In Episode 32 Gen and Jette talk about Harry Potter Years 1-3. If you’ve been listening to our podcast since the beginning, you know this is a long time coming!
*Disclaimer: There is a lot of love for JKR in this episode with regards to plotting and character development. We recorded this before JKR made her anti-trans stance public. We in no way support JKR or her opinions and we stand with the trans community.*
For the sake of not making the longest episode in the world, we chose to cover only Harry Potter Years 1-3. We talk about plotting, details that are planted in the first three books that make it into later ones, and some of Gen’s favourite moments. And of course, we discuss the impact of these books on the fantasy genre and children’s literature.
So climb aboard the Hogwart’s Express and join us for Harry’s first three years at Hogwarts!
Show Notes
All the love goes to Alan Rickman.
The first movie came out in 2001.
Alfonso Cuarón‘s direction set the tone for the rest of the HP movies. Prisoner of Azkaban was a game changer.
If you’re a serious Potter-head, listen to Binge Mode Harry Potter (you just have to scroll back past Star Wars and Game of Thrones).
