Important Nimbus Update from Shay
This chapter is a Ron highlight
Ron's humor is on point - "Really break your leg!"
Ron encourages Neville - it makes more sense to Tori why he was made a prefect.
The Ron Vs Malfoy fight - amazing
Is it weird Hermione is checking out random history books for background reading?
Harry having nightmares about the mirror and his parents death - is it Harry's own mind, him being a Horcrux, or repressed memories?

Why did Dumbledore choose to give Harry the cloak now?
Theory: Dumbledore waited to give Harry the cloak once he found out he knew about Flamel.
Harry's obsession with the mirror
Harry goes through a mix of anxiety, grief and longing with his Parents in the mirror. It shows how much he longs for them and how much he doesn't actually know about them - it's his first time even seeing them

January 26, 2022Bonus #1| Harry Potter 20th Anniversary Special
Bonus Episode #1 | Harry Potter 20th Anniversary Special
Our first bonus episode!
Happy 28th birthday to Host Tori (and 27th to Shay from the 12th)
Tori bullied Shay into watching the special so she could talk to someone about it
So much of the cast came back - it was amazing!
Dan acknowledging how they worked with some of the greatest UK actors and not knowing is amazing - and his reaction to being able to work with Gary Oldman
Love how 1st director Christopher Columbus started the foundation for the HP films, and how the cast notes how good he made it for them
We love the audiobooks worked into the different segments
Love Jason Isaacs audition story!
Love getting all the different perspectives from the film directors
Emma Roberts Photo debacle
Helena Bonham Carter is one of the best parts of the reunion
The Memoriam was very well done
How they incorporated the author
Emma loves the dance scene in DH - we both hate it
Emma was thinking about leaving the HP franchise - we discuss the sexualization she went through as a teen and if that may have impacted her
We also discuss the Harry/Voldemort last battle scene and how we don't agree with Yates
They look so much better than in the epilogue
Loved hearing Emma, Rupert and Dan talking about how wrapping the series was and how it affected them and how they view themselves

January 19, 2022#11 SPORTS!!! | PS Chapter 11, Quidditch
Potter Revisited Episode #11 | SPORTS!!! Aka Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 11 "Quidditch"
We have our first ever guest on the show - Tori's sister Brittany who played Muggle Quidditch at university
We discuss Lee Jordan's commentary - and how great it is!
We theorize how Lee got the commentating job
Why was Lee the only commentator during his time at Hogwarts?
+1 Snape Sucks count for Snape taking Harry's book to be a dick
Did Snape get Filch to look at his wound or was he just there?
Meeting Oliver Wood - who uses "Sports!" as a personality trait
Hermione is able to do some pretty complex magic already - and seems to understand it as she spots Snape doing a "curse"
Hermione basically punches Voldemort in the face when she knocks Quirrell over
Do Harry and Ron take advantage of Hermione?
Hermione has some Slytherin tendencies - she lites Snape on fire rather than any other form of distracting him
Interesting perspective changes in this chapter - not seen a lot in the rest of the series
Poor Hagrid.
Quidditch discussion!
Brittany talks about her experience playing Muggle Quidditch in university and some of the game play differences from the books.
Shay was going to join her University team but realized it was an actual sport
Tori did a student documentary on a Quidditch team

January 05, 2022#10 Feeding Slytherin’s to Trolls | PS 10, Halloween
Potter Revisited Episode #10 | Feeding Slytherin's To Trolls Aka Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 10 "Halloween"
Happy New Year!
Hogwarts is feeling like home to Harry and it is very sweet
Shay hates Dumbledore's staff choices
Where did the idea for Quidditch come from?
Did McGonagall buy Harry's broom from her own fund or school funds?
Are Percy and Bill the only Weasley's who weren't on the school Quidditch team?
Hermione is very annoying! Would she have done better socially in Ravenclaw, or would it have impeded her growth?
Why did Dumbledore send everyone to their dorms when the Slytherin common room is IN the dungeons?? Does Dumbledore want Slytherin's to be troll food?
We love hats!
Snape is acting super sketchy!
The Troll in the bathroom scene is a great example of how Hermione is very gifted intellectually but is not good under pressure
Theory: Hermione threw herself under the bus with the Professors to earn Harry and Ron's friendship
Important Question: what is a Jacket Potato?
The Golden Trio is born!
Would Harry and Ron have become friends with Hermione if it weren't for the Troll situation?

Potter Revisited Episode #9 | Being A Gryffindor Sounds Exhausting Aka Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 9 "The Midnight Duel"
We discuss how helpful remembralls really are
Harry thinks he is going to get beaten - we are surprised by the corporal punishment mention
Is Peeves chaotic neutral or evil?
We love Ron's solution to Harry not knowing enough magic for a duel - just hit him!
Harry immediately shows promise on a broom - we discuss what this means to him
Is they way they teach students flying dangerous?
Why did Madam Hooch leave a bunch of unsupervised 11 year olds alone?
McGonagall - possibly the most strict teacher, bends the rules for Harry. Is it just her competitive spirit or is it something more?
Is Hermione aware of how poor she is doing socially? She is in everyone's business in this chapter.
We dive into the beginning of the Harry/Malfoy rivalry
It shows how close Harry and Ron have become as he is so ready to back Harry up
Malfoy was very clever in is manipulation of Harry

Potter Revisited Episode #8 | Severus Snape Needs Some Therapy Aka Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 8 "The Potions Master"
We discuss the new HBO Harry Potter Special premiering January 1, 2022
Why do they make 11 year olds attend a class at midnight?
Is Dumbledore a cult leader? Potential future episode!
We both love the descriptions of Hogwarts and the day to day blurbs of each class Harry attends

Interesting how both Peeves and Filch are unlikeable, but complete opposites
Why is Filch at Hogwarts? It seems like the worst place for him - Does Dumbledore have something to do with it?
Deep discussion on Snape

Potter Revisited Episode #7 | The Bad Guys Are The Ones In Green Aka Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 7 "The Sorting Hat”
We meet a number of Professors, including Professor McGonagall
Lots of Weasley Sibling antics - we love it!
How is the Sorting Ceremony kept a secret?
Shay's Weasley Twins theory - was the Twin's scaring Ron intentional to make sure he gets Gryffindor?
Is having the first years "perform" in front of the whole school cruel?
Neville's family thought he was a squib - does this show Wizarding Prejudices in "Good" families?
Harry finally sees Dumbledore in person - and thinks he's a bit mad
Our first glimpse of Snape and setting him up to be the perceived Big Bad
Is the School Song just awful or do we have no School Spirit?
We meet the House Ghosts of Hogwarts, and Peeves our favourite Poltergeist
Is Harry's dream a regular anxiety- induced dream, or could it be related to Voldemort / The Horcrux?
We meet the House Ghosts of Hogwarts
How are Ghosts governed by the Ministry? Are they allowed to go wherever they want?
We discuss the sorting system at Hogwarts and if it is actually beneficial
How does sorting work? Is is based on the traits you have or the traits you admire/ want to achieve
Does it work to have students of like mind put together - how can they grow as people?
Theory: The Hat used to sort by traits, but noticed patterns and now sorts by that logic
Did sorting create the perfect feeding ground for future death eaters?
Percy could have been in Slytherin
