About the Podcast

Hello, and thanks for checking out “Ask Gollum”

I would like to take a moment to introduce myself.  My name is Tyler Michael Jonsson.  I am an actor living in Los Angeles currently getting my Theatre degree and auditioning for anything that presents itself.

I am an enormous fan of the Lord of the Rings books and movies.  In particular, the character of Gollum.

After seeing the LotR movies, I was absolutely stunned by the performance given by Andy Serkis as Gollum, and since I had quite a bit of vocal training (and a natural knack at impressions) I decided to work on an impersonation…

What followed is several years of stunning (and usually frightening) friends, family, and complete strangers.

I have even had people completely convinced that I actually played Gollum in the films, despite my telling them that it is just an impression.

I decided to take my love for acting and Gollum and combine them into something that I could share with other fans on the internet.  Thus “Ask Gollum” was born!

I really hope you enjoy listening to the podcast as much as I enjoy making it!
