Big Fudge is Watching (OOTP Chapter 2, A Peck of Owls)

Listen Later

On this week's episode, we learn things are never as they appear to be as Ms. Figg reveals herself as a Dumbledore informant and Petunia recalls her last correspondence with the Wizarding World! Plus, there are owls... EVERYWHERE!

  • Welcome back, Meg!
  • Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 2: A Peck of Owls. And our Time Turner segment has us spinning some old recordings from past discussions! Check out Episode 434 and Episode 228!
  • Did Dumbledore suspect that Harry would be attacked on Privet Drive? If so, why was more (competent) manpower not invested in Harry’s protection?
  • Why is Harry facing criminal charges for doing a bit of simple, defensive magic?
  • Given how fast the owls show up, are they using some form of magic themselves?
  • Say what?! Petunia knows about Dementors... and Azkaban!
  • When Petunia references that awful boy, does she mean James... or Snape?
  • Remember My Last! Was Petunia actually excited to receive a letter from the Wizarding World? Has she ever heard Dumbledore's voice in person?
  • Do Petunia and Snape share a similar love for Lily and disdain for Harry?
  • Shouldn't Vernon have every right to want to protect his family? Especially, after he learns of Voldemort's return?
  • Lynx Line: How would we improve on the Ministry of Magic's disciplinary process for Harry?
  • Our Most Wicked Figg Line of the Week: the hosts do their best impressions!
  • Quizzitch: In Scotland, the peck was used as a dry measure until the introduction of imperial units as a result of the Weights and Measures Act of what year?
