And the award for Best Podcast goes to this podcast. Real talk, though, we did win Best Art

Podcast 2019 from DiscoverPod's and Best Podcasts overall from Celebrics for 2019. So shout out to everybody for making this happen. The Art Podcasts one is ridiculous. And the Celebrity One was great because it was on some tabloid website. I'm here for it. Thanks to everybody who voted for the Celebrity One. But before we continue my first ever journey through the Harry Potter series, just a few quick announcements. First, I'm going to keep saying it until the show happens on January 22nd, Wednesday in Phoenix, Arizona, Potterless will be live. My special guest will be Johnny Frolicstein. It's going to be absolutely fantastic. We have something ridiculous planned. I'm so excited. If you want to get tickets before they sail out, head on over to bit.l.ly

slash potterless pHX, all lowercase. Also, it's the first episode of potterless in January, meaning that it's donation time. Here at potterless every month, we donate $1 for every member of our team over at patreon.com slash potterless. Just an update on 2019, we raised $9,429 for charity, which is absolutely bonkers.

This brings our total career potterless money given to charity. we raised $9,429 for charity, which is absolutely bonkers.

You all are fantastic.

Thank you so much for making this happen.

For this month, we have 862 patrons at the time of recording, meaning I'll be giving $862 to the NSW Rural Fire Service. So I'm sure all of you are aware by now, the brush fires that are going on in Australia, they are absolutely devastating and I can't even fathom what I'm seeing in these pictures and videos. I am so sorry my heart goes out to everyone that is affected by these. This charity gives funds directly to the firefighters that are putting out these fires, putting their lives on the line to do so. So I thought it was a worthy cause for this month. And thanks to everyone who reached out and provided me with more information about the situation going on, I really hope this gets resolved as soon as possible. If you want to learn more about this particular charity, you can go to rfs.nsw.g.comu. And speaking of the Patreon team, we've new members on that team.
