Podcasts about dumbledore's army

This week on #WizardTeam and The Time Room, we are joined by our friends, founder of Wizards in Space magazine Olivia Dolphin, and writer, dancer, and comedian Proma Khosla. In this episode, they ask how Harry’s story would change if Marietta never turned in Dumbledore's Army. Let us know who you think is the MVP and who is benched in this new timeline. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wizardteam/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wizardteam/support

We’re sliding down the back half of the Harry Potter series with Year Five at Hogwarts: Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix. Things get considerably darker for Harry and his wizard pals with the introduction of a sinister new villain in Dolores Umbridge and the interference of the Ministry of Magic at Hogwarts School. In this episode, we discuss how free societies can descend into Fascism, and how we see that process mirrored through Umbridge’s changes at Hogwarts. But rarely does this happen without some backlash—we’ll compare youth activism and resistance movements like the White Rose in 20th century Germany to the emergence of Dumbledore’s Army, and how young people often move the dial on larger social movements. — We will be donating our Patreon earnings for the next two months to the Transgender Law Center, the largest national trans-led organization advocating for a world in which all people are free to define themselves and their futures.

In 2016, I put out an episode about how JK Rowling’s themes in the Harry Potter series inspired a generation of progressive activists including Jackson Bird, who was the spokesperson for the Harry Potter Alliance. Jackson is also trans. Recently, JK Rowling has alienated many of her fans and supporters with her views on transgender rights. I catch up with Jackson Bird to discuss how he’s handling the cognitive dissonance of being inspired by the messages in the Harry Potter books while feeling profound disappointment in JK Rowling.

For the first ever Perennials Podcast live show, I sat down with Dr. Jill Cermele, professor of Psychology at Drew University, who teaches a course called "The Psychology of Harry Potter." We talked all about what J.K. Rowling's fantasy series can teach us about growing up, getting wise and trying to live a good life. What can we learn about identity exploration from the Sorting Hat and Hogwarts houses? How can we laugh at our own boggarts, conjure protective patronuses, and avoid counterproductive magical thinking? What makes some people join Dumbledore's Army while others become Death Eaters? Why is it important for us to see ourselves and others in all our complexity, not as all-good or all-bad? Find out in today's episode!  Thank you to Short Stories Book Shop & Community Hub in Madison, NJ for hosting and to Andy Feldman for running sound and mixing this episode! You can learn more about today's episode over at the Shownotes page.

In this discussion with Ms. Sarah Miller and Mr. Wes Schantz, we consider (a) the developing relationships in the text, their increasing complexity, and J.K. Rowling's and Harry Potter's (and even Albus Dumbledore's) increasing focus on them; (b) parallels and contrasts between Tom Riddle and Harry Potter's powers, natures, upbringings, and choices and even perspectives on personal responsibility; and ultimately (c) horcruxes, how they relate to tension between a desire for power vs. a desire for companionship, and the difference between Dumbledore's Army and the Death Eaters' perspectives on free-will and fate. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support

PotterCast 273 is the first of our episodes from LeakyCon Dublin! And this time we have Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Katie Leung (Cho Chang), Alfie Enoch (Dean Thomas), and Afshan Azad (Padma Patil), here to tell us all about life as the Harry Potter films' Dumbledore's Army. Great stories from their time filming - a must-listen!

Welcome to episode #19 of Wizardwatch.  In this installment we welcome back collaborator extraordinaire, Darlynne Overbaugh, the festival director for Ithaca's "Wizarding Weekend" 2017.  This time through we get a closer look at Darlynne the Harry Potter fan during "inside the Pensieve" as she reveals what spell she would choose if her wand could only cast a single bit of magic.  Darlynne explores the power of listening during Voldemort's Corner and wraps up with a sneak preview of activities at this years's festival.  We hear about the WW listening base across the globe which reaches nearly every habitable continent and stay tuned for an excellent offer from Darlynne to collaborate on a festival idea of your own.  Harry and the Potters take us out with "Dumbledore's Army" for the wizard rock song segment.  See you at the festival! 

Hermione, Ron, and Luna get to know each other a bit better and lay the groundwork for Dumbledore's Army as ADVENTURE tackles the Harry Potter series!

Five years after Harry left Hogwarts, we apparate back into the Wizarding World, this time following Newt Scamander and some other fresh faces around 1920s New York. We talk about the mythology of the book from which this movie draws its name, the future of the 5 parts Beasts series and the possibility that Dumbledore's Army was simply hidden up his sleevey. We attempt to match wizard wits, with Jay roundly trouncing AJ in his knowledge of the Harry Potter mythos and his ability to pronounce the charms and spells. AJ is bad at that. So settle in with a warm butter beer and wrap your cloak of invisibility tightly around you (neither of which make an appearance in this movie, we are sad to say) and enjoy listening to two NoMajs (or muggles, if you prefer) talk about Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them!   Email us your thoughts, questions or hate mail to cinemasesh@gmail.com   Follow our social media antics! https://twitter.com/CinemaSesh  https://www.instagram.com/cinemasesh/

How much does an author's point of view influence her stories? And do those stories in turn influence us? Professor Anthony Gierzynski argues that reading Harry Potter can make people more tolerant of diversity, and more resistant to unreasonable authority. Andrew Slack, creator of the Harry Potter Alliance, explains how JK Rowling inspired him to want to change the world. And the HPA's Jackson Bird explains how being a political activist changed him in ways he never expected.  ** This is part 6 in a 6-part series on magic and fantasy.**Learn more about your ad choices.

In The Hog's Head, Educational Decree #24, Dumbledore's Army

The Chapter Titles Were So Good 5.18 - Dumbledore’s Army In which Death Eaters laugh and eat a salad, and a little bit of magic goes a long way. iTunes (subscribe, rate, and review)             RSS feed (if you’re some kind of fancypants)

I started with a chord progression and then added A melody. Then I started making the melodies and added chords and other things in the background. There really is no main Instrument in my piece. It is split up among all of them. The title of my piece is Dumbledore's Army. I think it tells the story of the final duel in Harry Potter between Voldemort and the death eaters, and Dumbledore's army and others.
