PotterCast 96 comes to you live from Phoenix, Arizona, or more accurately Chandler, AZ, which is the next stop on our summer tour for PotterCast, our Harry Potter podcast! To listen, just hit the "Play" button on the right side of the page (--->), or use iTunes, or direct download.
Live from Phoenix, AZ:
- Phoenix answers the Big 5 questions: Harry will live, we should trust Snape, Harry is definitely not a Horcrux(!), Harry will not return to school, and we WILL go behind the veil.
- Could Aberforth be an Animagus dragon on the deluxe edition cover?
- How do you destroy a Horcrux?
- Fan thoughts and theories: Will we see Godric's Hollow? Could Mr. Blood make Harry a Horcrux? What is the significance of Harry’s eyes? What will Pettigrew's life-debt to Harry mean? Will one of the Trio die in Deathly Hallows? Why did Dumbledore knowingly put Snape in a cursed job at Hogwarts?
- John's Armadillo "Fred" (the Arizona equivalent of Scabbers) also makes his PotterCast debut.

i am posting this to try and get SOMEBODY to agree with me!
In Order of the Phoenix, while in the Ministry of Magic, Voldemort could only possess Harry for a short amount of time due to the love he felt for Sirius. If Voldemort could not possess Harry, how on earth could a piece of his soul reside in him!
Drat! I must get my eyes checked, as I missed that y’all were in Chandler. Was the Tuscon heat not enough for you, then? Needed a few more degrees to keep you toasty?
I was there that is my theory about peter pettigrew meeting up with harry in godrics hollow and giving him information on R.A.B. but no one was really listening everyone was talking the whole time i was and they didnt even care shame on potter cast!!!
How come I didn’t know y’all were in Chandler! I live there! I missed it! Drat.
PS- We dont’ have armadillos in AZ. But I think John might like a nice cuddly Gila Monster or maybe a Diamondback Rattlesnake. :)
Agree with the position that “Harry is a horcrux” is nonsense, but beyond that, I actually have what I think is a fairly decent theory. I apologize to anyone who has already aired this brilliant idea, but as I don’t have time for the blogs/forums/etc, here goes:
Everyone keeps asking how Harry finds out about destroying the horcruxes. As JKR has already stated that we’ll see Krum again (and there’s that nagging bit about a dragon being involved at some point), my guess is that the Trio swing by Bulgaria to visit with Krum and ask him to search Durmstrang’s library for info on horcruxes. He just happens to find a book on the subject (big surprise in a school that just loves the Dark Arts), hands it over, and then the Trio take a trip to Albania, which is where I bet a horcrux is hidden (as Voldy has spent quite a bit of time there). Trio finds horcrux, uses spiffy new book to destroy it, and they’re off for more (stopping by Romania to borrow a dragon from Charlie in the process).
Thoughts, anyone? I’d have thrown this out in Tucson (which is my hometown), but as the Navy is keeping me in Hawaii, I hope someone tosses this out at the next stop on the PotterCast tour!
Went to the last potter cast in Thousand Oaks and loved it!!!!Made no comments but wanted to, but the cast showed up late and kept getting phone calls from from all those locked out at home..heavy sigh...
"What are you doing Muggle Studies for?" said Ron, rolling his eyes at Harry. "You're Muggle-born! Your mum and dad are Muggles! You already know all about Muggles!"[br]"But it'll be fascinating to study them from the wizarding point of view," said Hermio
I can’t wait to listen to the show, I used to live in Chandler!
