yes!! i love pottercast! 1st.

wooo!!!! pottercast, pottercast!!!!

Yay! Bit by bit is back baby!! I’ve missed it :)

Good show, PotterCasters! I enjoyed listening to it while I cooked myself a late dinner.

And hooray for Bit-By-Bit, especially! I’m now totally confused about the Fidelius Charm/Side-Along-Apparition conundrum. If Hermione could bring Yaxley by Side-Along, then couldn’t Snape have done the same? And so wouldn’t the Death Eaters be pressuring Snape to bring them in? Furthermore, (as the PotterCast quartet discussed), is it really plausible that Yaxley would now be able to bring others to Grimmauld Place, given that he’s not even a secret keeper? Is this an inconsistency in the book? And how does it relate to Jo’s website posting about Fidelius from shortly before Book 7?

Sounds like a great Canon Conundrum to me! It’ll take some careful attention to Jo’s web post and to everything we know about Fidelius from the books, but I think it’d be really interesting.

Does anyone know where I might find the very first pottercasts?

yayyyyyyyyyyyy this has made my day!

@maltrkx:

Go to www.pottercast.com and click on “episodes” on the left. You’ll have to go back through several pages of archives, then download each episode, but it’s well worth it. Several weeks ago, Stede made ALL of the episodes available on iTunes, but only for one week. Hmmm…that was around Pottercast’s birthday…maybe they should do that every year….how does that sound, PotterCasters?

great pottercast and thanks for bringing back bit by bit. OH just to say they didn’t apperate to the forest of dean from the ministry. they actually at the forest where they had the quidditch world cup. The forest of dean isn’t is where Harry and Heremonie apparate too after the godric hollo’ws incident. Just to correct you guys on that part

I haven’t listened to this episode yet, but just as a response to your post…I don’t think that bringing Yaxley in would have done much damage. the way I understood it, was that Yaxley got in, and they left, Yaxley can’t bring other people there, but the Trio are still kids and as Lupin says they may come up against magic they don’t know. I don’t think the trio realised that Yaxley wouldn’t be able too, and since he was never actually told would he be able to get back in once he left? But it still leaves the question of Snape, he was now a secret keeper too, why did he not bring people in? I think that since he was actually good, and good at the mind thingy, that I am not going to try to spell at 1:45 am, that he probably just said that he wasn’t secret keeper and therefore couldn’t say and no one would question it. that was my logic anyway.
