Growing Up with Harry: Magic, Morals & Midlife Nostalgia | S01 E01

We’re kicking off the podcast with a trip to Hogwarts—and down memory lane. In this episode, we revisit the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, the magical books that sparked our university friendship. We share our favourite characters (spoiler: it’s not who you think), and chat about why Stephen Fry’s audiobook narration still feels like home.Episode Timepoints:00:00 - Intro02:00 - Personal Introductions10:00 - Our Reading Habits21:20 - A Discussion of Harry Potter52:40 - A Question for our Listeners54:40 - OutroOther works mentioned in this episode -A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J.
