    'Agatha All Along': Reviewing Season 1 of the Witchy and Wonderful Marvel TV Series

    Join us for a stroll down the witch’s road to unpack the latest Marvel Television series ‘Agatha All Along.’ In a refreshing move for Marvel, ‘Agatha All Along’ is simultaneously part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe without beating viewers over the head with unnecessary cameos. We address where ‘Agatha’ fits into the larger MCU story, but honestly, this is a story all its own with new characters and plenty of twists and turns along the way. We also discuss the current state of Marvel, and whether or not ‘Agatha’ represents a return to form for the MCU! What were YOUR favorite parts of ‘Agatha All Along,’ and which Marvel property do you think we’ll see these characters in next? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Should We Feel Sorry for Petunia Dursley? And more MuggleMail

    Join Andrew, Eric, Laura and Micah as we dive into the Muggle Mailbag and respond to listener feedback from the first five chapters of our Order of the Phoenix reread! Visit our new online store for can’t-miss items that are one of a kind! MuggleCastMerch.com Voicemails cover what Hermione would be like in grad school, and a theory as to why the Cursed Child runtime keeps being shortened in America. An astute listener writes in about the historical name origins of the wizengamot! We are all impressed. Ron wearing the locket in Book 7 has the same exact feelings we see Harry have in early Book 5. Other topics include: Why Salazar Slytherin may have chosen emeralds as a house gem, whether we should feel sorry for Petunia Dursley, why Nearly Headless Nick should still be frozen, and Harry’s sparse security detail. A fun What If… segment and Chicken Soup for the MuggleCast Soul round out the discussion. Finally, our Lynx Line benefit exclusively for Patrons has them sharing their overall thoughts on Book 5 so far. Next week’s Quizzitch question: How many Halloween feasts do we see Harry attend during his time at Hogwarts? This episode is brought to you by Better Help.

Join Pam, Laura, and Micah as they break down the basics of this beloved television series adaptation of Diana Gabaldon’s best selling book series, which follows Claire— a World War II combat nurse who suddenly finds herself time traveling back to 18th century Scotland. Our ‘Outlander’ newbies talk about what it’s been like watching season 1 for the first time, in addition to weighing in on Claire as a protagonist, who else is starting to stand out amongst the ensemble cast as one to keep an eye on, Claire and Jamie’s budding relationship, and much more!

    How Would HP Characters Survive in Classic Horror Films?

    Our second October bonus is a bit scary! It asks the question, how would Harry, Ron, Hermione, Luna, Neville, Ginny and Draco make it through a Friday the 13th spent at Camp Crystal Lake? How about Hogwarts dealing with a Gremlins infestation? Or the HP villains finding themselves in a trap made by Jigsaw? This spooky season, imagine with Eric, Andrew and Micah just how our heroes (and frenemies) would fare in 7 classic horror films.
