The Hogwarts Professor comment threads have been jumping so Nick Jeffery and John Granger decided to dedicate a conversation to a review of the Greatest Hits in the last week (to do a complete review yourself, click on ‘Activity' in the left margin of the Hogwarts Professor Substack home page).After their reviewing the remarkably global and growing audience of Rowling Readers — 36 countries, 46 states! — and tracking The Presence's location — her yacht seems to be in Fiji but she is touring Levesden Studios? — Nick and John read out fifteen comment subjects and discuss the merits, deficiencies, and promise of each.The lede story is the theory shared by Jaclyn Hayes that Cormoran Strike and the late Charlotte Campbell were half-siblings with Jonny Rokeby in common as their absentee father. From her notes: I think Charlotte was blackmailed (via threat of exposing the relatedness btw her and Cormoran) into marrying Jago to provide him a male heir. Perhaps their relatedness is even an open secret in Charlotte's family, similar to the “secret” relatedness of Decima and Rupert in THM (another parallel). Charlotte was forbidden from telling Cormoran about the blackmail, but since she's conniving and obsessed with him, she uses their unexpected encounter at the Paralympics gala to drop hints about her predicament, hoping he'll solve the mystery and save her or take her back once she's fulfilled the terms of her marriage/birth agreement with Jago. She then orchestrates another encounter with Cormoran to drop more hints-- this time at Franco's, which she knows will trigger the memory of her father's outrage at seeing her and Cormoran dating again. She hopes Cormoran will realize her father was angry because he knew they were related, not simply because he thinks Cormoran wasn't good enough for her. She then tells Coromoran things would be different if he'd taken the job her father offered him (calling to mind the job Tara gives Rupert to keep him quiet in THM), and says she found out she was pregnant at Tara's house and later “lost” (not aborted) the baby. Read the whole thing. Ed Shardlow's response, in which he points out that the hallmark given to silver and DNA testing of human beings have a lot in common, and Tamspells and Jaclyn Hayes discussion of Strike's dreams in previous books give the Strike:Charlotte::Rupert:Decima theory some heft. Cheryl Rose Orrocks asked for help with research she is doing on a possible divine marker, mythologically divine at least, being placed in each book at the appearance of that novel's killer. The only holes in her theory at the time Nick and John recorded their conversation were Troubled Blood and Running Grave — and Catherine has since posted a neat solution for Strike 5. Check that out and please share the missing god or goddess from Running Grave!Nick and John also review and discuss:* Ed Shardlow's idea that the characters creating narratives inside Rowling-Galbraith stories are perhaps best understood as creating their stories as Rowling writes hers, i.e., inspired by Lake material and crafted with the tools in their Sheds;* Vicky's thank you to Dr Fimi for the Ursula Le Guin quotation;* Ed Shardlow's ‘RL Mystery' with back-up from Tamspells and J. S. Maleksen;* Cheryl Rose Orrocks' YouTube notes about the Dirty Bomb Theory conversation (and just how wrong John is about Carmen the opera and Carmen Ellacott); and* Answers to listener requests for more information — all of which can be found in the Links section below!In the week to come, John pledges to post his Hallmarked Man Names exegesis, Nick is working on his review of Aurora Leigh, the supposed template of Ink Black Heart (and the only book ever confirmed by Rowling as such), they will record their Part Two ring charting this weekend, and John is reorganizing his 2017 seven week online course — Wizard Reading Formula — for which class Paid Subscribers will get a greater than 50% discount.John and Nick thank everyone listening and especially those active on the comment threads and taking part in the Hallmarked Man Ring Reading Workshop!Links to Subjects Discussed in the Conversation Above:Cheryl Rose Orrocks: Can you let me know the title and author of the book about Gothic elements?The one John used for Harry Potter's Bookshelf was Patterns of fear in the Gothic novel, 1790-1830 by Ann Tracy, now only ‘in print' via a Kindle version.John read from his much longer Harry Meets Hamlet and Scrooge: Harry Potter's Hogwarts Adventures as the Gateway to English Literature in the conversation above, in which the list of subjects is spelled out (e.g., the castle, supernatural atmosphere, horror, isolation, subterranean passages, fragmentation and reunion, prophecy, ancestral curse, tainted blood, bond of blood, graveyard, corpses, Decay of Aristocratic Privilege, Rise of Bourgeoisie, forest, memories, dreams, found book, doppelgangers, scar or tell-tale mark, mysterious stranger, confused origin, night, mist and fog, distant past, death,, etc.).John also recommends The Handbook of Gothic Literature, ed. Marie Mulvy-Roberts, and The Cambridge Companion to Gothic Fiction, ed. Jerrold Hogle.Who is the mystery writer John was talking about who killed a women when she was an adolescent?Anne Perry, author of the Thomas and Charlotte Pitt and William Monk series of historical detective fiction. John recommends Anne Perry and the Murder of the Century, the book written by the journalist who out'd Perry as a convicted murderer writing murder mysteries. Perry died in 2023. J. S. Maleksen I too enjoyed this post, immensely. Can someone recommend a version of Cupid and Psyche and other relevant works of mythology for a Striker who assiduously avoided mythology through seven years of post-secondary education. I'm willing to gut it out in order to understand Rowling's work. TIA.John shared his favorites in the conversation above — Hamilton's Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes, Graves' The Greek Myths, Powell's Classical Myth, and Schwab's Gods and Heroes: Myths and Epics of Ancient Greece but Dr Dimitra Fimi responded in the thread today:It's a really difficult question this, and yet it shouldn't be. But the truth is that there is no contemporary authoritative collection of Greek/Classical mythological retellings that's up-to-date with recent scholarship, etc. Catherine recommends Hamilton's book below, which is still good in many respects, but these earlier compilations (like Bulfinch's too) often synthesize different versions of mythological narratives, and omit some interesting variations. My recommendations are a bit heavier on the scholarly side of things, but still readable (the issue will be getting hold of them, but I provide links where possible):1) Classical Myth by Barry B. Powell - as implied by the astronomical price on Amazon.uk (https://amzn.to/3JYkLfF) this is mostly available second-hand now, but there is a scanned version via Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/classicalmyth0000powe (you'll need to create a free account, but once you do you can log in and borrow the book digitally to read)2) Early Greek Myth: A Guide to Literary and Artistic Sources (2 Volumes) by Timothy Gantz is great, and at least easier to get hold of. It gives the tales and their versions as well as an overview of their sources. The Amazon price of Vol. 1, for example, is a bit more accessible: https://amzn.to/4oTFKQ1For those interested in the de profundis interpretation of classical myth, see The Door in the Sky: Coomaraswamy on Myth and Meaning and Symbolism in Greek Mythology by Paul Diel.You can find the post about Beedle the Bard that Dr Fimi discussed in her conversation with Nick and John at her Substack, ‘A Kind of Elvish Craft:' “You must've heard of Babbitty Rabbitty!”: Secondary World Fairy Tales in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter Series This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit hogwartsprofessor.substack.com/subscribe

Brian Walshe, a Massachusetts man headed to trial for the murder and dismemberment of his wife, Ana, has pleaded guilty to two of the three charges he faces. Walshe admitted to misleading police officers and unlawful conveyance of a human body. He continues to deny the first-degree murder charge against him. The trial is scheduled to begin on December 1st. FOX News Contributor and criminal defense attorney Joshua Ritter shares his expert legal analysis and explains what listeners can expect to see in the upcoming trial.

The case of Brian Walshe took a dramatic turn as breaking news revealed a sudden, unexpected shift inside the courtroom. In a move that stunned legal analysts and true crime followers alike, Walshe pled guilty to charges involving the disposal of his wife Ana Walshe's body and interfering with the police investigation — yet he continues to deny murdering her. This unusual strategy has set off a wave of questions about what really happened inside the couple's Massachusetts home and how this plea might reshape the trial ahead. During a detailed legal discussion, experts broke down how this tactic mirrors strategies used in other high-profile cases, including the Adam Montgomery case. By pleading guilty to the lesser charges, Walshe's defense appears to be attempting to block or limit the introduction of key evidence — particularly the chilling Google searches that prosecutors say reveal premeditation. Searches spanning December 27th through January 2nd included disturbing queries about divorce, how to dispose of a body, and related topics. These searches, combined with evidence of dismemberment and blood in the basement, form the backbone of the prosecution's narrative. But with Walshe denying murder, the case enters legally complex territory. The defense may argue accident, panic, or even third-party involvement in an attempt to create reasonable doubt. However, experts question whether a jury will overlook the sequence of actions that followed Ana's disappearance — the hacksaw purchase, the cleaning supplies, the disposal of remains, and the timeline of late-night online searches. As jury selection moves forward, the stakes could not be higher. Prosecutors must now decide how to present their case without overstepping what the plea agreement allows, while the defense faces the enormous challenge of explaining behavior that appears inexplicably calculated. With no recovered body and so many unanswered questions, the trial promises to be one of the most closely watched true crime stories of the year — a haunting blend of mystery, forensic evidence, and unfolding courtroom drama. #truecrime #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #breakingnews #trialcoverage #justice #truecrimenews #missingperson #courtcases #criminallaw Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The final episode before we start our holiday beer festivities. A friend of Martin's gave us three beers from Lithuanian. Volfas Engelman has over 340 beers listed on Untapped. This is part of their Alaus Laiskai or Beer Letters series. We got to try 100% Cryo Hops IPA, a 5.7% AVB IPA. Next up is Funky Lambic, a 5.5% AVB sour lambic style beer. Finally, we get Fig Stout Twist, a 4.6% ABV style stout. They call it a "special technology beer with fig flavor." It's a trip to a country that doesn't export beers. We were really happy to get to try them.  #beer #craftbeer #drinks #ipa #lambic #stout

Ever had a discussion that felt like quicksand? You're trying to solve one thing, but somehow you end up defending three other things that weren't even part of the original issue. The topic shifts, the tone changes, and before you know it, you're stuck in a loop.   In this episode, Brett breaks down why some people constantly derail conversations—whether by changing the subject, twisting words, or moving the goalposts—and how to stop that cycle before it eats away at your time, energy, and credibility.   This isn't about learning debate tricks or “winning” arguments. It's about keeping conversations grounded in reality, staying emotionally regulated, and getting back to the real point instead of getting baited into someone else's chaos.   ⸻   You'll Learn: •Why arguments loop in the first place — and the psychological drivers behind conversational derailment. •How to identify the real issue beneath the noise so you stop reacting to symptoms and address the actual source. •Three simple tactics to regain control mid-conversation without escalating the conflict or looking defensive. •How to spot conversational manipulation early and shut it down before it snowballs. •When to walk away — and how to end a circular argument cleanly, without guilt or drama.   ⸻   Who This Is For: •Leaders who keep having the same meetings that go nowhere. •Couples or parents tired of every discussion turning into a blame game. •Coaches, managers, and business owners who deal with emotionally charged people and high-stakes conversations.   If you've ever left a talk thinking, “We just went in circles again,” this one's for you.   ⸻   Related Resources: •Want help improving your communication, leadership, and decision-making under pressure?

This Growth ETF Manager Loves Finding High Growth Stocks With A Twist (Nasdaq: AOTG)GuestJohn Tinsman, Founder of AOT Invest LLC and Portfolio Manager of the AOT Growth and Innovation ETF (Nasdaq: AOTG).About John:John blends Midwestern pragmatism with global financial expertise. He grew up in his family's Iowa fertilizer business, studied economics at Northwestern and Oxford, and cut his teeth as a Chicago market maker. In 2022, he launched the AOT Growth and Innovation ETF, which has scaled from $20M to almost $100M AUM, focusing on profitable, tech-driven companies that compound growth.• Company: AOT Invest LLC• Website: http://aotetf.com/• Tickers: $AOTG, Launching $ AOTS SoonMethodologyAOT Invest selects innovative companies which seek to significantly grow their revenues and earnings. AOT also believes companies whose products or services have low marginal cost attributes will be able to achieve above average growth and profit margins in the future. AOT targets industries projected to grow significantly over the next 5 to 10 years. Within those industries, AOT seeks to invest in innovative market leaders who are growing their revenues or earnings and whose products or services could be described as having low marginal cost qualities. Marginal Cost is defined as the cost added by producing one additional unit of a product or service. By having a low marginal cost, a firm may be able to sell its product or service at a much higher price than the cost it took to produce the additional product or service, achieving a significant profit on new sales. Thorough fundamental analysis is made to weigh valuation metrics with growth of each company so that the greatest investment opportunities in AOT's opinion are selected. Thus, AOT selects innovative companies well positioned in expanding industries, that are both reasonably valued and have low marginal cost qualities. AOT expects that such companies will not only significantly increase their revenues, but that their earnings will increase at even greater rate than revenue. Over time, AOT believes this revenue and earnings growth will ultimately lead to above average share price appreciation for these companies and the AOT Growth and Innovation ETF.

Before diving into how it all works, the BullCast crew kicks things off with a play on words in their pop culture list of the Brief History of Coca-Cola Prices. Then, they break down what drives cost-of-living changes, how COLA is calculated, who it helps, and why it matters for millions of Americans.

Register for Founder University Japan's Kickoff! https://luma.com/cm0x90mkToday's show:Find out why AI is perfectly suited to legal tasks… despite being too fast for “billable hours”On today's TWiST, Alex takes a deep dive into LLM Law with Harvey AI co-founder/president Gabe Pereyra. It turns out, much like software development, doing legal work relies on learning specialized language and sifting through a dense and expansive corpus of information… making it an IDEAL use case for LLMs.Buuuuut AI works so fast… the current structure of legal payments (billable hours) no longer applies. Find out how Harvey is working around these challenges — and what they plan to do if OpenAI decides to get into the legal game — in this fascinating interview.THEN, Alex chats with another AI visionary — OpenRouter co-founder and CEO Alex Atallah — who allows developers to plug and play all the major models into their applications. Find out why specialized LLMs trained for “resourcefulness” are coming into fashion… why benchmarks and evals have become so crucial to the industry… AND whether we'll end up spending as much on AI inference as the human workers it's replacing… in this essential discussion.PLUS Jason stops by for some more Founder Q's!Timestamps:(0:00) Welcome back to TWiST!(1:32) Alex kicks off the show with Harvey AI co-founder and President Gabe Pereyra to talk about applying AI to the legal profession(4:52) How major international law firms (and their enterprise clients) fueled Harvey's mega-growth(6:54) Why LLMs are perfectly suited for legal work(9:24) Enterpret - Enterpret turns feedback noise into Customer Intelligence, so your team knows exactly what to fix and build next.
