Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Emily & Barney
About this episode

Holy Cricket! S6 has begun, and Emily and Barney are off to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. After listening to this episode, Professor McGonagall has decided (with zero deliberation) to deduct 500 points from Gryffindor. If you love tapered candles and getting (scar)red from Dumbledore jokes, this is for you.


P.S. You've got dirt on your nose by the way, did you know?


Pro Tip: Best listened to with (alas) a pack of Earwax Jellybeans.
