Br. Giles & the editorial team: I LOVED this episode. One of the best ones of the series!! Anyone who still has doubts about the Christian foundations of the Harry Potter series should listen to this episode. Thank you so much for the work you put into this!
Thank you Father Roderick. Special thanks ought to go to our writer for this episode, Kathy Couture, who wrestled for a long time to hone the script to what it is.
But I stand on other great shoulders too: those who provide fantastic material, the other writers, Yelda, Jill, Julie.. and the other contributors of ideas, inspiration and feedback.
I thank you all, too, and look forward to more secrets from your great storytelling minds.
Actually, I just listened to this and I was very, very impressed. Your format, illustrations, and choice of music were all VERY tasteful and really helped get your point across. And I love the way you linked concepts across various works, Tolkein, CS Lewis, etc. A grown- up podcast about Harry Potter. Who woulda thunk it? Please keep it up, I’m definately subscribing….
I am thoroughly enjoying each episode in this Secrets Of Harry Potter series. I came upon your website while looking for a more mature podcast that focused on the wonderful Harry Potter books. God is Good! I could not have asked for anything better then this. Your episodes are far and few in between I do hope you continue all the way through to the end of the book seven.
Is something wrong with my sound system? I’m hearing it far too high-pitched, like a chipmunk.
