Hey, it's me, the Northern Lights. People say that it's hard to see me. It's a bit unpredictable

whether or not I'll be out on any given night. But if you are hoping to increase the odds,

there's no study saying that it isn't beneficial to listen to an episode of this podcast.

Before we continue my first ever journey through the Harry Potter series, just a few quick

announcements. Inspired by that intro, yes, I'm coming to you live from Finland. Finland. I'm finally here. The prophecy has become truth. I'm doing a sold-out

potterla show here. I am so excited. Also doing a T&O show. There are still tickets available. So if you're

in Finland and you want to see me do a live live podcast, you can go and get tickets to that. And if

you live anywhere in Germany,

you can also get tickets to the Berlin show. I believe we've sold out of the second Munich show.

Shout out to Germany for selling out a whole bunch of shows. That's super cool. But we should

still have tickets to Berlin available at potterlesspodcast.com slash live. And that is just about it

for the European tour. The shows have been so much fun so far. Shout out to everybody who has come to the shows and everyone that I've got to meet and all the people who have gotten to speak with Kelly, the merch table and everything. And people have given us gifts and said nice things and posted nice things. And it's just been such a delay. And to round out the tour by doing Helsinki and then another Helsinki show and two Berlin shows and two Munich shows is going to be such a delay. And I hope to return to Europe in the future to some of the cities I wasn't able to visit to and I would love to tour to other places, other continents that I have not done live shows yet. And speaking of other continents, I will be doing shows in North America later this year.

And I intentionally said North America because I'm doing shows in the U.S.

and also in Canada, our first ever Canadian shows.

So on Friday, March 31st, tickets for the following shows should go live.

May 24th in Seattle, Washington, May 26th in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, June 14th in Cleveland, Ohio, June 16th in Detroit, Michigan, and June 18th in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

So those all will be live at Potterlesspodcast.com slash live, except for the Seattle show, because that's just going to be the Newse Olympian. I might still put the link up live, but that's the only TNO show. All those other shows I just mentioned will be half the News Olympian and half Potterless. Now, if you can't make it to any of these shows, but you want to experience some sort of live show experience more than just the episodes that I've been putting on the feed, you can get digital versions of

past live shows. If you go to potterlesspodcast.com slash merge, we don't have any more physical

merch, but we do have digital merch. And some of the digital merch items include past live show

replays, whether it was stream shows that I did during COVID times or digital video replays

of shows like we did a show in Philadelphia recently. And there's also some Potterless live shows up for free on the YouTube. If you just search for Potterless on YouTube, you'll find it there. It's also YouTube.com slash at Potterless. But there's a whole bunch of stuff you can get online. There's also the Potterless Patreon that you can still get access to at patreon.com slash potterless. And for just four bucks a month, you get access to everything I ever posted on the potterless Patreon for the

five years that the show is weekly. Now, let's get into what this actual episode is about. This is a live
