Ben: The elves definitely felt like no offense to them but I guess offense like the elitist class who is like we were all set up though. Ben: They acknowledge the cost of what they're putting Frodo through that and glaudrial says to him like you can't just fuck off to Mars with your family or go into your little leg bunker we are part of this too it's class solidarity y'all It's what we all gotta get our arms around class all right leverage your privilege elves yeah which they have to do Yeah.

Welcome back to the Tolkien-verse! We are diving back into the Lord of the Rings trilogy with The Two Towers. We are joined by Justine Mastin, therapist and author of Starship Therapise and The Grieving Therapist. We touch upon a variety of themes: grief and loss, ecological grief, individuation, Jung. We also discuss Internal Family Systems and how that is demonstrated via Gollum/Smeagol.
