Film historian and veteran podcast host Mike White joins Adrienne Barker, MAS, to reveal the story behind the return of The Podcast of Power, a podcast dedicated to The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

Mike explains why the show went quiet, what inspired its return, and why he and co-host Chris Stachiw decided to revisit every episode of Season Two before covering the upcoming third season. He also shares how his exclusive interview with acclaimed composer Bear McCreary became an important part of the relaunch.

The conversation ventures far beyond Middle-earth. Mike discusses his 15-year journey hosting The Projection Booth, building the independent Weirding Way Media network, interviewing more than 1,000 filmmakers and entertainment professionals, and creating thoughtful conversations where people can disagree without attacking one another.

Adrienne and Mike also explore movie music, storytelling, breaking the fourth wall, immersive film marketing, horror movies, cult cinema, guilty pleasures, and why every movie is somebody’s favorite movie.
