Too much work to do tonight to listen, but it’ll be something to look forward to tomorrow! Always brightens up my day.

John’s rant on house elves is amazing. And Sue’s reaction is the best! Although I’m with sue about the house elves! Yay for transformers! _

Im saving this podcast for a bus ride tomorrow but John’s performance in last weeks show might go down as the funniest in podcast history…...However my first podcast was LET THEM EAT CAKE #135

One of these days I’ll be able to audition for the PotterCast Acting Troupe.
:(

Thank goodness for Pottercast… I have a 2 hour bus commute every Wednesday that I don’t think I could get through otherwise. Can’t wait to listen :)

Great!! I was waiting for this! Downloading it now! Pottercast people, you rock!!

GREAT Thanks, btw I thought that John was in “slytherin” Sue in “Hufflepuff” and Meilissa in “Griffindor” (mouchca the cat in “ravenclaw”) now I am confused ha h aha aa,

Leaky is the first podcast I took the time to listen to, and now I can’t get enough.
Is Scrimegour pronounced “Skrim jur” or “Scrime Gower”?

A dragon with a gender identity crisis? The Stay Puft House elf (that’s an art challenge right there)? LoL. You guys have way too much fun.

Love this podcast! Listen to it everyday on my way to school:) Its funny and I learn a lot:) Can’t wait ‘till Rowling is back on!




omg john is so funny. his innocent voice HA I’m listening right now. Wow go transformers!

leakycon! :( it’s times like these that i wished i lived in america. :( :( :(

This is my first time listening to pottercast. It’s really good. you guys talk about everything…....I’m another avid Potter fan. keep up the good work….can’t wait for the movie to come out. I hope they put more action and leave out less details. I think Part 5 could have been an even better movie with more details from the book that were left out.

hey think ur cold im in CANADA! i just had my first ever snowday -22*C anyway luv the show

PotterCast rocks… and Norberta always knew she was a female dragon. Hagrid is just oblivious.
