Be comfortable with who you are, everyone. You don't need any tricks or potions to do detective work. It's almost as if these young folks forget that they have an invisibility cloak.

We love you all. And calling all people interested in voice work! We are currently looking for folks to join us for new roles in The Prisoner of Azkaban! Inquire in the HogsRead Facebook group, just search for HogsRead.

Nothing like having a tube sock for an arm while also attempting a beautiful potion heist and talking to a talking wind sock that's trying to "save" you. That's what Harry has to deal with just in this chapter alone!

I would normally put up a silly summary of this particular episode but I just really want to thank Jhae from the Hard Parking Podcast for lending his voice to Professor Binns. Also, with the same amount of gusto and love, I really want to thank all of YOU for listening and collaborating and love this just as much as I do.

Stick around for the rest of The Chamber of Secrets because The Prisoner of Azkaban begins in 2023!

This chapter was completely omitted from the movie. Why? Because it wasn't an important plot mover. Do you agree? I sure as hell don't. Listen in as we continue on our journey through the Chamber of Secrets.

Harry Potter has a stalker and a fan club. 5 Galleons per picture might be best, just don't tell Ron that. He's going to spend this chapter mostly throwing up and complaining.
