Hey brother! Thank you for the content you have created. It makes me feel less alone in my passion for these books. Your deep dives bring the series to another lever - something I didn’t think possible! My question is this: What if Harry was a female? How do you think the series would differ?...Read full review »

Hi Ben and Jonathan, My wife and I LOVE your podcast, and she raised an interesting question: Did Dumbledore taboo/jinx when anyone speaks about him in Chamber of Secrets in a similar way to how Voldemort taboos his name in Deathly Hallows. The narrator describes Dumbledore speaking slowly and...Read full review »

Hi! Im from Norway and Sweden and love your podcast!! I started reading the books because of your show, and have read through them all in English and is now on the of the sixth book in Norwegian.

giojr11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/24
I have loved their YouTube channel for a while now, so to see them make a podcast like this warms my heart. Keep up the great work guys. Question- since Mertel was killed in order to make a horcrux, would it be possible that she became a ghost because of that? That because of the nature of the...Read full review »
dragonlady😊😊😊😊😊 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/24
I’ve never combed through these books in such detail before but this podcast has me leaving no stone unturned. The Carlin brothers are witty and insightful, and have such engaging conversations. I look forward to every single episode. My question is, would the events in Harry Potter have occurred...Read full review »

Hey brother! Can't wait to see you too in the DC through the Griffin Tour.

I love the one chapter a week format and the deep dive into the story. You two also crack me up constantly! Truly funny and intelligent people! My question is about Tom Riddles diary. The middle name of Tom’s father is not known. Is it possible for Tom Riddle Sr be the original owner of the diary...Read full review »
**just saying** via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/08/24
Have always enjoyed SCB theory crafting and to hear it broken down like this is super enjoyable. I’m behind and listening to book 2 chapter 2 right now but I had a thought. What if Salazar Slytherin’s long lost love story was with a muggle or muggleborn and he lost his family because of their...Read full review »

This podcast gives me some awesome insight into the broader world and how things are connected within the larger story. I’ve listened to nearly the whole series and read it all and every episode unlocks something I didn’t think about. I always look forward to new episodes and will even go back...Read full review »

Really enjoying the show love listening while I work! So interesting when you pull out things I’ve never noticed before, just listening to COS Chapter 3 and they’ve described the burrow as an old stone pig pen, I recently bought a new house which was once a pig shed for a castle in Britain, I’m...Read full review »
Jonesrj01 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/08/24
I am absolutely loving listening to the Carlin Brothers deep diving into every little detail of every page of the books. Especially the digs at Malfoy’s obsession with Harry in the first book. Theory I thought of while listening to the most recent episode “Chapter 16: The Chamber of Secrets” -...Read full review »

Heyyyyy Brotherrrrrr!!! Love the show. It’s so good diving into the show with the guys that I trust most on Harry Potter. Can’t wait to keep listening for the next few years! Who knows where we’ll be by then!?!? I was wondering if you guys think maybe the diary was selected as a horcrux because...Read full review »
Review-a-Dew via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/24
I am reading the books again now. And to experience the books through you in this way makes it much more interesting! In the latest chapter 'the chamber of secrets', couldn't Tom Riddle use the common room entrance when going back and forth, but using the bathroom when he chose to...Read full review »

I’ve been a long time fan and have loved getting to grow my knowledge alongside you! Question: In deathly hallows when Hermione creates a duplicate of the locket to give to Umbridge, why do they not have to go destroy that one? Does duplicating something not make it exactly the same? Would it...Read full review »
Bugbug2k via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/24
One of my favourite podcasts and you can find endless fun to anyone who loves the Harry Potter books. My question is if someone magically or muggly recorded someone speaking parseltongue, could they replay that and speak to snakes? Maybe even control them, like how Voldemort and harry seem to...Read full review »
Serious Lupin via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/06/24
Having read and listened to the series multiple times, it’s fun to really take a deeper look at the story. I enjoy the funny insights into certain details of the story like the basilisk somehow having heat vision. I honestly never noticed Chamber of Secrets as a whodunnit style mystery, but want...Read full review »

I’ve been watching SCB for quite a few years now and feel like this podcast has been the perfect next step in analyzing the series. I’ve been loving all the new insights and theories coming from this new perspective. I have…not so much a question as an interesting thought—Borgin says that there’s...Read full review »

Hey there, Brothers! Can’t believe we’re nearing the end of book two already, this has been such a fun ride so far! All the discussion around the order of Voldemort’s horcruxes had me thinking - what do you think would’ve happened if the curse on the ring had killed Dumbledore instantly?...Read full review »
RebeccaRavenclaw via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/06/24
Heeey brother! We love your podcast, please keep making more episodes. My younger sibling is having trouble with the concept of time travel (Do Harry and Hermione get stuck in time forever?) Is there a simpler way to explain it? Also, it seems like the blood on the wall doesn’t come off. I guess...Read full review »

Team Romoine via Apple Podcasts · India · 05/05/24
Wanted to like this podcast since I’ve finished my other harry potter podcasts. They focus too much on plot holes which make them go off tangent. It makes it hard to focus on the main plot of the chapter (which they just briefly summarize since they spend most of the time talking about plot...Read full review »

Hey J and Ben! Wanted to say I love the pod! It’s been such a joy to keep having it grace my podcast app every week for thrnoast few months, and I so wish I could have made it to the live shows. My theory, what if the diary was enchanted BEFORE it was made into a Horcrux to open the chamber of...Read full review »
ExiledJouster via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/24
I love hearing all of the little secrets and details of each chapter. I was wondering: What if the minister for magic got a secret military team to help take out Voldemort, since the minister knows about the Wizarding World? Guns would probably be effective because bullets would travel faster...Read full review »
Ande Haynie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/04/24
I love the show and think you have the most intresting and entertaining videos. My question is why does none of the ghosts see the basilisk or the chamber? because they could just any time go down to the chamber through the walls or just happen to be inside the wall at the same time as the basilisk.
Interested muggle via Apple Podcasts · Finland · 05/03/24
Love your podcast, it’s the perfect thing to de-stress and has brought the series to life in a whole new way for me. Been a fan of your YouTube channel for 8 yrs and it’s always great to hear your perspectives and improve my own critical thinking. I had a question: What if Aunt Petunia had been...Read full review »
have_a_biscuit_potter via Apple Podcasts · United Arab Emirates · 05/02/24
Every week when a new episode drops literally feels like Christmas morning! This show is truly a gift to me and brings me so much joy.

I’ve read or listened to the books about a hundred times but this is my first foray into this type of deep (sometimes rambling) dive in the world of HP. Love all the theories and insights, particularly the “Harry is the philosopher's stone” bit. Mind blown. Couple thoughts: I’m not sure...Read full review »

I love this show!!! It’s my favorite thing to listen to and I am always on the lookout for a new episode! My question is if someone pregnant was kissed by a dementor what would happen to the baby?
Potterhead554 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/24
Hey brother! I’ve been a fan of yours for years and love the podcast; my sister and I talk about it (and the regular show) all the time! Question: do you think the reason the basilisk doesn’t kill anyone is because Ginny is stopping it somehow? Because when Tom opens the Chamber, someone dies...Read full review »

Heyyy brother! I absolutely love this podcast!! There’s something almost magical(No pun intended) about the way you break down the chapter!

Hey Brothers, I love listening to the podcast each and every week and a theory I’ve had for a while is that Lucius had to have communicated with the diary and came up with the plan. I believe that Tom in the diary talked with Lucius and planned to use his pull with the school to get Dumbledore...Read full review »
