539: What Was The '98 Hogwarts School Year Like? And More Muggle Mail

Listen Later
On this week's episode, we empty some owl post from our Muggle Mail bag! What would the 1998-99 Hogwarts school year have looked like? Why did Harry decide to become an Auror? Plus, we analyze several new Credence theories, a Chicken Soup from India and a horcrux email from 2006 that we’ll finally answer!

  • We're confounded! Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is closing this January!

  • It's our monthly Muggle Mail episode with voicemails covering Dumbledore and Grindelwald's blood pact, Mads Mikkelson's casting and more!
  • Would Hermione, Ginny and Luna have been close? Would the Slytherin students have been treated poorly? How would Snape have been remembered?
  • Credence theories abound!
  • Would J.K. Rowling ever write a HP-world book from a different character's perspective?
  • What is Grindelwald's emotional motivation?
  • Chicken Soup for the MuggleCast Soul returns!
