Podcast appearances and mentions of Harry Potter

Throughout the Draculae miniseries, about the Swedish and Icelandic translations of Dracula that played fast and loose with the original text, I've been wondering a couple of questions: why are cover versions of songs and remakes of films so normal and acceptable, whereas cover versions in book form cause such a stir? And do these Scandinavian Draculae count as fan fiction? And if not, why not? Fansplaining.com's Elizabeth Minkel explains what fan fiction can mean.Visit theallusionist.org/transformation for more information plus a transcript of the episode. And though this is the fourth and last part of the Draculae miniseries, it is more inspired by than directly connected to the other episodes, so you don't have to listen to them beforehand. But do listen to them, they're very fun and intriguing!Content note: this episode contains some references to (but not descriptions of) sexual content and sex slavery. There is also mention of J.K. Rowling.Sign up at theallusionist.org/donate to fund the continuing existence of this independent podcast.

Mark and Al share their mutual interest in fantasy novels. Is "high fantasy" fundamentally different than what enjoyed as kids? Did Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings and HBO's Game of Thrones show us that these big books are adaptable, or were they exceptions? We're anticipating the upcoming Mistborn/Cosmere adaptations, as we're both into Brandon Sanderson. We also talk about The Wheel of Time, Rings of Power, Earthsea, Shannara, Joe Abercrombie, Robin Hobb, Stephen R. Donaldson, Patrick Rothfuss, Tad Williams, and of course Harry Potter.

For years, Fawkes the Phoenix has been one of the biggest mysteries in Harry Potter. Why does he always appear exactly when Dumbledore needs him? Why can he seemingly ignore magical rules? And why were his feathers chosen for both Harry and Voldemort's wands? Today we're revisiting one of our oldest and most controversial Harry Potter theories—with new evidence from Fantastic Beasts and years of additional analysis. Could Fawkes actually be Dumbledore's Horcrux? #HarryPotter #HarryPotterTheory #SuperCarlinBrothers

Shaboozey sits down with Bobby to trace the unlikely path that led to one of the biggest songs in the world. He opens up about growing up in Northern Virginia, feeling isolated in school, and how Harry Potter inspired his imagination and made him want to create worlds of his own. He also shares the impact of his father’s journey from Nigeria and the lessons that shaped his ambition. Shaboozey reflects on recording his first song in high school, moving to Los Angeles, landing a record deal, battling imposter syndrome, and rebuilding after being dropped. He explains how “Old Town Road” affected his vision, why he rejected the “country hip-hop” label, and how he finally found the sound that felt authentic to him. Plus, he reveals the surprising story behind making “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” why he never wrote down a single lyric, how quickly it exploded, and what it has been like losing his anonymity after becoming a global star.

This week, we hope you can sing in Mermish or fire an arrow cleanly, because we're paying tribute to the great Albus Dumbledore. Join Andrew, Eric, Micah and Laura as they wrap the sixth book in the Harry Potter series! Welcome Slug Club Member Sam! Chapter-by-Chapter of Half-Blood Prince concludes with Chapter 30, "The White Tomb" Harry has developed a mantra of all of the remaining Horcruxes. Did we ever establish similar practices when we were younger? Could the rope ladder turning to snakes in Harry's dream actually be the Horcrux within him preventing him from obtaining the others? Harry makes some astute observations about Snape and Voldemort. Do we think it's a fair comparison? Pity for Draco: What does this say about Harry's character development? Is Dumbledore's funeral is as much about paying tribute to him as it is about a transfer of responsibility? Should Harry have accepted the offer to have Auror protection/assistance? Dumbledore is clearly beloved by the wizarding community. Is his funeral a reflection of the unity he was so desperately working toward? We celebrate and question the presence of certain characters who attend Dumbledore's funeral The Symbolism of The White Tomb On our Lynx Line, we asked our patrons how they would pay tribute to Dumbledore? Quizzitch: With an in-person attendance of only 2,000 people, what funeral took place in the UK during the 90's whose television audience is estimated to be 2.5 billion?

Why do Bellatrix and Narcissa apparate blocks away from Spinner's End? Why can't wizards simply teleport directly into Hogwarts? Why do some homes allow apparition while others don't? And why does everyone still need Floo Powder, Portkeys, and even Thestrals if teleportation exists? Today, we're diving into every clue throughout the series to finally explain how apparition really works, when and where you can do it, and how Neville Longbottom may have accidentally discovered a loophole that allowed Harry's supporters to bypass Hogwarts' greatest defense. #HarryPotter #HarryPotterTheory #SuperCarlinBrothers

This episode of Critical Magic Theory picks up where the last episode left off, this time handing the floor to the CMT community. Listeners push back, dig deeper, and refuse to agree — on whether Harry's flaws are his fault, on what standard we're even using to evaluate him, and on the question that generated the most heat: is he extraordinary? Four themes emerge from the conversation: Harry as a product of his environment, the impossible standard applied to a child, the tension between goodness as practice and goodness as grade, and the case, argued with a bevy of receipts, that Harry Potter is, actually, extraordinary. Prof weighs in throughout and closes without resolving the question. That's the point.

En octobre 2020, Jean-Alphonse Richard consacrait un épisode de "Confidentiel" à J. K. Rowling. Elle n'a jamais inventé Harry Potter. Elle le connaissait depuis l'enfance, habitait la maison d'à côté et se perdait dans la même forêt. Comme le petit sorcier, elle était meurtrie par son passé. Comme lui, elle était une survivante condamnée à avoir peur du bruit, de la lumière et de la foule. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

BONUS! Comedian Pete Holmes reveals why he became obsessed with hell and how the idea of eternal punishment forced him to question the version of Christianity he had inherited. He traces his journey from viewing God as a terrifying judge to discovering Joseph Campbell, Ram Dass, non-duality, and a radically different understanding of consciousness. Pete also shares his unforgettable Harry Potter analogy for why searching for physical evidence of God may be completely missing the point. SPONSORS!

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we discuss Harry's patronus lessons with Lupin. Gryffindor continues to dominate on the quidditch pitch and Sirius Black breaks into Hogwarts again. The trio go on their Shrieking Shack adventure and Harry tries and fails to protect himself and Sirius from the descending dementors at the lake. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:·      1:31 I went to Scotland! Here is one of the tour guides I really loved who showed me around the Harry Potter world in Edinburgh.·      7:26 Quick recap and Harry and Lupin's lessons. The boggart dementor should be smaller than the actual thing so we can have some differentiation. When Harry is falling through his memory in the presence of the dementor, I don't like the film version of the fade to black. I would rather see it through Harry's eyes and watch the memory bleed into his reality. Lupin is there every step of the way, and we should really begin to trust Lupin in this opening.·      26:18 Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw quidditch match. More dementors get on the field, but it turns out to be Malfoy. Lupin is still impressed with his production of a patronus. Afterward, they return to their dorms and celebrate. Black breaks back into Hogwarts when they go to bed, and he and Harry have a dramatic chase through the castle. We look into his eyes for the first time.·      41:06 Episode seven opens with studying for OWLs. Harry and Ron are trying ot study for divination, but it's hopeless. Harry goes into for his OWL and Trelawny has a real prediction. There is clearly something afoot…·      43:26 The Shrieking Shack. This is the final sequence of this episode, and it is of course the famous Shrieking Shack chase. This scene should have the audience hating Sirius and turning on Lupin. We should see the horrible image of Lupin helping up Sirius and hugging him like a brother, but we soon learn the truth. Lupin transforms and the black dog defends the trio. Sirius collapses at the lake and Harry tries to defend him against the hundreds of dementors, but it's no use.  ThePotterDiscussion@gmail.comthepotterdiscussion.comNox

Severus Snape is the Half-Blood Prince, but did he steal the info from James Potter?  Today we're investigating one of the strangest Harry Potter theories we've ever attempted: Was James Potter the REAL Half-Blood Prince? From hidden clues in Snape's handwriting, to Lily Evans' extraordinary potions talent, to the timeline surrounding Levicorpus, we uncover a surprisingly convincing case that Snape may have stolen far more than a nickname. It sounds ridiculous... until the evidence starts piling up. #HarryPotter #HalfBloodPrince #SuperCarlinBrothers

Felony ep. 830 Roger Ley has self-published eight novels and one anthology of speculative stories. He was born and educated mainly in London, but spent some of his formative years in Saudi Arabia. Later, he worked as an engineer in the oilfields of North Africa and in the North Sea before starting a career in higher education teaching computer-aided engineering. His early articles appeared in publications including The Guardian, Reader's Digest, The Oldie, and Best of British. His short stories have been published on a multiplicity of websites and broadcast on BBC Radio. He lives in Suffolk (UK).

Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

Xbox can't help itself; it finds rakes out of nowhere to step on, and its all self-inflicted. There won't be any trips in the Tardis anytime soon, and who is to blame? George Miller wants to sell Mad Max, but why? And Fox buys Roku, which feels oddly familiar.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.While it may come as no surprise, the biggest Marvel news this week is still just as exciting as it is obvious with the revelation that Chris Evans will indeed appear in Secret Wars. While not officially confirmed by Marvel, the news broke via a social media post from March 26, that is just now gaining notice, with the actor himself telling Instagram user @comicconmomsi, "I can tell you that...I start work on the next one in a couple of months, I can tell you that," in a video message. That tracks with the projected August production starting date for Secret Wars we've discussed previously.While rumors and speculation are typically not our forte here, the rumor mill surrounding The Batman II cast warrants some attention. In May, we discussed headlines from sources like Variety and The Wrap that seemingly confirmed Sebastian Stan had been cast as Harvey Dent, as he had long been rumored to be, with Scarlett Johansson and Charles Dance announced as Dent's wife and father, respectively. In hindsight, those headlines resulted from Matt Reeve's social media post where he confirmed and welcomed a number of actors as part of the film but did not actually reveal any roles. In the last week, industry insider Jeff Sneider has suggested that his sources claim that Stan will instead play Victor Zsasz and Brian Tyree Henry is set to portray Harvey. Steven Spielberg has returned to the blockbuster arena for the first time in eight years with Disclosure Day, his UFO sci-fi thriller starring Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor, which opened to approximately $44 million domestically and $93.9 million globally, making it his biggest opening weekend ever for an original film. Meanwhile, Obsession continues its extraordinary run, adding another $19 million in week five for a domestic total of $188.3 million. Spielberg's $115 million production earned strong reviews and a B CinemaScore.Sony has released the trailer for The Social Reckoning, Aaron Sorkin's sequel to The Social Network. Jeremy Strong stars as Mark Zuckerberg alongside Mikey Madison, Jeremy Allen White, and Bill Burr. The film opens October 9.Peter Sarsgaard has joined the Season 3 cast of HBO's The Last of Us in a recurring role. He will play an original character named Amon, one of the leaders of the Seraphites. Production is currently on a planned hiatus to accommodate World Cup matches filming in Vancouver.It: Welcome to Derry writer Jason Fuchs has been tapped to write a new untitled Transformers script for Paramount and Hasbro.Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, and Ice Cube are in talks to return for 24 Jump Street at Sony Pictures, reuniting most of the original production team.Apple TV+ has renewed horror comedy Widow's Bay for a second season ahead of its season finale this week, and has signed creator Katie Dippold to a multiyear overall deal.Jason Momoa has made clear he has no interest in a PG-13 Lobo solo movie. In an interview with Collider, he said if he makes a standalone Lobo film, it will be rated R, full stop, though he's open to appearing in ensemble DCU projects in the meantime.Peter Serafinowicz has been cast as Peeves the Poltergeist in HBO's Harry Potter series.Anya Taylor-Joy has joined the cast of the upcoming Lord of the Rings prequel The Hunt for Gollum, playing an elf character named Seren.Marvel Comics will publish a one-shot crossover this September titled The Muppets Take the Marvel Universe, celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Muppet Show by teaming Muppets characters with iconic Marvel heroes.Mark Hamill is joining Peacock's Twisted Metal for Season 3 in a recurring role, playing the father of Sweet Tooth.Chris Sanders, co-creator and co-director of the original Lilo & Stitch animated film, will direct Disney's live-action sequel Lilo & Stitch 2. Shooting is expected to begin later this year.

Is Harry Potter a good person? A good friend? A victim? Extraordinary?We heard from over 600 listeners, and the results were more chaotic than you might expect. In this episode of Critical Magic Theory, Professor Julian Wamble digs into the survey data to explore what our answers to these four questions reveal not just about Harry, but about the standards we hold him to. From the Dursleys' cupboard to the horcrux hunt, we examine what Harry actually learned growing up and why so many of the behaviors we criticize in him trace directly back to Privet Drive.PRE-ORDER: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity, and Harry PotterBarnes & Noble: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry PotterBookshop: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry Potter Amazon: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry Potter

Featured Guest: Raegan Kirkpatrick, Marketing & Promotions Specialist, Blumenthal Arts Lights up, dolls — because Dishing with Buff Faye is BACK after a brief hiatus, and honey, we've got BIG NEWS!Buff Faye and Giovonni D. Diamond return to the studio to celebrate a major milestone: Dishing with Buff Faye has once again been named one of the Top Drag Queen Podcasts in the Nation by Feedspot for the third year in a row! This year, the podcast landed in the Top 30 alongside some of the biggest names in drag entertainment, including RuPaul's Drag Race queens. That's right, baby—we're famous!Of course, Gio can't let a celebration happen without bringing some romantic confusion to the table. He dishes all about a new man named Miles that he's "kind of" dating, while Buff remains highly skeptical that Miles actually exists. The tea is hot, the stories are questionable.The duo also dives into Pride Month celebrations happening across the Carolinas and beyond. Buff reflects on the history and importance of Pride, the legacy of Stonewall, and why visibility and community matter now more than ever. They chat about the recent release of Buff on the Streets, upcoming Pride celebrations including Rock Hill Pride, and the growing number of small-town Pride festivals popping up throughout the region. From Greensboro Pride to Pineville Pride to Huntersville Pride, Buff celebrates the incredible progress being made in communities of every size and with the big Charlotte Pride later this summer. Somewhere along the way, Gio delivers his best Dracula impersonation and then abruptly rushes off to his date.Then it's time for the main event.  Special guest Raegan Kirkpatrick from Blumenthal Arts joins the conversation to discuss the exciting collaboration between Buff Faye and Blumenthal Arts for the upcoming production of Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors. Buff shares stories from the wildly successful and completely sold-out Dracula Drag Brunch of Terrors, where lucky audience members won tickets to opening night on July 7. Tickets available online at BlumenthalArts.org/DraculaRaegan shares more about Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, a fast-paced, campy, pansexual comedy that puts a fresh spin on the classic vampire tale. The conversation expands into Blumenthal Arts' longstanding commitment to ensuring the arts are accessible, welcoming, and representative of all communities. Listeners also learn about Out on the Town, the organization's LGBTQ+ social group open to everyone, and the many events, gatherings, and opportunities that help build community through the arts. Together, Buff and Raegan discuss the importance of telling everyone's stories on stage and highlight the many LGBTQ+ initiatives, partnerships, and community programs supported by Blumenthal Arts.  Before wrapping up, Buff and Raegan preview the incredible season ahead at Blumenthal Arts, including Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, Oh, Mary!, Dirty Dancing, The Wiz, Phantom of the Opera, Beauty and the Beast, Harry Potter, Heathers, and more.   From Pride celebrations and podcast rankings to vampires, theater, and community building, this episode is funny, informative and fabulously unfiltered. Hit play, get into the fantasy, and start Dishing with Buff Faye. Eat it Up!

If you've got a scene that feels flat and you can't figure out why, this episode will help you diagnose what's really going on—so you know whether the scene is working, needs strengthening, or may not belong in your story at all.You know that feeling when a scene just isn't quite working, but you can't put your finger on why? The sentences are clean. The dialogue sounds right. Line by line, it reads fine… and yet the scene just sits there.Here's the thing: a lot of the time, the problem isn't your prose. It's that nothing meaningful changes in the scene—or the change that does happen doesn't affect the larger story. And once you can see that, the problem becomes much easier to fix.In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the most common reasons a scene falls flat: the missing or weak value shift. I'll explain what a value shift is, why every scene needs one, and how to tell the difference between a change that matters to your story and one that simply fills space.In the episode, you'll hear me talk about:[02:25] What a “value shift” actually is, and why a scene without one will feel flat no matter how good the writing is[04:25] Why a scene can technically have an arc of change and still fall flat[07:00] The three questions I ask to find the value shift in any scene—and the one that matters most[00:00] The value shift mistake that quietly muddies your scenes (and the simple fix to get instant clarity) [15:50] Why a scene packed with action can still feel thin, and what to look for underneath the surfaceYou'll walk away with a simple three-question check you can run on any scene to see what changed, why it matters, and where to revise first if the scene still isn't working.

Kevin, Chantae, CJ, and Natasha are closing out Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with chapters 19–22, and the ending is doing a LOT.Sirius Black finally tells his side of the story, Peter Pettigrew gets exposed, Remus Lupin's secret blows up, Snape turns peak hater, and Harry gets the closest thing he's had to real family — only for it to slip away almost immediately. Then Hermione pulls out the Time-Turner and suddenly we're saving hippogriffs, dodging Dementors, and asking why Hogwarts is always one bad adult decision away from disaster.After the recap, we're getting into the bigger conversation: did Harry choose mercy, justice, or just the possibility of having family? Because letting Peter live was morally understandable… but whew, the consequences are nasty.Plus, we talk Sirius, Lupin, Snape, Dumbledore's chaos-management style, Hermione carrying the plot in her backpack, and why this book's ending hits harder than people remember.

This week on Mostly Film, we're sorting through a fresh batch of trailers in LIST IT or NIX IT, including The Last House, Gatto, Heart of the Beast, Social Reckoning, I Want Your Sex, and Whalefall. Which ones earn a spot on the Letterboxd watchlist, and which ones get left behind?In What We've Been Watching, Jonathan checks out everything from Masters of the Universe and In the Grey to a nostalgic return to Spy Kids and Spy Kids 2, while JP revisits a pair of beloved franchises with Raiders of the Lost Ark and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.Plus, we break down a packed week of movie news, including Chris Evans' reported return in Avengers: Secret Wars, new details on The Batman: Part II, George Miller's plans for more Mad Max, a Hit Man series coming to Netflix, a surprise Fox-Roku merger, and Steven Spielberg's record-breaking success with Disclosure Day. We also discuss honorary Oscars for Ridley Scott and Glenn Close, a possible Jimmy Olsen and Gorilla Grodd series, and why Jesse Eisenberg turned down The Social Reckoning.All that and more on another episode of Mostly Film—where the takes are hot, the watchlists are growing, and the movie news never stops.

A little less Michael Gambon and a little more Hedwig makes for a slightly better five minutes for Alice, Martha, and special guest Shut Up Tim to discuss this week! Harry makes his way to the Burrow, via side-along (?) apparition. You'd think Mrs. Weasley would know if Harry Potter was in her house, and you'd also think maybe she wouldn't encourage the kids to light random newspapers on fire in the house.. Please consider supporting us on Patreon! www.patreon.com/realweirdsisters New episodes are released every Monday and special topics shows are released periodically.

Our guest is Brittany Drake, campaigns director for The Protego Foundation.

They also talk about how the use of fictional creatures and characters can garner an audience's imagination and empathy for animals.Brittany Drake is the campaigns director for The Protego Foundation. She has helped with countless campaigns and seen several achieve success including Starbucks' dropping of the vegan upcharge for nondairy milks, Harvard and UMass closing their monkey labs, and Farmer John closing their Los Angeles slaughterhouse.

Snape teaches DADA in Lupin's absence, his first lesson being werewolves. How interesting…·      18:07 Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff. This is the most intense quidditch match to date.
