Hello there. No, this is not General Kenobi, and we are not at all discussing Star Wars. We're discussing the third book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban.

In our deep dive of this book (and to a lesser extent, movie) we discuss the abundance of new themes for the series, the fact that the tone of the series seems to have been settled, the absence of Voldemort, the piece of shit that is Aunt Marge (yeah, I've cleaned it up for this description), the return (technically) of Sirius Black, the new attitude toward Harry, Hermione's new pet, the introduction of several new and important characters, don't Dementors suck, how nice is that Hufflepuff Seeker, friction between The Golden Trio, Harry's broom upgrade, Expecto Patronum, the Marauder's Map, an actual prophecy, and the twist revelation of the true villain of the book.

This is our last single episode for an individual book, so... settle in. It's gonna get descriptive.

Yes, we know, it's been ages since we released an episode. But never fear, here we are with a brand-new episode... just this one is totally out of date and in some ways not even relevant anymore. Welcome to F.U.C.K.S 33!

Today we have our usual catchup, Henno wonders if he can watch things with Cancelled celebrities again, we discuss Stream v Syndication, how much money some celebrities make, the new (well, it was) Fantastic Four trailer, our concern for Bucky in Thunderbolts* (just totally irrelevant now), what will The Odyssey movie be like, and is TV becoming better than film?

Stay tuned, as more episodes will follow soon... ish. Maybe. If you're lucky.

Oh, hello to the people who are still listening. Yes, we're still here... for good or bad.

Please note: this was recorder well before the passing of Dame Maggie Smith. Any discussion of her is intended to be only complimentary.

Today we will discuss the worst book (and film), but that doesn't = bad. But it's the Chamber of Secrets, and everything that goes with it.

We discuss the Dobby and The Problem With House-Elves, the concept of The Trace, the introduction of Lucius Malfoy - the true villain of the story, the dumbest decision ever made by anyone in the series, the concept of magical racism, and that's before the school year even starts!

Harry hears things, The Heir is back (beware), is Harry guilty, who is Tom Riddle, how clever is Hermione (hint: very), why did Hagrid get expelled, who is Tom Riddle really, and would Lucius Malfoy really have killed Harry?
