Love these guys. The dynamic between the two of them is what keeps me coming back. I’ve been a HP fan since the 90s, so I’ve always been looking for a good place to listen to hot takes on the magical world. There’s no where else that does it like them on the internet. I’ll be a listener for life!
You guys know my brother in law, Cole. He gifted me your game for Christmas and I love it (though I have no one to play with.) Then I discovered you on socials and am now learning just how similar we are via the podcast. Latter-day Saint, ball-knowledge, Harry Potter canon defenders that have their own podcast? I only wish I could come on for a guest episode or use a time turner to have met while also at BYU to be a Lupin to your James and Sirius. Cheers, bros! May we one day meet in person.
I was just looking through the episodes and it seems like it would be great but the movies did not fall short of the books it made it better I just don’t agree on this.
This Harry Potter podcast is the real deal, the hosts know their stuff and they love the source material. I’m super excited about their trivia game, I got my copy and my family loves it. Harry Potter is such an immersive series of books with so much awesome stuff to talk about and explore. Keep it coming!
These guys are basically reading my mind

Episodes often feature two steady hosts riffing on canonical material, fan theories, and crossovers with broader pop culture, all while weaving in practical trivia games and planning for future adaptations or spin-offs. A standout trait is the energetic, bantery style that balances serious analysis with broad audience appeal, making it easy for superfans and casual listeners to find engaging entry points.
Noteworthy aspects include long-running series explorations of specific Wizarding World topics, meta-content about licensing and adaptations, and collaborative segments with guests or rotating guests that keep conversat... more
