Help keep Now Playing on the air!

​He is fire…he is death…he is Smaug, the titular dragon in Peter Jackson’s second Hobbit film.  How can a halfling and some dwarfs battle such a mighty beast? How much of the movie passes before they get there? And how many characters from the original Lord of the Rings trilogy will appear along the way? Donate and support Now Playing you can hear Arnie, Jakob, and Stuart discuss all this and more in this review of The Desolation of Smaug as they prepare for next week’s new release — Battle of the Five Armies!
