    Almost 10 years of Harry Potter conversation, and

    I have listened almost from the beginning. Like a fine wine, it takes 10-20 years to develop complex flavors with either high acidity or sugar. And over the years with the changing complement of hosts, there has been both. Always a new perspective on the books, the movies, and the soon to be HBO series. All

    I can say to the hosts and the podcast itself, is to live long and prosper.

  • Detachable Cribbing Cuffs

    There were Detachable Cribbing Cuffs that were enchanted cuffs that could be attached to sleeves and allowed for cheating. Banned during O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. Examinations, this item is used for cheating. So I would guess that the cribbing spell assisted the caster in cheating on the O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. examinations.

  • New Harry Potter

    The cast announcements for the upcoming HBO Harry Potter series continue to intrigue me. I try to hold my criticism until the show actually airs. You have to keep an open mind about the decisions they make. I just trust and hope Rowling will make the right decisions and not do anything too crazy.

  • Entertaining podcast but content not quite what I wanted

    Ultimately the show just isn’t quite what I was looking for. I was hoping for some more extensive discussion of the books and I think it just isn’t possible when one of the hosts is reading them for the first time. The hosts have good chemistry, I was just hoping for more of a deep dive.

    On a technical side, the episodes I listened to definitely could have benefited from some editing, both technical and otherwise. There were often long gaps of dead air or moments when they were struggling with... more
