A little over 8 months since launching Middle-earth Network Radio we’re ramping up for the new year. Starting tomorrow, Tuesday December 6th we’ll be making every Tuesday ‘Tolkien Tuesday’! What this means is that every Tuesday you can get your Tolkien fix right here on Middle-earth Network Radio with only music inspired by Tolkien for the entire day.

Howard Shore? Of course, we have the ASCAP license for all the mainstream and popular music,  but we’ve added over ‘one hundered and eleventy-one’ (and many more) new tracks of our favorites like Lonely Mountain Band and Marc Gunn,  the soundtrack from War in the North, Born of Hope, and one of the few who have permission to put Tolkien’s poems to verse, Broceliande, and yes, even renowned fantasy artist, Ted Nasmith!  Try and find some of these on Pandora!!!

Want to know more about ‘The Hobbit’ and Middle-earth?

Join us for a line-up of  ‘the best of the Tolkien web’ shows each Tuesday.  Start out with the ever popular Father Roderick as he share his ‘Secrets of The Hobbit’.  Start reading ‘The Hobbit’ in earnest and get a whole new understanding from Dr, Corey Olsen, aka ‘The Tolkien Professor’ as we begin anew with his first in the ‘The Hobbit Series’, and then go forward each week as we continue on with these world class and easy to follow lectures.  It just gets better with our very own Michael Kaiser, as he and son Micah feed us the latest rumors and news, plus insights into the world of Tolkien, The Hobbit Movie, and more with the extremely popular Middle-earth Minutes.

If this isn’t enough, finish off the evening (for those in the US) with our LIVE ‘Founders’ Inklings’ where you can meet the Founders of Middle-earth Network and special guests.  Join us in the ‘Live Event Chat’ or in The Bird and Baby in Lord of the Rings On-line.  Stick around after since we’ll be adding a special surprise at the end of each ‘Tolkien Tuesday’  for the really die hard fan.  So if you’re like us and can’t get enough of Tolkien you can enjoy a full meal and even ‘fill up the corners’ on Middle-earth Network Radio.

“Secrets of the Hobbit’ airs each Tuesday at 1 AM, 10 AM, & 6 PM, followed by ‘The Wardens of Westmarch’ a Tolkien community, ‘Middle-earth Minutes’, and the ‘Tolkien Professor’.  All times are EST in the US.
