Rings of Power S3E4 Recap: "Gundabad"
Episode 4
Friday, 13 November, 2026
Halfway through a season that has been out for three days, Mike White and the Doctor of Podcasting, Chris Stachiw, take on “Gundabad,” starting with a release schedule that dropped four episodes at once and held the rest back a week. The dwarves steal the hour, with Eddie Marsan’s Thráin turning the court intrigue in Khazad-dûm into the show’s most gripping thread, while Chris argues the Númenóreans should be written as imperialist villains, not sympathetic ones.Sauron rides a fell beast to Gundabad, Galadriel reunites with Celeborn, and Arondir’s run ends just as Jamie Campbell Bower tags in, a trade neither host is sold on. Marnukh’s nose for rot comes in handy, the escape leans on the Eagles one more time, and Chris wishes Theo had kept his helmet on. Plus: the lazy misunderstanding plot the dwarves didn’t deserve, and a cliffhanger that has to hold for a week.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-podcast-of-power--5652801/support.___The Podcast of Power is a weekly Rings of Power breakdown from Mike White and Chris Stachiw — one episode at a time, plus whatever Middle-earth tangents we can't help ourselves from taking.
