Podcast update

Hi listeners! We promise we haven’t completely forgotten about you and your wizardly wizard...

In response to your discussion in episode 6 - Dumbledore acknowledging that Harry could understand that Parseltongue spoken by Morfin in the Gaunt memory doesn't mean that Dumbledore can speak Parseltongue. If you assume he can't, then Dumbledore would be hearing hissing noises. Dumbledore just points out that Harry would be able to understand it, which is when Harry realises that Morfin is speaking Parseltongue, not English. Anyway, I really enjoy the episode. Keep on wrocking and Rowling!

Beautiful new cover for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone! But seriously, how many covers can you have for one book? Which ones your favorite? I have to say, I still like the original British cover the best!
