It’s been a few weeks, but the podcast is back to recording! People get busy. The next guest will be none other than Philly Improv Theater (PHIT) founder and Executive Director, Greg Maughan! Seen here in a photo (on left) from his duo, Michael Loves Greg, Maughn has had a huge impact on comedy in Philadelphia and how comedy in Philadelphia is viewed from the outside. We’ll be sitting down to talk about what got him into comedy, why he chose to come Philly, how comedy in Philly has progressed over the last decade or so, plans for the future and more. If you have any questions you’d like me to forget to ask him, please post it in the comments section of the site or Facebook.
Khazad-damn!: ROP S02E08
In this episode of the Beacons are Lit we’re discussing The Rings of Power S02E08. This is the season finale, which means after this episode, much like the Balrog of the Misty Mountains, the Rings of Power disappears for a long period only to come back when Amazon digs too deep. The Dwarves show up to save whoever is left at Eregion, Celebrimbor tells Sauron he’s going to the bad place, King Durin goes toe to head to horn with the Balrog, Adar gets a glow up shortly before getting Jon Snowed, Elendil has r-u-n-n-o-f-t as Numenor turns on the faithful, Isildur leaves his babe behind to go back home, Kemmen continues to grow his hater base, Cirdan is nowhere to be seen, and lots more for better or worse. We’re on another break, but will return soon with our awards episodes for The Two Towers and Return of the King. Lots more planned… but not scheduled.
