The Buddies read what might be their favorite book ever written in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. They are joined by special guest, and Harry Potter super fan, Jimmy for the fourth installment of the greatest series to ever live. This is a long one and they touch on pretty much every topic you can imagine. From the true dark lord, to wizard gambling, to going out on top (that is to say dying on top). So hold on to your broom handles, because we’re flying right into the action on this one.

The Buddies apparate into the third Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. They got to chatting about: Wizards and their fashion choices, romantic scenes, Hermione's workout regiment, and how Snape's redemption arc got lost somewhere between the book and the big screen. So practice your "Lumos Maxima" for those late-night reading sessions, and join the Buddies as they dissect a film that's darker than Hagrid's rock cakes.

The Buddies fly into book 3 of the Harry Potter series in, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. They're joined by special guest (with an appropriate name): Magic. They discuss everything from taking a page out of Willy Wonka's 'how to deal with spoiled children' book, to the questionable penal system of Azkaban. They also get into important topics around: The raging hormones of pubescent wizards, chocolate being the ultimate magical and non-magical cure, and how Snape is dead to them. So grab your Firebolt (if you can afford it), practice your Patronus charm, and join the Buddies for book 3 of the greatest series that ever lived.

The Buddies continue their marathon with movie #2, Harry Potter and the Chambers of Secrets, directed by Chris Columbus.

So, grab your broken wand (and maybe consider turning it around), watch out for basilisk snakes/Lucius Malfoy in the hallways, and get your slow clap ready for this week’s episode.

After completing book one of the greatest series of all time, the Buddies sat down to watch the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone movie. The Buddies discussed a number of things including: the pronunciation of "Quidditch", saying 'Happy' vs. 'Merry' Christmas, the drunken tendencies of magical hats, Professor McGonagall's potential gambling addiction, and whether Hagrid is a terrible guardian or just really bad at time management. So, grab your wand, don your invisibility cloak, and join us for this week's magical episode. And remember, 'never trust anything that can think for itself if you can't see where it keeps its brain' - unless it's the Buddy Book Club podcast.

The Buddies celebrate their 100th episode by fulfilling their promise and starting on a Harry Potter reading (and movie) marathon. The J. K. Rowling series has been a favorite of the Buddies (they’ve only referenced the books multiple times in all of their other 99 episodes) and they were eager to re-read. Strap in because the Buddies had a lot to discuss, this is a long one. The Buddies went in depth and even added a few new categories just for this series. So, pick up Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone today and join us for a summer Harry Potter marathon.

After reading 1,000+ pages, and dedicating 3 episodes to the Shōgun book, the Buddies finally got a chance to complete the new Shōgun FX series. They didn’t want to be the people that say “the book is better than the show”, but they spend most of the pod (hopefully not too pretentiously) saying the book was better than the show. They got to talking about the positives of subtitles, swimming naked, and seppuku. So join us as we discuss and watch Mariko, Anjin, Toranaga, and all of our other friends from Shōgun.

NEXT BOOK: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling
The Buddies close out Pierce Brown’s, Red Rising trilogy, with book 3: Morning Star. It was sad to see one of the Buddies favorite trilogies come to an end, but luckily in five years they’ll completely forget the series and be able to do it all over again! The Buddies got to chatting about: yearbooks, the prisoner's dilemma, and the drawbacks of filming everything (especially violent massacres). So equip your SlingBlade and wolf cloaks for one last ride (in this trilogy at least) as we finish book 3 in the Red Rising Series.
