<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif;">Have you enjoyed The Rings of Power Season 2? Join Julia Golding and Jacob Rennaker on today’s episode of Mythmakers as they offer their thoughts on the latest season of Amazon’s show. After sharing their initial impressions on the production and visual realisation, they delve deeper into the story choices, lore, and characters, before wrapping up with a rating out of 10 rings (what else would it be?). Along the way, they explore some controversial topics—does The Rings of Power have a female character problem, for instance? Have a listen and then let us know your thoughts!<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;"><!-- [if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;"><!--[endif]--></span></p>
