Trewin Dale Getty Sherman ,

New ‘What if?’

What if Harry and the Weasleys didn’t get Quidditch Tickets for the Top Box? Because then Barty Crouch Jr wouldn’t get Harry’s wand and wouldn’t be able to cast the Dark Mark and maybe even not go to Hogwarts
Please shoutout my YouTube channel if this is a good ‘What if’
My YouTube channel is called Stuff ‘N Things (@Sherman99999)

A.S. 155 ,

Amazing!

I always love listening to the Carlin brothers talk about Harry Potter!
I 13 and it’s crazy to think that by the time this is over I’ll be in my senior year of high school.

Wise_girl6666 ,

I love it!!!!!!

This is the best podcast to listen to while doing random things. I look forward to every Sunday now and it helps me focus. Thank you for making such a great podcast.

Ps. I have the British version of the book and yes it does say football and only recently I have realized that it meant soccer and not American football
