Bill Fliss is the curator of the Tolkien archive at Marquette University, and a friend of mine and of many of us here. One of his projects is the Tolkien Fandom Oral History Collection, where fans record a few minutes of audio answering a few questions about their personal relationship with Tolkien's works. Recently one of those fans, Lukas Heinen, turned the tables and interviewed Bill as well. The interview is published in English.

For anyone here who has yet to participate in Bill's Oral History Collection, I highly recommend it. He is a great guy and the experience of committing your story to sit alongside the Tolkien archives at Marquette is a must for the Tolkien enthusiast.

Go join the Muster!

You're too quick :D

This video will probably will be replaced by a edited one, as the beginning wasn't broadcasted, and the end wasn't cut at the good time. That was the first time we used Zoom and OBS to broadcast on Youtube, so we had some technical details to manage ! I will share the edited version as soon as possible.
