Episode 65: Maya's Mad Ramblings of The Silmarillion

Canonically Incorrect

Hey guys. I thought this was going to be fun. If you can't tell, this is Maya coming in live to tell you that the Silmarillion is very complex, and I've dived deep to help you all better understand it for the new Lord of the Rings show, The Rings of Power. Unfortunately, Sydney had to sit there and watch me descend into madness as I tried my best (keyword: tried) to tell the history of not only Middle Earth, but all of Arda (excluding the 4th Age of Man and the prophecy). If you have any questions, I now consider myself an expert, so please do not ask :) (P.S. I know it's Rivendell and Bilbo isn't a member of the Fellowship please don't attack me k thxs)
