Customer Reviews
I love these guys
I don’t even agree with a lot of the things they say but they are so entertaining. There witty and point out a lot of things that I never noticed.
Fun Talk about Potted, different discussions than other podcasts
I like listening to Doug and Robb laugh about the ridiculous things in the Potter world. This show needs more love, can’t wait to get to the later episodes. I’m at the end of chamber of secrets right now and it is getting better. Great job guys!
Hope they stick with it
It seemed like a good enough way to kill some time. Then I found myself laughing out loud. Looking forward to the next episode
