Oh hey this is publishing on Inauguration Day...well...I hope all's well.

What a cool book. As Jordy was saying, this really makes me want to go through Evelyn Hardcastle again.

It's a new year, and it's time for a new book. So long Harry Potter. So long intro-less podcast. So long any other arbitrary thing.

The end of Nostfalgia, the end of happiness. Really, though, it was hard to leave Harry Potter. I was only partly joking the other week when I said we could just go through the series again, immediately.

I DON'T WANT IT TO END. I WANT TO READ HARRY POTTER FOREVER. DON'T TAKE THIS AWAY FROM MEEEEEEE.

This episode might feel a little less clean in the edit, but that's because a data issue happened halfway through and I wasn't about to edit to the same degree a second time. Sorry about it.

Oh, to be young and feel love's keen sting. Dumbledore had it right in the movie.

Sorry we're late today, as you'll soon see, we had some unforeseen circumstances that delayed us.

Here we are! Harry Potter and the Half-Blood prince! I remember this book blowing my idiot 14-year-old mind. Also, this is our 44th project according to our storage filing system, and 4 is my favorite number (making 44 my double favorite number).

Michael CORNER, I remembered it partway through the episode but I didn't want to interrupt Jordy; anyways I know I was wrong about Ginny's boyfriend's name don't @ me.
