Welcome back to the Manor! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to do a pub crawl through Europe in a way that semi-matches Frodo and Samwise's journey with the One Ring? If so, but you wanted some advice, you've come to the correct episode! James leads us from the English Midlands (The Shire) down to the volcano named Stromboli, in Sicily (Tolkien's inspiration for Mount Doom).
Pour a pint and get ready to learn where you can get a good pint of Guinness and wonderful British food on your way!
Next week's episode is part 2 of our "Malort cocktails and favorite band biographies" arc!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to more Python! This is our first of three episodes for series 4 and we're starting with their childhoods! "What?" we hear you shout. "Why are you doing childhoods for their last television series?!" Because we're working backwards in time for the background stuff! Go back and listen to the other series' episodes for "formation," pre-Python," and "university" eras. But for now, enjoy the horrors of their childhoods that gave them their wonderful senses of humor!
Next week's episode is James' favorite quotes from people he likes (okay, mostly David Lee Roth).

Welcome back to the Manor! And yes, you read that correctly, we're talking about rock and metal in Middle Earth!

Pour yourself a pint and enjoy learning about the hippies/blues people/rockers/mods/proto-metal bands that came to these venues, as well as the history of the venues themselves!
