The Real Weird Sisters: A Harry Potter Podcast

Alice and Martha wish that you would listen to this podcast about Edward Eager's Half Magic. They wish it twice! While they may not be the biggest fans of the Knights of the Round Table or "the charm," the sisters are big fans of Uncle Huge and FitzCarrie, and Martha is a big fan of Martha, even when she's only half there.In this series, Alice and Martha reminisce on shared memories, inside jokes, and experiences reading both classic and lesser-known children's books, including favorite segments such as Quora Question of the Week, and Sorting Hat! Take Fives and character studies will continue, with this new episode format being added to the rotation with the other two formats.

Shut Up Tim makes yet another guest appearance on this week's Take Five, covering Moody's questionable teaching methods, a hilarious slapstick montage, and some hard-hitting symbolism in the Hogwarts windows. And if you think an Aging Potion is going to be enough to allow the Weasley twins to enter their names into the Goblet of Fire... well, it's not going to woooo-oooork!

Rounding out the discussion on (but unfortunately, not eulogizing) Umbridge, Alice and Martha analyze Umbridge in the sixth and seventh books. The "Selwyn descendent's" audacity and cruelty peak in these books, as she leads the Muggle Born Registration Commission with disturbing vigor.

It's time for Part 3 of our Umbridge series!
