About The Lorehounds
Back in early 2022, David approached John about an audio project about Tolkien and The Rings of Power. Like lightning in a bottle, within a week they had a theme song, show art, and outlines. The Lorehounds published their first few months of podcasts under the Bald Move Network before creating their own independent podcast network.
Since then, The Lorehounds have expanded beyond covering Tolkien. While they keep Tolkien on the mic with their monthly Silmarillion Stories, The Lorehounds have provided full recaps and analysis of a wide variety of shows from franchises such as Star Wars to True Detective.
In 2024, Elysia, already a successful podcaster and network affiliate, joined as a full-fledged Lorehound. The Lorehounds Triarchy will continue being your guides to great TV, video games, books, movies, and more.

X-Men '97 - Season 2 Oneshot - MCUniverse
Jean walks Elysia through a recap of all the Apocalyptic plot arcs of season two of X-Men '97 on Disney+. Along the way they debate why the back half of the season worked better for them, the best couples in Marvel comics, and what makes a death truly devastating. Contact Us Questions or comment...
Lanterns - S01E04 - The Weenie
David and Jean hit the midseason mark of HBO's Lanterns with an episode that keeps flipping the buddy cop dynamic between Hal and John Stewart Jr. on its head. The conversation covers a standout car scene between the two leads, the show's clever use of J-cuts to keep viewers locked onto the ...
Discussing LANTERNS 1x04 (aka "Axing the right questions.")
WE KNEW IT! Or rather, we had a good idea that you-know-who would be a Manhunter. All the usual hilarity ensues as we discuss this episode and the revelations made. Including JD falling victim to that interdimensional box again, and Aaron Pierre quite possibly did a Google search to figure out how t...

By Far the Best of the Silo Podcasts
I found Elysia and Luke after listening to another Silo podcast that wasn’t that satisfying. I have since listened to every one I could find and Wool-Shift-Dust is my favorite. Elysia puts in so much work preparing for each episode. Luke’s political and military insights are great. This is the first time I’ve ever com...
Read MoreGreat recap and analysis
Recently had a second child so have been half falling asleep during some episodes of Silo. This is great to help fill in the blanks. A lot of research into every podcast and appreciate that the hosts while clearly fans of the show are also objective about a show that I like, despite its flaws!
Really want to love this pod
Been listening since the beginning when they started ROP on Bald Move. Some of the hosts have become really annoying. David is too pretentious and talks too much about how podcasting interferes with his life. Stop podcasting if that’s the problem. Eleysia gets so upsets when anyone/anything disagrees with her point of ...
