- 27: God Save The Queen
Dean sings the national anthem, JKR doesn't know the difference between satin and silk, and Krum is here! Teenage drama abounds, as we laugh at accents, protect Harry, and predict the upcoming tournament
NOTE: Adela had a bit of audio trouble, as did our recording equipment (the lovely discord bear bots Craig and Giarc), so there's a bit of an abrupt end to our outros!

1 hr 12 min - 25: Are We Really Fans?
In this episode we discuss chapters 10-12 of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. We touch on the return to Hogwarts, the beginnings of Hermione's flawed activism, what disability looks like (or doesn't look like) in the wizarding world; and perhaps the biggest question of this podcast: what does it mean to be a fan of Harry Potter, and what are our individual relationships with that concept?

CW brief discussion of family death / child death / parents mourning around 57:00-59:00
We get into the nitty gritty of some super depressing aspects of these chapters. Are Veela or leprechauns beings or beasts? What was JKR thinking when she wrote about house elves? How do you reconcile the horrible choices of JKR with the memories, and reality, of loving this series? How many people did the Veela out at the Quidditch World Cup? Why can’t Harry just be a professional Quidditch player?

In which we discuss some issues with the Weasleys' parenting, explore some discrepancies and plot-holes in the fabric of wizarding society, and argue about Sports. E has fewer and fewer nice things to say about JKR, Zoe gives us a magical theory lesson, and Adela shares her headcanons of the Weasleys who are not straight.

52 min - 21: Falling Out Of Love (Book 3 Wrap-Up)
In our wrap-up for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, we talk about how hard it is to goodbye to something that you've fallen out of love with. Adela struggles to with her ranking of the series, Zoe gets nerdy about libraries, e gets quizzed, and we discuss your thoughts and questions about Azkaban, nostalgia, and how we would rewrite this book if we could.
We'll be taking a short break after this, followed by a couple of bonus episodes about the first 3 movies before we dive into Book 4!

1 hr 15 min - 20: How Can I Make This Story More About Dads?
Content Warning: 37:19 - 48:24 content warning for frank discussion of HIV & AIDs, Homophobia
We had a rough time with these chapters and there was more bad than good. Zoe is too impatient to wait for an intro into the chapters, E did not have a good time at all with these here plots, and Adela is very, very, VERY frustrated with Dumbledore's DM-ing. A few long rants are had, and some nicer, and quieter moments are enjoyed

About Potternaught
From the publisher's feed
A podcast about authorship, fandom, messy feelings and critical explorations of the Harry Potter books and franchise. For fans in crisis, critics, and those who have only absorbed the phenomenon…
through cultural osmosis and are curious enough to dive in (to the good and the bad).
