We discuss our &#8220;grade-level&#8221; of Tolkien knowledge and what we thought of season one of this lavish new fantasy series from Amazon. We also get into  an interesting discussion on branding and how some franchises sometimes do right by the &#8220;brand&#8221; and others maybe not so much. The conversation touches on other topics like &#8220;Star Wars&#8221; and &#8220;The Wheel of time&#8221; as well as other things. Had a really great time chatting with Jen and hope everyone enjoys listening too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next week I&#8217;ll be back with a new podcast with a possible topic of comic book TV shows &#8211; still deciding. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow American listeners.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_5890\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-4842-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3\">http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/?powerpress_pinw=4842-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/treksinscifi\/www.treksinscifi.com\/podcasts\/TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"TreksinSciFi_882_Rings_Power.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"http:\/\/treksinscifi.com\/podcast_notes\/?feed=podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week Jen from the Anomaly Podcast joins me for a great chat about &#8220;The Rings of Power&#8221; TV series.
