Episode 58: Rat Race Club
Order of the Phoenix chapter 13. We cover some important news about Dobby's grave, and also his dick and balls before strapping in for a long discussion on chapter 13, which is extremely long and meandering.

It's a mega-sized episode this week as we watch the penultimate episode of Legacies, finish After, and dive into the hetero omegaverse lawsuit drama taking middle-aged facebook by storm.(content warning: this is a fairly sexual content heavy episode if you're not into that/you're planning on going through a...

Common Room 18: The Detective
We catch up with Legacies and After, and dive into the wild world of "Imagines" fiction. Liz tells an incredibly cursed story from her youth.
Episode 51: A Dark Fawkes Prediction
Goblet of Fire postmortem. Instead of a Common Room episode this week, we decided to do two regular episodes, because there was just too much news to ignore. Plus, we still have so many thoughts about Goblet of Fire, a book that intrigued, baffled, and frustrated us to no end. We also have the extended cut of Crimes of...
Episode 50: A Very Nude Aura
Goblet of Fire movie. We've made it to the fourth film in the series. Where does it stack up against the previous films? Does it really matter if Dumbledore yells all weird? Would DJ Khaled be a good act to book for the Yule Ball?

Common Room 16: Emotional Tactical Roll
Legacies... good. Like really, really good now, actually, not just ironically? On the other hand we have After, which... isn't any kind of good, really. It's just very, very dark, but Liz's academic research reveals some incredible editorial choices between the original and the published version!

Goblet of Fire chapters 29-30. Where in the world is JK Rowling?
