Potter Revisited Episode #50 Wizard Lobotomy AKA Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 13 "Gryffindor VS Ravenclaw" We made it to 50 episodes! Thank you for listening!  Shay just got back from a trip to Salem - definitely recommends  Ron and Hermione falling out - Ron seems to just want Hermione to admit she was wrong, which she won't. Why does she double down on Crookshanks being innocent?  Does Hermione using the Timeturner and school load affect how she handles this falling out?  Ron takes the loss of Scabbers really hard  Everyone is very excited Harry has his Firebolt back  Shay has an issue with a certain phrase used  We get our first introduction to Cho Chang - Ravenclaw Seeker and Harry's first crush  Harry having the firebolt - which seems to outrank everyone's brooms - doesn't seem fair for the rest of the students and teams  Harry and his Squad take the Firebolt down to breakfast the day of the game like it is a special artifact  Even Percy is excited about the Firebolt and makes a bet with his girlfriend on the game  We have missed Lee Jordan's commentary, it definitely makes reading the Quidditch heavy chapters easier for those not interested in sports  Shay wonders why a lot of Lee's commentary was excluded from the films Harry sees what appears to be a Dementor by the pitch and shoots a Patronus at it - it ends up being Malfoy and Friends but it's very impressive for Harry to do this while still focusing on the game Shay feels like Malfoy should have gotten a worse punishment  We wonder how Madame Hooch keeps track of all components of the game plus the fouls etc  Harry tries to make up with Hermione a bit and have her join the part but Hermione is almost hysterical - is the stress of everything starting to get to her?  Ron can be quite vindictive when he's upset Harry has an interesting dream about trying to reach a patronus-like figure that is galloping away. Is this a sign from his father something similar?  Ron wakes up the dorm screaming that Sirius Black broke in trying to kill him - why did Dumbledore not have better security in place after the Halloween break-in?  Poor Neville got in so much trouble when it wasn't really completely on him - he was only trying to be proactive  We dive into a deeper discussion about brooms as equipment in Quidditch and if Harry having the firebolt is really fair to the rest of the students  Snape Sucks total for Chapter 13: 0 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback to potterrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com Fill our our Listener Survey here: https://forms.gle/QFEJNAEtQdzXLSBC7 Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us:  Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited
