The Dramione Podcast

Note: This is the second episode on the topic of Bloody, Slutty and Pathetic by Whatmurdah and it's full of spoilers. There is a first episode, spoiler free. Make sure you listen to the other one first ;).

Dearest Dramione friend,

Here we are again! Enjoy this episode on Bloody, Slutty and Pathetic full of quotes, deeper analysis of the beautiful characters and the intricate and intelligent plot(s), their diverse relationships, Draco's, Hermione's and Theo's inner worlds, struggles, evolution and happy endings.

We absolutely loved this fic, we're reading it the second time for a deeper dive (because the first time we were so captivated, we were literally swallowing it and reading fast fast fast to find out what's happening next) and recommend it full-heartedly, to you, our dear Dramione friend.

Much love and big muahs,

Georgy and Diana

Note: This is the first episode on the topic of Bloody, Slutty and Pathetic by Whatmurdah and it's spoiler free. There is a second episode coming right after this one, with lots of spoilers. Make sure you listen to this episode first ;).

Hey there dear Dramione friend,

How have you been? Reading lots and lots of Dramione or is life getting in the way?

We're back with a fic that we ADORED. Nowadays, after reading literally millions of words on the "same two idiots in love", it's rare that we get so deep into a fic.

It has a brilliantly perfect name: "Bloody, Slutty and Pathetic". It has everything: Smart and witty writing, characters you fall in love with, gradual, credible and captivating evolution in the Dramione relationship, humor, politics and schemes, one of the strongest Dramione couples and, of course, excellent smut!

If you haven't read it and were looking for something to take you on an unforgettable Dramione ride, this is your fic.

Muah and don't forget there is a second episode on the same brilliant fic, this time abundant in spoilers. Much love, yours truly,

Georgy & Diana

After a 10-months-long absence, Georgy and Diana, are back with good vibes and positive energy in a new feel-good episode full of wonderful new and old fanfic recommendations.

We split the episode in 3:

- Interesting updates from our personal lives (you can skip that part if it's too much information and go directly to what we enjoy most, which is...)

- Brand new Dramione recommendations: New(er) fics with beautiful storylines, incredibly lovable Dracos & Hermiones and interesting plots

- Throwback to fics we've mentioned before, but impacted us strongly, giving us all the feels and making us remember them often: Georgy and Diana each share the Dramione stories they think about regularly and read several times.

If you want to write to us about anything: a though, a suggestion, a recommendation or a wish, please do so at [email protected].

As for our Dramione Fanfics Masterlist, please click on the "About" section of this podcast, where Georgy diligently added it, as promised during the podcast.

We love you, we thank you, we hope you enjoy the recommendations and have a beautiful and enthusiastic start in 2024. Muah!

Georgy & Diana

Missed you sooo "muchly", dearest Dramione friends <3. Here's a special kind of episode for you in Valentine's month, because, truly, what a better depiction of love than our Draco & Hermione?

Why is this episode different? We focus on the most important moments in their relationship and their significance: from when he shows her his library, when they see each other's scars, when he asks for her forgiveness, when they save each other's lives, when they first touch (...and do other things ;)) ... over to when he gets his Weasley sweater, ... up to when they marry and eventually have kids and choose their names. 

After reading hundreds of Dramione masterpieces, we bring together these beautiful stepping stones in the Dramione relationship and fawn over them, like we usually do, because... they make our knees weak and our hearts melt. We cover over 20 of these moments and comment on why they are important, how we like them and remember fanfics that did a terrific job at describing them.

#excited for you to listen to this episode and let us know what milestone we've missed at [email protected]. Love you! 

Georgy & Diana

Welcome baaack, dearest Dramione fans from all over the world! To be more precise, you, our amazing listeners, come from 46 different countries. Isn't it awesome how Dramione brings all of us together? No matter the background, we all adore Hermione & Draco's love stories.

It's been 5 months since our last episode (OMG!) and we've done our homework. Georgy and I believe we haven't had an episode with SO many new fanfic recommendations... All truly wonderful, satisfying all kinds of tastes and some... truly God-tier Dramione fics.

You're in not for 1, not for 2, but for 20+ Dramione stories (actually, there must be 30+, but we don't want to make an overstatement).

So, here's what we cover:

- Fanfics we haven't mentioned before (they somehow didn't fit in our episodes' topics, or they belong to tropes that Georgy and Diana don't read as much, or they depicted Hermione and Draco differently than we see them... BUT they are good, well-written and pretty popular fics, which are absolutely worth mentioning and we wanted to make sure you know about them)

- Christmas fic recommendations ('tis the season)

- Fanfics we read recently and enjoyed very much (including a recently discovered must-read author for all Dramione fans out there)

We started this episode by reading the brilliant emails from you, but if you want to skip that part, simply start listening at around minute 40. 

If you would like to drop us a line, share with us a fic or a thought or a feeling, our hearts are more than happy to hear from you at [email protected]. 

Much, much love from us to you and may you start 2023 with a smile on your face, a light heart, good ideas, divine inspiration and deep insight. 

Hola bonbon! Did you miss some Dramione talk? Oh, so did we <3. 

We're back mid-summer with an episode focused on some truly lovable side-characters, which contribute exquisitely to some of the best Dramione fanfics. Don't you love a playful and irresistibly funny Theo, a snarky, but genuinely loyal Pansy, or an adorable Scorpius? 

All and more are packed in this (kind warning!) pretty long episode, full of amazing fanfics, wonderful characters and lots of jokes, fun and... a few heartfelt tears from one of us ;).

This is our last episode for the summer (#enjoythesun) and we will be back in September/October refreshed, with new fanfics, renewed energy and the same consuming passion for Dramione.

Write to us at [email protected] to tell us what you liked or disagreed on, what your favorite side characters are, what you've read lately or... just to say "hi". We love love love hearing from you!

Note: We started this episode by reading emails from you, lovelies, and it took us 41min to go through just 1/2 of them. We'll start the next episode with the rest of the wonderful emails from you, however, if you want to skip that part, fast fwd. to minute 41.

Enjoyyy! Much love from Georgy and Diana.

Hola dear Dramione fan! We, Diana and Georgy, are so excited to dedicate this entire episode to our favorite Hermiones. Yes, you hear that right… after talking extensively about the best Dracos, it's about time we talked about our favorite girl. 

You'll discover so, so many wonderful Hermione heroines in this episode, some brand new ones, which we haven't mentioned before, because we've been devouring Dramione fanfiction like crazy lately (Diana went through a tough time in her life and Dramione acts like medicine for her). 

Join us, as we talk about our favorite girl, why he love her so much, what we love about her and what makes her character in the respective fanfic so special. You'll just have a great time all around, not to be missed, as always. Truly, one of our best episodes yet, probably because... anything related to Hermione can't be anything less than brilliant.

Don't forget you can email us at [email protected] for any questions, suggestions, recommendations, access to The Dramione Masterlist of Recommendations or any other thought or need or secret wish that crosses your beautiful Dramione fan mind.

The next episode will be The Dramione Podcast's 1 year anniversary and we have a fun little surprise for you: A re-ranking of our top 10 favorite Dramione Fanfics from the first episode. See how much has changed since then and which are our favorite fanfics of all time, after reading more than 12 Million words of Dramione.

Much love always, yours,

Diana and Georgy

Welcome back, dearest Dramione fans <3! Ready for some Draco-and-Hermione-our-favorite-couple talk?

Not so fast, though, hehe: Before we discuss Dramione, we have a lovely (we think) and from-the-heart gift for you, our wonderful friends. It has been a request from some of our dear listeners <3 and honestly, it made so much sense, we had to fulfill this wish. What is that gift you may ask? You will just have to listen and find out. We promise it is so, so worth it. We (Georgy especially) worked on it assiduously from the past weeks, for it to be ready for this episode. It's also a thank-you from the bottom of our hearts, as we reached 5,000 plays with The Dramione Podcast exactly on Valentine's Day. Wooow and multiple yay-hurray! 

In this episode, we talk about beautiful Dramione stories we have been reading and have loved. 

The stories we cover this time are so many and diverse, there is no way you won’t find something you'll fall in love with. We have everything: From 1 chapter fics to longer stories, from Slytherin Hermione to Muggle AU with Daddy Draco (not that kind of Daddy, the other kind of Daddy, wink-wink), from Healer Draco to Therapist Narcissa, marriage law with a twist, purest of smuts, Voldemort wins au, and many more.

True, given there is no theme for this episode, the recommendations are unstructured (to Diana's chagrin), but they're colorful, wonderful and irresistible. Enjoy to the fullest!

We can’t wait to hear what you think about the episode or if you have any ideas of fics to read or any suggestions at all, you can write to us at [email protected]. 

With much love, Diana & Georgy.
