Tonight we bring you the 141st episode of PotterCast, our Harry Potter podcast, with none other than Frak subbing for our academically involved John this episode. In the news this week, Melissa, Sue, and Frak talk about Dan Radcliffe’s win for his role in “Equus” at the WhatsOnStage Theatre Awards along with awards for his fellow cast members, Jo’s continued efforts with the Children’s Voice Campaign, Julie Walters being named a Commander of the British Empire, along with much more. We also discuss the new We Are Wizards documentary, which has been accepted to the South by Southwest Film Festival. Bit-by-Bit then features the next section of Chapter 8 of “Deathly Hallows” where we cover Bill and Fleur’s wedding and the the return of some past characters. Phoenix Files is next bringing you Harry’s first Occlumency lesson with Snape and more. After that, our Scribby5 girls return for more on their latest spoof essays. Finally, we have updates for you on the PotterCast Acting Troupe Auditions, the deadline for which has been moved to March 8th!

John will always be what makes Pottercast with his Juno humor, but Frak was a nice little replacement! : )
