Ok, WE'RE BACK! NOW this is the REAL end. We watch the final movie's deleted scenes together and react in real time...with a lot of yelling...
Thanks again to everyone who has listened along with this project of ours!
Episode 10 (Minutes 1:36:38 to 1:46:42):
This week carries us back into the battle for an epic speech from Neville and some Malfoys peacing out of this whole situation. We talk about the really long, weird fight around the castle between HP and Voldy and the epic kill by Molly Weasley as everyone stands back and lets her work. Per usual.
Join us next week for minutes 1:46:42 to END!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with MOLLY KILLS BELLATRIX.)
Episode 9 (Minutes 1:23:40 to 1:36:38):
This week marches us into the Forbidden Forest where Harry summons his parents, Remus and Sirius and then punches us repeatedly with the feels. We talk at length about the portrayal of the Resurrection Stone (and is it INSIDE the ring?!) and the conversation between Harry and Dumbledore the White.
Join us next week for minutes 1:36:38 to 1:46:42!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP saying “Professor?”)
Episode 8 (Minutes 1:12:55 to 1:23:40):
This week traumatizes us both as we discuss Snape’s memories in the Pensieve and some that are not even his… We applaud Molly Weasley as always and try to hold it together for this sad, sad chunk.
Join us next week for minutes 1:23:40 to 1:36:38!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP sitting on the steps in Dumbledore’s office.)
Episode 7 (Minutes 1:02:56 to 1:12:55):
This week battles on with some of our favorites returning for the finale. We chat about the ever changing Hogwarts layout and why have this dramatic scene in a boathouse we’ve never seen before? These topics and more, thanks for listening!
Join us next week for minutes 1:12:55 to 1:23:40!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends after Voldemort’s speech, overhead shot of boathouse.)
Episode 6 (Minutes 52:36 to 1:02:56):
This week throws us back into the chaos of the battle of Hogwarts where we wish we could have seen more of the Room of Requirement and why did the Horcruxes whisper…? Also, what was the point of blowing up the bridge if it can be repaired with ‘Reparo’? All these thoughts and more as we reach the halfway point in the final movie!
Join us next week for minutes 1:02:56 to 1:12:55!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with the Horcrux destroyed, Nagini hisses and coils.)
Episode 5 (Minutes 42:36 to 52:36):
This week has students running just amok all over the castle. We (instantly) find the Grey Lady and find her to be a little rude. Lots of yelling and even some whooshing through Harry. Not great, Helena! Also, how does Ron know (and understand) Parseltongue from Harry talking in his sleep..?
Join us next week for minutes 52:36 to 1:02:56!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron and Hermione pulling apart, laughing.)
Episode 4 (Minutes 32:20 to 42:36):
This week opens the portrait into the Room of Requirement and begins the battle of Hogwarts. Luckily, we have our guest Brock to discuss the pandemonium that ensues as well as the mysterious giant staircase that has appeared in this movie…

Episode 3 (Minutes 22:10 to 32:20):
This week drops us off of a dragon and into a lake where we are privy to not only Harry’s memories, but Voldy’s as well! We chat about the bloodbath at Malfoy Manor and where are Voldemort’s shoes?!
Join us next week for minutes 32:20 to 42:36!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Neville saying “Let’s have a bit of fun, shall we?”)
Episode 2 (Minutes 10:22 to 22:10):
This week breaks us into Gringotts where we discuss animal cruelty, customer service, and the absence of the Flagrante curse. We also talk about Harry’s newly added sixth sense that enabled him to find the horcrux cup-despite never discussing it before…magic!
Join us next week for minutes 22:10 to 32:20!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron shouting, “That was brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!”)
Episode 1 (Minutes 0 to 10:22):
This week drifts us in to THE BEGINNING OF THE END! We have a seemingly very brief stay at Shell Cottage where we’re pretty sure the set designer may have gone a touch overboard with the amount of seashells…just a touch.
Join us next week for minutes 10:22 to 22:10!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP saying, “I suppose I’ll have to kill him before he finds me then.”.)
BONUS TIME! We watch the deleted scenes and react in real time. We also reflect on this movie as a whole and how we are still not over the shard of mirror not being explained...the hell. Thanks for another season and tune in for the final movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows PART TWO!
Episode 13 (Minutes 2:05:19 to END):
This week rescues us from the cellar of Malfoy Manor but leaves us with several questions about arm carving and the lack of Wormtail’s self-strangulation... We struggle through the end of this movie on the beach near Shell Cottage and only cry a few times. This project is great. 🙁
Thank you all again for continuing to listen as we near the end of this project! See you very soon for the LAST movie as well as a bonus episode next week!
Episode 12 (Minutes 1:57:02 to 2:05:19):
This week crumbles Xeno’s house and lands the trio right into a nest of Snatchers. We discuss Harry’s “Voldy Vision” and how did Grindelwald know so much within the tower of Nurmengard…? These discussions and our favorite mirror shard included, listen and enjoy!
Join us next week for minutes 2:05:19 to END.
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP saying "help us" into the mirror, Ron turns out the lights)
Episode 11 (Minutes 1:45:29 to 1:57:30):
This week knocks on the door of the Lovegood home and treats us to the beautifully animated Tale of the Three Brothers. We applaud the details of Xeno’s house but why can’t Hermione’s flames be blue?! Also, is Voldemort’s name taboo yet or nah?
Join us next week for minutes 1:57:02 to 2:05:19!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Xenophilius’ house crumbling)
Episode 10 (Minutes 1:35:07 to 1:45:29):
This week creeps us through the forest at night when HP starts to follow a (CORPOREAL) Patronus to a pond. We chat about ice thickness, polar plunges, and conversations that are way too calm. But also, hey, another Horcrux down, mate.
This is our 100th episode!! Had to laugh that it landed when CJ is sick and Andrea’s audio is terrible. Very on brand for us. :) We sincerely thank everyone who has followed us on this journey so far!
Join us next week for minutes 1:45:29 to 1:57:45!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Ron saying “and you did.”)
Episode 9 (Minutes 1:24:54 to 1:35:07):
This week slithers us through the trip to Godric’s Hollow where we are very pleased NOT to see the form of Nagini erupting out of a dead body. We have so many questions here about the home of Bathilda and how exactly Harry knew which house belonged to him? Also, WHAT IS THIS NURSERY?!
Join us next week for minutes 1:35:07 to 1:45:29!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP saying “I’ll take the locket as well.”)
Episode 8 (Minutes 1:13:04 to 1:24:54):
This week walks us…everywhere. We can’t help but to notice the LOTR-ness of this chunk combined with the ever growing madness of Ron. We talk about some strong feelings regarding the dancing scene and why was getting food ever an issue?
Join us next week for minutes 1:24:54 to 1:35:07!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with Hermione saying “Don’t ever let me give you a haircut again.”)
Episode 7 (Minutes 1:01:26 to 1:13:04):
This week calmly walks us out of the ministry with a gentle “it’s Harry” amid the chaos. We talk about (yet again) the mystery shard of mirror and why can’t we ever let Hermione fully be the head bitch in charge? These and more questions in this week’s episode!
Join us next week for minutes 1:13:04 to 1:24:54!
(Scene Marker: This chunk ends with HP telling Hermione “just don’t wear any.” Ron glares.)
