About this episode

Listen to Infamous HERE.  For Kelly Michaels, all of history is a Tolkien-like battle between a  small number of heroes and villains. Most of us are just hobbits — the  in-between folks, just trying to get by. Kelly, who’s getting by working  at Wee Care Nursery School in Maplewood, New Jersey, considers herself  an ordinary hobbit. That is, until she — like Frodo — gets swept up in a  battle, as panic sweeps nation over a surge in Satanism. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
