Summary

Portus 2008 public relations director Aziza Aba Butain joins us… …to interview the narrator of the U.S. Harry Potter books Jim Dale. Mr. Dale gives his thoughts on the recent Deathly Hallows split as well as the movies in general. One of his sons is actually a movie helicopter operator who has worked on the Potter films. What is his favorite Potter character voice? Which one is the hardest – or as he puts it – the most annoying to do? He discusses how he prepares to record the Potter books: some water and a green apple anyone? How long does it take him? More like how long is he given! The answer may surprise you. How well does he know Stephen Fry and Mary GrandPre? Does he ever read the books for enjoyment and what is his relationship with J.K. Rowling? He denies using his relationship with Dumbledore to further his career. Just what does he think about the HP fandom? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
