Customer Reviews
Amazing
Such an amazing podcast makes me rethink everything that happened in the series would definitely recommend x
I stand with JKR
Some of the hosts say ‘educate yourself’ - the ignorance and lack of self awareness of some of these hosts is astonishing. Please do not misrepresent JKR’s words. She has does more good for ‘othered’ people than any of you ever will. The irony of your statements as you exploit her works is breathtaking.
Keep going Jo, I’m with you all the way.
Love this show
Who would have guessed you could get SO MUCH content out of the books for so long??
I’ve listened to a few Harry Potter podcasts, but what really makes this one stand out to me is that the team come across as though they actually LIKE the books! Others I’ve listened to seem to be trying so hard to be funny or relevant or intelligent or whatever that the enjoyment of the stories gets lost along the way. The Alohomora team make the show funny, relevant and intelligent and still ooze Harry Potter love!
