Episode 105: Sunday School
🕑 Added 2020-03-20 14:00:04 +0000 UTCHalf-blood Prince chapter 23. Without much news, we have a looooong runway to discuss what may well be the true turning point for the Harry Potter series: the Horcrux reveal chapter. We chat about narrative structure, theology, and Rowling's boasted story planning, as well as the nature of the soul and the holy nature of the number 7 (you know, light stuff like that). Finally, we continue to attempt to avoid plunging the third segment into darkness with a little MBTI-related silliness from the fandom.

You know what I 100% buy that Bertha Jorkin theory being the original explanation for the weird baby Voldemort just because it provides an explanation for why she exists in this book

I actually do kind of buy that Nagini being a human woman was planned in advance just because I could see it having been a reveal around this point that might have actually, like, meant something in the context of the story instead of just being a random bit of trivia dropped years later
