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.
From Science Fiction to Prestige Dramas

What the people say about us
Favorite Silo podcast
I absolutely love this podcast. If you want to go down the rabbit hole with Silo, this one’s for you. When i was watching the latest episode last night I was thinking about how it would be covered here. So that’s how much this podcast is starting to influence my relationship with this show.
Humour, humility and top quality analysis!
In a world of AI generated summaries, listening to Elysia, Luke & Abi break down Silo feels so refreshing and good for the soul.
