A Thank You from PotterCast
Sorry for my creepiest little outburst yet, honestly in my head it sounded cute.
Again thanks for listening you guys, without you guys there would be no show. And for being so cool here is some bonus material. See ya next week.
A New PotterCast Song?
In keeping with the recent fun entries, here's a video I took two days ago; I found myself in Washington, DC, for July 4, with some friends (a lot of whom you guys know as the bands Draco and the Malfoys, The Remus Lupins, The Whomping Willows and Justin Finch-Fletchley), and was happily gazing around at the rain-soaked post-fireworks crowd on Constitution Ave...when I heard a familiar-sounding chant behind me. I couldn't get my camera out fast enough. Check it out:
- - Lots of HBP Trailer talk and speculation with the PotterCast Quartet.
- - LeakyCon Dance Party and Registration information.
- - Let's sort Vader!
- - "Half-Blood Prince" and Dan Radcliffe news.
- - PotterCast tour updates.
- - Newest edition of "Guess That Book."
- - Cleaning up John’s innuendos.
- - But there’s great pizza in Scotland.
- - A haggis burrito.
- - Melissa and Sue will be at Comic Con in San Diego, CA starting at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, July 27th.
