If you want something fun to listen to while you do wash your hands,

0:39.3

you could listen to this podcast. Before you continue my first ever journey through the Harry Potter

0:43.3

series, just a few quick announcements. First, unfortunately, we're going to have to cancel the

0:47.3

New Orleans live show in April between us and Harry Potter and the Secret Text. It was a sad decision

0:52.5

to make, but it was the right decision to make. We're just trying to keep everyone safe and just do our part to stop the spread of this pandemic. And a large gathering like this just wouldn't make sense. So hopefully we can do the show later down the road, hopefully in the same city as well. We're really sorry about it, but we're just trying to keep everyone as safe as possible. If you already bought a ticket, you'll be getting a refund. If you have any questions or concerns or problems with that, shoot me an email at pateurlis podcast at gmail.com. Just a programming note about this episode, it was recorded live at LeakyCon in Boston. The audio is incredible. We were on the main stage. The microphones are really nice. I went through all of the audio editing software to make it sound perfect. So please don't dismiss this episode just because it's live. And also stick through to the end for the Q&A because it was one of the funniest Q&A's I've ever done. Some of the best questions we ever had. And Chris is so incredibly sassy about Weasley rankings and his thoughts about Percy and the twins and other Weasleys. And it's so fantastic. I'm really excited for you guys to hear this entire episode.

And with all the COVID-19 stuff out there, everyone just please stay safe. Wash your hands. Practice social distancing. Podcasts can help. If you want to hang out, I'm going to be online a lot more now. So, you know, check out Potteros on Twitter or Instagram or Reddit or the Discord. There'll be some fun stuff. I'll try to do like live streams and stuff,
