Sonorus 12: The Useless One

It's an all girls show this week! And we prove that 'girls just wanna have fu-un!'. That was a terrible allusion. Well, we certainly did have fun even without the small amount of testosterone that Josh provides on the show!

• Linda’s boots take an unexpected road trip...to Kirsty’s house...in Melbourne
• We chat about the weird and the wonderful in the Terminus Programming schedule. And trust me, there are plenty of both.
• Yet another new segment, which will promise to have you doing the Time Warp!
• DH-Pull-a-Part this week will focus on chapter 12- Magic is Might. We chat about the similarities the Trio have with their post-polyjuiced selves and the convenient slotting in of NoseBleed Nougat and Puking Pastilles.
• A special, random guest joins us for this week’s SACA on Tonks and we find him more than adequate to replace Josh.

Sonorus 11: The Aftermath

Another episode, another day in paradise! We’ve got a huge episode to make up for the slight lull in podcasts lately. Frankly, we’re back with a vengeance!
Some of the riveting items for discussion this episode:

• The rumoured scenes in the Half Blood Prince teaser trailer. What’s Snape’s ‘pivotal moment’? More Draco?
• Guess who will be the last people in the world to see the Half Blood Prince movie? And who the first will be? The answers will surprise you...
• The up-coming Half Blood Prince game on various platforms. Will it top the last? What will they need to brush up on? What is the point of the Harry Potter Lego game?
• DH-Pull-a-Part:  Chapter 11 - The Bribe. Would side-along apparition fool the Fedilius charm? Is Kreacher cute? Lupin’s little tanty.
• SACA! Our Super Awesome Character Analysis will focus on Remus Lupin.
