“This podcast isn't terrible (I'm on episode 19 and still listening to it), but it's definitely not something to write home about. I will admit that I do have a long-standing love of this series and so I am likely biased, but I do think I'm open to humorous approaches to the series.

Also, for a 25 year old man, he seems sadly naive about how the world actually is (in fact, slavery is still very much a problem, dude!)

“Such a delight to listen to! As a hardcore Harry Potter fan, I find it equal parts engaging and cringe-worthy as Mike make guesses and assumptions about the series. His commentary is funny and honest. It's really fun to hear someone experience the stories I love so much in real time!”Read full review »

“This podcast has become one of my faves! Harry Potter was the first chapter book I read as a child and countless times since them and looking at it through the eye of someone my age that's never read it has changed my entire perspective on the series! I count down the days til the new one...”Read full review »
