stentor Danielson and Kristina Boyd. We showcase one-shot runs of a variety of independently published roleplaying games, modified as necessary to play as cats. We do mostly one and two-player games, but we're also hoping to bring on a variety of cool guests for games that require three or more players. If you like what you've heard, please subscribe to us on your favorite podcasting service, and consider leaving a five-star rating or review to help others find the show.

From busy class schedules to bathtime, it's tough being a kitten. But with a little guidance from their professors, a little patience from their foster homes, and a little bit of laser magic, Hamhock and Cheese Sandwich might just turn out okay in the end.

I am a huge fan of boardgames.  My ideal evening involves hanging out with close friends, having some snacks, wine, good conversation, and playing boardgames.  Most people I admit to this, look at me like I have been stunted at age 10. (Which actually may be true)  They hear boardgames and they think the standards, Monopoly, Trivia Pursuit, Life...  All of which i personally hate, by the way.  Monopoly- the game in which you end up despising your friends and family, the deal making game.  Trivia Pursuit- Pop Quiz asshole!  What you don't remember some history tidbit from Bystantine Period?  The game designed to make you feel stupid.  Life-  See what job you should have had?  Come on?  You don't have 8 children and an aspiring career as a hedge fund manager?  FAILURE.   Games are no longer what you pull out at awkard family ggatherings to pass the time away.  They are events, social communication connections, brain builders, creative outlets.  I wanted to feature different games on this podcast to show off not only that there are new games out there for everyone, but also that our city has people developing games that are inspriing, creative, and fun.  I wanted to showcase those people, in the hopes that you yourself will check out their games, and buy one, play one, and also find your love of games bloom.  There is something for everyone out there.   My first feature is game designer Stentor Danielson.  Besides having the coolest name ever, he creates games, and also draws maps that resemble Middle Earth, but in local settings.  Ever seen the one he did of Pittsburgh?  Yeah, that was him, as if I didn't have reason enough to want to talk to him, he throws in these gorgeous maps.  He does custom work, and other places around the world.  We will chat about how he got into making them and about his game Money, Bunny, Gunny, which I played last time we got to hang out.  Easy to play and fun to boot. Hope you enjoy! Support local people!  Also, sorry about recording as podcast #17!
