“First up in Sue’s news, we update you on photos of the Disney World Harry Potter theme park that have appeared online”

You are aware, that the Harry Potter themed area (not theme park) will be at Universal’s Island’s of Adventure, and not Disney World, right?

I listened to the show way before the news about it came up. Anyway, I really enjoyed your show ( as always) but where was that wand core test ? :) I want to find out what my wand core is.

Yay for the new crafty segment (and boo-hiss for being at work and unable to download the new episode yet… there are mondays when I would consider bringing my laptop in to work and connecting to the wireless just to get Pottercast earlier since I’m away from home until late every Monday…)

I always enjoy the podcast. Never stop them!

By question, what was the link to the wand wood/core website that you all used? I want to try!

SnapeFan, I’m sure they are very aware of the location of the HP theme park, but last year they had an unofficial Disney Land day, and now they are doing the same thing in Florida.

Great Show, as usual, but where is that wand test?

@hannah

I’m American and I’ve always wondered what an American accent would sound like if I were a foreigner. I love the British accent. Try as I might, the standard American dialect always sounds like “normal talk” and I just can’t make out the accent. Weird.

Yay!

After a long trip with train from Stockholm to Oslo, PotterCast makes me happy again!
