Hey, it's me, the spirit of spring. If you want to make sure that I leave like a lamb this year

and I have a nice ending to the season, what could you do? Well, I think you could listen to an episode of this podcast. Before we continue my first ever journey through the Harry Potter series, just a few quick announcements. First, we have a live streamed live show coming up very soon, and you can consume it wherever the internet is sold. So if you have the internet, that means you're listening to this podcast. So if you have the internet, you can tune into our live stream. It is March 10th,

2024 at 6 p.m. Eastern Time. That is the day the daylight savings time begins. So make sure you

factor that in if you're not in America or not in a place that does daylight savings. So

take that into account. But we're doing a live stream of the live show that we're doing March 10th at 6 p.m. Eastern time. It is half Potterless, half the News Olympian, which is my Percy Jackson podcast for the New Olympian. We are beginning the coverage of Heroes of Olympus. So we'll be doing the first two chapters. And then for the potterless

portion, we're going to take a bunch of Harry Potter pets and put them competition style

through the format of Big Brother. The guest for this show will be Michael Hollis, who has been on

T&O, and he did some live shows with me on the road for TNO last year. And this will be his

potterless debut, I believe, but he's a good

friend of mine, very knowledgeable about both series. And I'm excited to have him as a guest. If you want to get tickets, you can go to potterilluspodcast.com slash live. And if you're in the Charlotte area, you can still get tickets to the Charlotte show if you want to see it in person. and that is also available at potterillaspodcast.com.com. I'll also be in Raleigh on March 9th, but that show is sold out.

Thank you, Raleigh, for getting tickets. But unfortunately, we have sold out. But we have the live show up. It is very exciting. And the live stream also comes with a seven-day replay. So if that day and time doesn't work out for you, that is okay. You can either watch it later or watch it again or watch part of it and then pick it up later.

There's a live chat that comes with it too so you can interact with the other folks who are watching. It's going to be a fun time and I hope you come through. It should be a really exciting live show and I'm excited to do it for the packed crowd in Charlotte and the packed crowd watching the stream up in the live chat. So that is what's going on in the world of Potterillus. I will hopefully be putting out more episodes soon. But let's talk about the episode that you're about to hear. This is from the live show that Kelly and I did in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2022. This is the Potterless portion of a half and half show. So this was the second act of the show where we did a wizard on Survivor. It's one of the earlier Wizard on Survivor formats that we've done. And I think that since this show, we've kind of expanded the format a little bit in terms of getting the crowd interacting with us more for making the decisions. This one, because Kelly is a survivor expert, I was deferring to her a lot to help us make the final calls.

But I think this is a really fun one to listen to because this is Kelly and I kind of starting to figure out this format that I have used at many live shows since.

So I think you will enjoy this episode still.

We've built upon the last Survivor, which I posted to the feed recently with Eric Schneider. And this one is, you know, us starting to figure out the format. And it's fun. And especially if you like Survivor, Kelly gets very much in the weeds of the game. So that's really fun. But if you don't understand Survivor, that's okay. It's still a really fun time. And if you enjoy this episode and you don't just want to listen to it, you want to see it. You can get the video replay of this live show. If you go to the merch store for the News Olympian, my Percy Jackson podcast, go to the Newse Olympian.com slash merch. And when you go to the merch store, you can scroll down and get the The Newse Olympian and Potterillus Live in Philly, August 31st, 2022 live show.

And you can see the visuals from this show in addition to just listening from the audio.
