This week we try our hand at some Jungian dream analysis, delving deep into Riordan’s subconscious to find a surprise appearance from Michael Jordan and an even more surprising appearance from long-forgotten relic of Australian comedy - Akmal! 

We also pay tribute to a beloved Harry Potter character who was the victim of an all-time snubbing at this year’s Oscars, dispel the myth that New Zealanders are funny and, in the wake of the Sam Kerr controversy, ask the timely question - is racial abuse always a bad thing? 

INTERNATIONAL MAN OF MYSTERY: this week we reveal the identity of the top Australian politician accused of being a Chinese spy, and while he may not be handsome or suave or even vaguely mobile like 007, he does have at least as much gross sex with foreign ladies 😬

We also talk about Churchill’s legendary love of platypuses and stimulants and Columbus’s legendary love of ramen and anime, as well as Diddy’s dastardly deeds!

This week we were lucky enough to witness Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci in full flight as he put on a masterclass in price gouging, media relations and just generally being a fresh food person 🥕

We also explore the tense relationship between security guards and frolicking gays, revisit an all time blunder from Hollywood’s night of nights and try to navigate the fine line between constructive feedback and child abuse 

Well I’m proud to say that this week we’re talking all about GASMS which is an absolutely feral and very stupid term that you may have never come across in polite society… but we’ll more than make up for it on page 207!

We also extort some fanatical swifties, pick some fantastic beasts for our fantasy NRL teams and throw in a little equestrian chat just for good measure

No time to explain our insanely prolonged absence… we have to talk some serious 🏈🏈FOOTBALL 🏈🏈 specifically the grandiose spectacle that was Super Bowl LVIII with its multitude of thrills, spills and Sunday etc. And more importantly, with the rugby league heading to Las Vegas in a mere matter of weeks, what lessons can the NRL learn from the high-profile romance between Taylor Swift and Kansas City’s very own Dr Frasier Crane? 🥰 

We also objectify Usher in frankly obscene fashion, inspect the Royal Butt, take the old time-shpinner out for a shpin, and meet another classic new character- Snaggletooth!

Ding dong merrily you weasley son of a humbug.. CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE! 🔔🎅

And this year we have but one present for you - a very merry compilation of the highlights from all our xmas episodes for the past 6 years!

See you in 2024

What’s that in the sky? Is it Santa’s sleigh? 🛷💫 No! It’s two brave lesbians in a crude flying contraption rescuing a family of endangered bin chickens...

Tis the season once again 🎄🎅🎄🎅🎄 and as we look back on the year that was, we respond to our many critics by bringing you a complete compendium of all the 2023 highlights for the Paging Mr Potter podcast! We also forensically investigate the gruesome origins of Riordan’s festive hat and more highly suspicious rumours from our high school🕵️‍♂️ 

And of course we round off the year by announcing the naughtiest boy of 2023, our nominee for Time’s person of the year, this year's top Potterphile, and the much vaunted word of the year

This week we take a hatchet to a classic radio segment, mix in a healthy dose of that patented PMP razzle dazzle 🤪 and proudly present to you.. THE CHAMBER OF SECRET SOUNDS! This might just be our most cooked game yet...

We also consider the advantages of being a homeless sex addict, rank off our favourite bears, and discuss whether exposing children to horrific crime scenes is a just punishment for trivial schoolyard misdemeanours.

This week we marvel at the elegance of the humble ponzi scheme and answer the million dollar question... was notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein somewhat lacking in class? We also bust up Morgan Freeman and David Attenborough's narration duopoly and replace them with some crazy voiced freaks, and discuss the latest developments in 'hands on' animal conservation. And of course no podcast would be complete without a few handy tips to help your parents cum..

As calls for human rights and political action reached a fever pitch this week a very unexpected minority group took the opportunity to hit the streets and join in the fight for civil rights 🦊✊

We also interrupted Riordan’s romantic day off to discuss our favourite flavour of ‘Armins’, denounce a well-known Hollywood cannibal, and take incoherent babble to the next level with a game of ‘Peter Palindrome’
