First Years: A Harry Potter Podcast
Arts:Books
For today's episode, you need to have read CHAPTERS 32 & 33 of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. We're going to chat about McGonagall's absence, Snape's motives, Umbridge's "methods", and we'll deep dive into torture and why it doesn't work and into the mythology of centaurs.
