In this episode, Andrew and I take a deep dive into the Harry Potter universe, chatting about the upcoming HBO series, dream character casting, and some of our favorite wizarding world spots like Diagon Alley and The Leaky Cauldron which is the title of thid chapter review! We explore what these places mean for Harry — freedom, safety, and a sense of belonging — while reflecting on how the series continues to evolve through its adaptations.

We also focus on Book Three: The Prisoner of Azkaban, unpacking everything from Harry’s time in Diagon Alley to the mystery of the Firebolt, the Weasley family dynamics, and the introduction of the darker, more mature themes surrounding Sirius Black.
