The Boy Who Hasn't Lived

In the eighth episode of The Boy Who Hasn't Lived, CJ and Arlie talk about chapters 5-9 of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This month CJ blesses us with a number of theories that range from incredible (re: Mrs Norris) and slightly disturbing (re: possible hiding places for Lord Voldemort), to just very confused (re: candidates for heir of Slytherin). We also discuss public toilet anxieties for arguably a bit too long.

In the seventh episode of The Boy Who Hasn't Lived, CJ and Arlie talk about chapters 1-4 of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. We're also joined by our friend Freddy McConnell, who owns a first edition copy of the Philosopher's Stone (sadly rendered worthless in a terrible accident involving his dad heavily underestimating the potential of this book series). This month we ponder where wizards get off thinking telephones are so weird when they go around sending messages by owl all the time, what Lucius Malfoy is doing selling naughty items at Borgin and Burkes, and whether Ginny is a giant lesbian.
