With special thanks to Jo and Le Grand Fidd, for everything.

pffft, who cares about another interview with Jo? I mean, Mugglecast has Jamie back. Now that’s BIG!!!!
Looking forward to listening to it guys. The first one was amazing and I’m sure this one will be just as great. BTW, I’ve marked the 1st one in iTunes so it won’t get deleted…ever.
haha remember that time Voldemort was like “I know! I’ll get a wand’s loyalty by commanding a snake to kill its ‘owner’ for me! That’ll work just perfect!!”
gets me every time. except not because of the sadness that followed, but still. lol.
Love love love for Leaky + Jo!! Merry Christmas everyone (its Christmas Eve 6pm here), and thank you times a billion for being simply fabulous. Can’t wait to listen!
You know you’ve done good when the object of your affection takes notice of you almost exclusively!! We all appreciate you doing what you do as well and as dedicated as you do it.
“The next password will be horcri” haha!
Jo is such an inspiring, generous, and all around amazing person. You guys must feel very honored to have talked so openly to her, and I can’t think of anyone who deserves it more!
Ack! So close to discussion on Fred and yet so far away! Oh well, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for your next interview when I hope you’ll spend time talking about Fred, George and Lupin.
Thank you Jo, Melissa, John and Sue for allowing the magic to continue a bit longer.
Ohhhh, so the Slytherins DID come back! Only, they had to make sure they would win first. Nice!
I forgot about Slughorn shame
Lol @ Draco marrying some random undergrad and Pansy probably having a terrible life. lol I think the moral of this story is that violence against bullies is wrong, just write them into characters and make millions and then cackle about your greatness later, vindicated, haha :D
I loved how only Alan Rickman knew about Snape’s past. No one suspected him! It’s awesome how he kept that to himself for all these years. What a huge secret to keep, too.
Thank you for asking about Florean Fortescue!
But honestly, I’m tired of wand lore. I no longer care about why the wands do what they do. Inspect them on your own time! lol The room of love question. Awesome. I always suspected it to be more…mysterious, haha, then that. But still. Awesome.
You should have asked if this quote was an intentional clue:
“Right, we’re leaving that room,” said Hermione decisively.
“But what if that’s the one?” said Ron, staring at it with a mixture of apprehension and longing.
—Ron and Hermione, talking about the Door of Love, pg 776 (OoP).
That way you could have chatted about Ron and Hermione!
But your right, she said she’s coming back, thank God. So we can all talk about Colin Creevy and Fred, the fate of George and Ron and Hermione lurrrve.
“Albus Potter and the Book They Said Would Never Happen”
Hahaha, oh please God no. I’m thinking more like a book of short stories. It will feature titles such as: “Rose Weasley and the Ridiculously Romantic Scorpius Malfoy”, “James Potter and the Resilient Spot”, plus the heartwarming “Ron Weasley and his Mad New Family”
pffft, who cares about another interview with Jo? I mean, Mugglecast has Jamie back. Now that’s BIG!!!!
Looking forward to listening to it guys. The first one was amazing and I’m sure this one will be just as great. BTW, I’ve marked the 1st one in iTunes so it won’t get deleted…ever.
