Rank Heresy

Dumbledore tells us a story in Half-blood Prince about how Tom Riddle Sr. was conceived and how he ended up in Wool's Orphanage. But what really happened? Join Vinelle and The Carnivorous Muffin as they debate the minute details of everything we know. They also talk about how people mispronounced names in Harry Potter and dysentery. 

Tom Riddle's Horcruxes serve as important MacGuffins for the last two books of the Harry Potter franchise. Much to do is made about finding and destroying these objects in book 6 and especially book 7. However, a terrifying question exists, were any of them really Horcruxes and how do we know? 

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle watch Bølgen (The Wave) (2015), a Norwegian blockbuster that was heavily marketed and applaueded by the country for being a Norwegian home grown disaster film where the disaster is in Norway.

When Voldemort successfully resurrects himself in the spring of 1995, he's a man with red snake eyes, no nose, no hair, and he looks like that child eating monster in Pan's Labyrinth. Was this what he looked like in 1981 and the years in which he was Voldemort before then? Dumbledore says yes, we say no. Tune in to find out.

We're back with yet another murder mystery and this time it's the question of who really murdered the Riddle family. The answer will shock you.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle return to discuss the murder of Hezpibah Smith and how, you know, Tom Riddle may not have actually done this one. A murder mystery listing out the known facts, the suspects, and the very biased report from one Albus Dumbledore

Nicholas Flamel, creator of the Philosopher's Stone who kept it safe for five centuries, was remarkably cooperative when Albus Dumbledore said to him, "That British dark wizard who died ten years ago is after it, I think you should give it to me to protect."He was even more cooperative when, after all the trouble they'd gone through to protect it, Dumbledore suggested it be destroyed.The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle have a theory: Nicholas Flamel is dead at the beginning of the book, and Dumbledore took the Stone.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle discuss vampires, the Volturi secret, and how it all actually makes sense.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle give their interpretation of who Tom Riddle even was, and what he was trying to accomplish.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle watch episode 2 of "Loki" a show they know very little about and have never seen.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle begin watching "Loki" a show they know very little about and have never seen. They discuss thoughts before and afterwards.

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle discuss Padmé Amidala, who was awfully willing to marry genocidal monks for a supposed champion of human rights.

The power of love is a wonderful, superbly powerful, explain-all power that... is a bit too convenient and inconsistent to really hold up to closer scrutiny. At least, that is our opinion, which we explain in somewhat rambly detail in this episode of our podcast.

Few, if any, female leads have been ridiculed more in the 21st century than Twilight's Bella Swan. She's flat, she's boring, she's not (insert female character the critic likes better). Does she deserve the criticism?

The Carnivorous Muffin and Vinelle introduce Star Wars, including what it's all about, what Star Wars will even mean on this show, and a little bit of the heresy

An introduction to Harry Potter, what it is about if you completely missed the past twenty years, a lot of discussion on Dumbledore, and the heresy.
