WizLib ,

The Best Harry Potter Book Podcast Out There!

If you collect Harry Potter books this is the podcast for you. A lot of podcasts take time to find their feet but Dialogue Alley gets its format and structure nailed from the first episode. News, a main topic, and a translation of the show. The hosts have great chemistry and you feel like you’re listening to your friends discus your favourite books. The first few episodes are great but the show takes it up a notch when Melanie joins 10 episodes or so in.
Crucially they get the length spot on. None of this three hour rambling nonsense. Structured and well produced. Highly recommended.
