    Podcast 227 - Harry Potter - the first movie

    Podcast 227 - Harry Potter - the first movie

    It's true - Francine had never seen ANY of the Harry Potter movies.  She hadn't read a book, understood the story - nothing.  Carrie on the other hand read all the books when they came out AND saw all of the movies.  
    With Francine's upcoming trip that includes Universal Orlando, she thought it was important to actually watch the movies to see if her appreciation for them was different with this new knowledge.
    Find out what Francine thought of the first movie, hear how Carrie explains what's to come in the next movies and how they all enhance the Universal Orlando experience!

🪄 Magical Mind of Nik🏰 ,

A little piece of H°o°me in my heart

Francine and Carrie, you bring happiness to my heart every time I listen to one of your podcasts. My soul lives in WDW (and Universal Studios Orlando)… and to have shared experiences in some of the Happiest Places on Earth brings such joy (and the yearn to return!).
I just listened to your episode discussing Harry Potter and it was an instantaneous transport of my mind back to Orlando 🥰. I am a very self-admitted Potterhead, with a strong Disney heart (including Star Wars, Muppets and Marvel). Listening to this episode was even more inspiring and joyful for me than I can say. I could go on and on … and on, lol, but I’ll just get my main point across here - Thank You for bringing me a huge dose of pixie dust today … and you lifted my heart with a good ‘swish and flick’ -“Wingardium Leviosa!”

Such a joy!

Thank you so much for bringing a little bit of pixie dust each week! As a Canadian Disney fan it’s nice to hear other Canadians experiences and views on the latest news! Such a joy to listen to!

Maryannatee ,

Love the show! Biweekly would be fine!

Your podcasts , positivity and friendship is awesome , thanks for sharing it with the world! You guys are bright stars in an often too negative world! You said on your most recent episode you may switch up the scheduling - totally cool and I think biweekly would be my vote but you guys should do what works for you and your busy lives ! No matter how often you can post I’m sure your loyal listeners will be there! Thanks again for such a great show and insights into all things Disney 😃🇨🇦👍🏼🏰 Mary Ann
