Episode 12 (Minutes 1:50:45 to 1:59:38):

This week brings us back to Hagrid’s hut and back to Slughorn’s true memory. We have some strong feelings about the cave’s appearance and the constant mission of putting Harry’s life in danger. Also, how does one MAKE a horcrux, anyway?

Join us next week for minutes 1:59:38 to 2:09:55!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP and Dumbledore now inside the cave.)

Episode 11 (Minutes 1:40:25 to 1:50:45):

This week slinks us into the Room of Requirement for some hiding of books and awkward kissing of mouths. We obsess over the ever-changing location of this room and what symbolism may be behind the color choice of the birds used in Malfoy’s repairing scenes. Slughorn offers the story of a fish he received from Lily and we have varying opinions on that detail…listen in!

Join us next week for minutes 1:50:45 to 1:59:38!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Slughorn saying “..it would ruin me.”)

Episode 10 (Minutes 1:31:00 to 1:40:25):

This week runs us frantically into the hospital wing to visit Ron after the poisoning. We both can’t help but feel the hospital wing looks pretty comfy about now…but maybe not the teenage drama within it. In this chunk we talk about dead birds, a lack of Myrtle, and the probably unanswerable question, how do you make a new spell?

Join us next week for minutes 1:40:25 to 1:50:45!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ginny “You have to get rid of it. Today.”)

Episode 9 (Minutes 1:21:09 to 1:31:00):

This week brings us back to the hallways of Hogwarts for a classic walk and talk with HP and Hermione. We are joined this week by the lovely ladies from the VomCom podcast to weigh in on the up close and awkward scenes of Ron and Lavender-and really Ron and Harry as well… Listen in as we discuss Slughorn’s upsetting boy’s club but also his truly beautiful office space.

Join us next week for minutes 1:31:00 to 1:40:25!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron “..are gonna kill me” and lays down.)

Episode 8 (Minutes 1:10:41 to 1:21:09):

This week gate crashes us back to Slughorn’s party including a very awkward exchange between HP and Snape. We chat about Lavender again being unhinged, the holiday feel of the Burrow, and we sigh at each other over the fire scene. We just…we can’t. No post credits this week, this one killed us!!

Join us next week for minutes 1:21:09 to 1:31:00!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP and Ginny looking up at the Burrow)

Episode 7 (Minutes 59:59  to 1:10:41):

This week dawns on the morning of a quidditch match with a nervous looking Ron wearing…we’re not sure?  We discuss adorable breakfasts, multiple potential druggings, romantic drama in unknown corridors and why must the birds splat? All this and an end credits vent session.

Join us next week for minutes 1:10:41 to 1:21:09!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Cormac straightening up after throwing up on Snape.)

Episode 6 (Minutes 49:31 to 59:59):

This week brings us in from the cold into the new and improved Three Broomsticks pub/hunting lodge. We discover more misheard lines, the abundance of sweaters, why did they get rid of Madame Rosmerta?! And how glorious does the dessert look at the Slug Club Dinner?! Not to mention, some real hate for that snaky hourglass.

Join us next week for minutes 59:59  to 1:10:41!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Slughorn “..buried deep within” and hourglass sand swirling.)

Episode 5 (Minutes 39:42 to 49:31):

This week smoke forms our viewing of Dumbledore’s memory when he first meets Tom Riddle at the orphanage for peculiar children. We discuss the confusing tryouts scene where everyone gets a uniform? And since when can Hermione do non-verbal spells?  Why is this allowed? And did Dumbledore kind of suggest murdering a child when Harry gets out of the pensieve..?

Join us next week for minutes 49:31 to 59:59!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP asking “Anyone fancy a butterbeer?”)

Episode 4 (Minutes 30:00 to 39:42):

This week resumes the beginning of the year feast with some sudden and inexplicable wardrobe changes on the part of Harry and Luna. We talk about the campy scene in Potions and our strong feelings about the Pensieve becoming futuristic. Maybe a few 90’s movies references enter the conversation as well?

Join us next week for minutes 39:42 to 49:31!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP putting his face in the Pensieve.)

Episode 3 (Minutes 20:51 to 30:00):

This week climbs us onto a rickety looking roof to spy on the Malfoy’s outing in Diagon Alley. We talk about the train’s journey to Hogwarts and what is the mystery “whooshing” sound of the camera?? And more importantly, does everyone remember what a Koosh ball is?

Join us next week for minutes 30:00 to 39:42!

(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron saying “...it’s a hat, isn’t it?”.)
