Britt and Chris have a great time talking about their original #bestboy, Sam! They discuss his determination, his love for Frodo, his status as a gardener in a group of literal royalty and nobility, and his treatment of Gollum. They also find an interesting empire metaphor in the One Ring, consider a Japanese American reading of Samwise, entertain cute AUs, and learn from the hope Sam enacted even under the darkest shadows.
