Episode notes

I think that what we saw at the beginning when he was going to disappear and his whole plan was to give up the ring and everything I think that he was trying to get on the other side. He probably figured hey I'm gonna live this nice long life without it by moving and living with the elves which we didn't know he was doing but it was his plan. So ultimately that pull of addiction was pulling on it you know in that in the final moments and he did age when he was with the elves but I have a feeling he thought he would he did.

The Fellowship of the Ring: Shame, Dissociation, and Trauma Bonds:
One does not simply discuss Lord of the Rings….so we teamed up with Southgate Productions and headed to Mordor to discuss the first Lord of the Rings film, Fellowship of the Rings! We discuss the impact of shame in the decision making and sense of identity amongst the fellowship. We also discuss the many ways that dissociation presents in the film as well as the concept of trauma bonds. So join us and hang on to your cloaks!
