Harry Potter Book Club

We are finally entering the Chamber of Secrets!  Join us as we talk to Moaning Myrtle and make our way into the hidden chamber!

Tag along as we "follow the spiders" and enter Aragog's lair alongside Harry and Ron. 

Should Fudge have followed the spiders?  Tune in to hear our opinion on the Minister of Magic and much more. 

Tag along as we explore chapter 13, The Very Secret Diary.  We talk about the etymology of a new name, Voldemort's psyche, and once again we're debating whether or not Dumbledore is using legilimens on students.  Listen along and feel free to email us at hpbcfanmail@gmail.com or comment on Instagram @hpbcpodcast.

Join us as we duel Malfoy, explore Snape's motivations for participating in the Dueling Club, and theorize about Neville Longbottom "basically being a squib".  

Join us as we enter the Slytherin common room to interrogate Malfoy!

Join us as we discuss Dumbledore's psyche, more name etymology, and of course Dobby's rogue bludger!

So, really....what events have to take place for a Quidditch match to actually be called off?!  Join us as we think through this and other moments in this fun chapter of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

The conclusion of our discussion of chapter 10 "The Writing on the Wall."

The gang discusses Chapter 9, "The Writing on the Wall."  Join us as we examine Snape's psyche, discuss Filch's love for Mrs. Norris, and think about who is the heir of Slytherin.  

The Chamber of Secrets has been opened.  Enemies of the heir, beware!

This one is sure to give you nightmares!  Join us as we discuss the Basilisk, Gilderoy Lockhart, and dirty blood.  

Mail call!  A howler arrives for Ron and Harry.  Harry is accused of seeking the limelight, starting a fan club, and giving out signed photographs.  Meanwhile, we discuss the surprisingly complex character of Gilderoy Lockhart.

Ouch!  Harry and Ron narrowly escape the Whomping Willow. Join us as we reenter Hogwarts for Harry's second year as a Gryffindor.

Travel with us to Diagon Alley to meet the famed Gilderoy Lockhart.  

Harry, awakened from a dream in which someone is tapping at his cage, peers out of his barred windows to see his best friend, Ron Weasley, inside a car suspended outside of his window.  Driving are Ron's older twin brothers, Fred and George, who have agreed to help break Harry out of Privet Drive.  Join us as we are introduced to the Weasley's home, The Burrow, and meet a few new characters.

The gang began talking after our initial recording of Chapter 2 and decided we had a couple of points to add.  Enjoy this short bonus episode of Chapter 2 of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets"

Join the gang as we are formally introduced to Dobby.

Forced to spend his birthday preparing for a boring dinner party for Uncle Vernon's work associate, Harry retreats to his room to find someone (or is it something?) is sitting on his bed.  Join the HPBC as we begin our journey into the Chamber of Secrets.

The gang discusses questions sent in by you, the listeners!

We made it to the end of "The Sorcerer's Stone" and now meet the man with two faces.  But, it wasn't Snape.  It wasn't even Voldemort. 

The HPBC journeys through the trap door and discusses whether Dumbledore intends to let Harry, Ron, and Hermione face the challenges on the other side.  

"The forest," he repeated, and he didn't sound quite as cool as usual. "We can't go in there at night- there's all sorts of things in there- werewolves, I heard." Join us as we meet Firenze and the other centaurs and travel through the Forbidden Forest in search of a wounded unicorn.  

The gang discusses their thoughts on the fanmade movie: Voldemort-Origins of the Heir.
