This is a podcast about stories, myths and Catholicism. Stories are how we orient ourselves in the world. In Catholicism, we believe in the Greatest Story: Christ crucified and resurrected. We participate in His story through ritual worship; the liturgy. Even in the Catholic Church, these truths are often forgotten or ignored. My mission for this podcast is to explore storytelling, myths, and how these fit into Catholicism. I will cover Catholic fantasy and science fiction authors, mythology, folklore and the Catholic faith. <br/><br/><a href="https://aaronirber.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast">aaronirber.substack.com</a>

Tolkien's Darkest Tale (ft. Thomas Mirus)
<p>In this special episode, I am a guest on Thomas Mirus’ Catholic Culture podcast. We discussed Tolkien’s darkest story, The Children of Hurin. </p><p>Thomas gave me permission to publish the episode on my own show as well. The original episode was published here: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/tolkiens-darkest-tale-w-aaron-irber/ </p><p>Thomas Mirus can be found on Twitter.com @CatholicPods and on Substack <a target="_blank" href="https://substack.com/profile/8441521-thomas-mirus">Thomas Mirus</a> </p><p>Here are the original notes from the Catholic Culture podcast: </p><p>The darkest, and perhaps most underrated, story J.R.R. Tolkien ever wrote was the tale of Túrin Turambar, a great man of the First Age of Middle-Earth, whose life was ruined by the curse of Morgoth (Tolkien’s Satan-figure) and by his own pride. The tale, which resembles a Greek tragedy, was given its longest and most satisfying version in the posthumously published book The Children of Hurin.</p><p>Aaron Irber, host of a podcast “about stories, myths, and Catholicism”, joins Thomas to discuss this underappreciated work by Tolkien.</p><p>-Aaron’s podcast, <a target="_blank" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-might-believe-in-faeries/id1584838118">I Might Believe in Faeries</a></p><p>Theme music: “Franciscan Eyes”, written and performed by Thomas Mirus. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.catholicculture.org/multimedia/Thomas_Mirus_2018.zip">Download the Catholic Culture Podcast soundtrack.</a></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
