    Somehow I’ve just found this show and I’m so sad to know that there aren’t new episodes to come. I listen to and love many podcasts but this one truly is so warm and inviting while being so silly and fun! I hope one day there will be new episodes coming out again; we would love to have you back anytime you’re ready. 🥰 Much love from, Minneapolis, MN

    🧡the warmth emanates into 2023
    I’ve listened to this about 4 hours today going about my business. And I get sick of things pretty easily !! They feel kinda like the friends you could have over all day and night long Their humor and delight is bringing a delight and positivity to my days. A bit of welcome light to my persistently dreary demeanor ❤️‍🔥⛅️ I am so sad that they aren’t making anymore but I’m glad there is a big ole library that will last me awhile. All good things come to an end, don’t they?
  • Rex65m
    Love the show, wish for more episodes.
    I just found this show a week ago. I binged it over last week and have had a barrel of laughs. Don’t know why the show went away, I hope all is well with Billy and Dom, and I hope they can come back soon!
  • genJordan03

  • Jay Eichman
    Study break
    The best way to spend, my time recovering from classes and homework. I can not wait to listen to more. When I feel worse for the wear I think “oh I can turn on tho friendship onion “. Thank you for this gift of a podcast!
  • BexNark
    Bring them back!!!!
    Five stars to Billy & Dom, no stars to whoever was behind discontinuing this podcast because I don’t think that was the fella’s decision.
  • MrDapp3r
    I hope you are both doing well
    I really miss your podcast, but I truly hope you and your families and friends are doing alright. Please start up on the podcasts again when you’re able to.

    Fantastic Podcast
    I’m a huge fan of LOTR probably saw the films way to young haha. But huge fan to this day ! Billy and Dom and have great chemistry in the films and in real life. They just fit so well together as podcast partners. Like two peas in a pod. I’m always entertained by each podcast episode as I am watering the garden or running a 5k. Can’t wait for your eat the world tv show guys! Keep up the good work. Best. (Also I have to say you guys keep talking about league of legions and getting quite interested in playing it. )
  • MicahMattD
    Fantastic
    Absolutely fantastic!!! I love this show and can’t believe I went so long without knowing it existed. One of my favorite podcasts of all time.
  • Jolly Green E
    Missing out
    How I’ve managed to go this long without knowing this podcast existed is mind blowing and heart breaking. (Very violent responses, but alas there it is.) BillyDom, it’s like finding out the much awaited family reunion happened without ever getting an invite! We love y’all and your generous kind spirits; thanks for the continuing laughs you’ve provided for many years and cheers to many more. -from Texas
  • JC1969
    Take the ring OFF guys
    I thought there was just the ONE ring that was destroyed but it seems that was wrong. It appears Merry and Pip both had them and have disappeared. They are likely somewhere puffing on pipe weed and ale. Come back soon guys.
  • DarthJarJar765
    😢

  • SanFam8676
    One of my favorite podcasts!

    An epic podcast journey with 2 amazing artists
    When is started listening to this podcast I had no idea I was in for such an epic journey into the heart of middle earth and the door cracked wide open on the bond between two of the most sweetest hobbits’s. Billy and Dom never stop surprising me with their untold (insider) stories and secrets from their time on Lord of the rings. But even more they “peel back those layers” of friendship and include us all in their amazing life adventures (and fav foods) together on the air. I feel like I have found the ultimate listening experience and I’m excited for each new episode. With a pint of ale in hand and the friendship onion on my iPhone in another - I’m ready to step into he world of Middle Earth in a whole new way. Cheers to my new found friends. - Mike H. in St. Louis Mo

  • ellyld
    Fantastic but why have they stopped?
    No new episodes the last two weeks and no warnings why????? What’s going on?!!
  • br4386
    Love this pod!
    This podcast is one of my favorites every week! I love watching your episodes on YT. Humble request for more exotic/exciting/unknown foods on Eat the World…thanks for sharing your love and light on a weekly basis, it’s much-needed and so appreciated! xx
  • Rorybird
    The podcast my life needed!
    As Ron Swanson would say: “Just give me all the bacon and eggs you have. Wait, wait. I’m worried what you just heard was, ‘ Give me a lot of bacon and eggs. ‘ What I said was, ‘Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.’ Do you understand?” But, like replace bacon and eggs with Dom and Bills.
  • WestCoastKT
    Silly, fun, AND informational?! Yes, please.
    This is my favorite go-to selfish podcast that is not heavy or about business or family. It’s all about ME having fun and a little mental break from life, the universe, and everything. Thank you for such a fun and light hearted podcast that leaves one feeling pleasantly fulfilled yet light and free.

    10 out of 10
    I listen to this podcast to start my day off! Billy and Dom are hilarious. I can’t help but laugh to myself while listening. Their banter with each other is fantastic and I love listen to their stories and random conversations.

  • HI PLEASE READ OR REPLY
    I LOVE YOUR SHOW
    Hi Billy and Dom. My name is Elizabeth,Sarsha,McCoy. And I have a few questions and a suggestion. Question 1. Can you try more spicy food? (Billy this question is for you.) because I’ve got I suggestion. Have you guys ever heard of Costco? It’s a big store and you can go in and buy your groceries. Anyway, in Costco there’s this bag of chips, lime, kind of spicy it’s really good and it’s great for a midnight snack. Question 2. Can I be one of you guests? Question 3. If you could both choose a different career. What would it be and why? Also I am from the United States of America. God bless you both.😁
  • boyenger
    Wish I’d had this podcast years ago
    My teenage self would’ve killed for this podcast. I’m a massive Lord of the Rings fan, I just adore Billy and Dom and have spent half my life following these guys and enjoying their work. It’s good to hear about their lives and just enjoy their take on a variety of things, including their time with LOTR.
  • PixieLicie
    Silly and fun and perfect
    I don’t think I could love Billy and Dom more!!! Such a nice fun podcast to cheer you up!
  • Fav. Sis.
    Chaotic Fun
    Lifts my spirits each time I tune in, it’s like I’m hanging with friends and eating food and talking about League
  • Freki_v
    May it be a light to you in dark places
    Guys, you really are my light now! The times are super crazy in my country now, no light, no hope, no choice, no way out. Your podcast has been keeping me afloat last couple of weeks, sparkling some light and bringing hope! You are brilliant! And can I say that the level of energy you have is like my new life goal? Love you! Thanks!!!!

    One Podcast to Rule Them All
    I’m sure someone has already written that title before but it’s true! I’ve never been into the idea of podcasts but my brother got me to start listening to you guys(because I love Lord of the Rings) and now I try to listen everyday. I’m only 11 episodes in right now and cannot wait to catch up!
  • Herugrim
    Great
    I came for Merry and Pippin, I stayed for Billy and Dom. This is a great show, not overly political nor agenda-ish… just a fun escape and break.
  • Atieh
    100% Recommended
    I listen to them whenever I feel a little anxious. They are very warm and in the moment and make you feel better. Very entertaining and fun.

    Little window to a big world
    Easy listening during my drives that reminds you the world is a bigger place that your backyard.
  • sciencerules84
