In what is possibly the most pivotal chapter of the entire Harry Potter series, Alice and Martha fully eulogize Cedric and reflect on the life that was taken from us too soon. Wormtail follows a recipe moste evile to resurrect his master, and sadly, "it" doesn't drown. Lord Voldemort has returned, and Harry's life will never be the same again. Don't worry though; despite the heavy topic, there's still time for real weird questions, rabbit hole conversations, and, of course, plenty of humor.

Bill is back, acting cooler than ever, Snuffles sends his best wishes, and no one but Hermione seems to be able to remember that Muggle technology goes haywire at Hogwarts. Luckily, there are spells to point Harry in the right direction, literally! Alice and Martha also admire Cedric's true Hufflepuff characteristics and consider the ways in which Harry could have benefitted from a longer friendship with him. Devastation looms, but for the moment, everyone is grinning...

As 2017 comes to a close, we want to offer you a chance to celebrate the holiday season Potter-style. Join us as we rank Harry's seven Christmases with returning guest Haley Strong (@hstrong_), write New Year's resolutions for some of your favorite (and least favorite) Wizarding World characters, and sort the characters of A Charlie Brown Christmas with a brand new guest host who may emerge as the Real Weirdo of the episode. We are also very happy to welcome musical guests Kanna Ann Anderson (@KannaAnn94) and Peeves the Poltergeist, as well as non-musical guest Shut Up Tim (@ShutUpTim), to perform song parodies throughout the show. 

Thank you so much for listening to the show. We wish you a wonderful holiday season!

Alice and Martha snuffle around as they recap The Dream, which rivals both sisters' strangest dream stories and somehow, they find a way to relate all this back to the Unabomber.

This chapter art may not be Alice’s favorite, but the chapter makes up for it with opportunities for plenty of Dobby and Winky impressions, discussions of Ron’s problem with Hermione’s social activism, and the symbolism of Barty Crouch, Sr. Plus, Harry is super awkward with Krum and Snape trolls Harry pretty hard, so what’s not to like?

As the title suggests, this chapter features the return of Padfoot... er, Snuffles, that is. It also features highly questionable teaching methods by Snape, frustrating interactions between Ron and Hermione, and lots of chicken.

There is a tragic lack of Hedwig in this chapter, but that doesn't stop Alice and Martha from paying homage to the great white bird through silence and song. Also in this episode is debate of what underwater animal is the most useful Animagus, controversy over Harry's willingness to leave Hermione behind, and, of course, impressions of Dobby, Myrtle, and Fleur.
