The 157th edition of PotterCast, our Harry Potter podcast, is now online with some fun Harry Potter related news, discussion, tomfoolery and so much more. First in the news, Sue brings us information on the latest numbers of online readers of the Harry Potter prequel, the series itself selling over 400 million copies worldwide, an overview of appearances by Dan Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths at the Tony awards, EW’s 1000th issue, and a Wizard Rock the Vote update. We’re back to the Bit by Bit of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” where the quartet finishes off chapter twelve and discusses the Trio’s plan to infiltrate the Ministry. The next installment of “Are You Smarter Than John Noe?” comes up next with a slew of listeners battling wits with our John Dawlish. The Wrap Up follows with a bit on this week’s tech problems, John’s new place, the “We are Wizards” commentary, ComicCon info, and much more.

Thanks for the show, PotterCasters! And a big thanks especially to whoever worked to clean up the technical difficulties!

Whoa! I was just listening to an old PotterCast from the summer before Deathly Hallows—the live show in Thousand Oaks. Melissa was speculating about what Dumbledore was seeing when he drank the cave potion, and she said, “Maybe his family got killed during his battle with Grindelwald, and that’s in his memory as well.” Not exactly right, but pretty close!

Okay..I´m getting VERY VERY frustated here: WHY on earth can´t I read the comments to the “Katie Mulgrew joins the Equus cast” story…Is anyone else having the same problem. There´s NOTHING wrong with the other stories
