What?
I only made it a few episodes in because the host tries to have a lot of “cute” hot takes on the series while simultaneously misreporting important details from the books he supposedly just read. He also takes digs at the movies while also admitting he has only seen 4.5 of them and it’s been a while since he’s watched them. Lastly, the friends he has on as “Harry Potter experts” get tons of basic facts wrong and seem to be in the same boat of not having read the books or watched the movies for a while. I just don’t get why you’d make a podcast about something while putting such little effort into engaging with the topic of your podcast.

The way in which the host talks about racism and slavery is at times ignorant, although I see that he clearly makes attempt to be pc - but this makes me cringe even more. Aside from that, the show provides a fresh take on the Harry Potter series and I enjoyed it very much.

Hilarious! Every episode makes me laugh and my being a super fan of the Harry Potter series, which I’ve loved since I was a child, is validated by someone who’s reading it the first time as an adult.

Even if you haven't read Harry Potter, you can read along together with Mike as he experiences the story for the first time. It's torture to wait two weeks for new episodes, because it is so amazing and it makes my day so much better to listen to it. LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!Read full review »
