Hi everyone, I'm Andrew Sims.

And I'm Laura Thompson. We're both from MuggleCast, one of the top Harry Potter podcasts online.

As most of you may know, December 5th is Darfur Fast. On that day, thousands of students from all over the world

give up luxury items like Starbucks drinks or something else that they get in their daily lives.

The situation in the Darfur region of Sudan is nothing short of disgusting.

Millions have been driven from their homes in your refugee camps and even more have been killed in the mass genocide of the region.

Darfur Fast is organized by the HP Alliance, a coalition of Harry Potter websites and wizard rock bands concerned with ending the genocide in Darfur.

MuggleCast wants to help out, so Laura and I are going to participate in Darfur Fast.

On December 5th, I will be giving up a Netflix movie subscription for the month of December. This will save $25 and go to charity.

And I myself am a huge Chick-fil-A fan. I'll be giving up the meals for a week, which in my school also adds up to $25.

Together, that $50 donation will go to the civilian protection program, but we need your help.

Visit the HP Alliance dot org back slash Darfur Fast all one word and make a donation today. Thanks!

Hey Mason, I really need a good gift from my generic loved one. Any ideas?

Oh yeah, Andrew, I have the gift they need. If you sign up for GoDaddy's economy blogcast package, you'll receive one gig of dis space, 100 gigs bandwidth, recording tools, and much more.

Well, with all those features, I'd guess that kind of package will run me at least $20 a month and be plastered with ads.

You're wrong, Andrew. The blogcast economy package is just $4.49 a month for 12 months.

That's a deal and a perfect way to get your own website blog or podcast started.

Oh yeah, that is a deal. Plus, enter Google Muggle when you check out, save an additional 10% on any order.
