Before we begin this episode of Potterless continuing my first ever journey through the

Harry Potter series, just a few quick announcements.

So the merchandise store is live.

If you go to bit.ly slash merch on all lowercase, you can get some amazing Potterless merch.

And I have a fun little contest to announce in regards to the merchandise.

So the Wizard on Pins, the Ludo Bagman posters, the Potterless stickers, those are all ready

to be shipped right now.

But the shirts and sweater are on preorder until this Friday June 22nd.

Now you'll notice that for the shirts there is different color options one for each

of the Hogwarts houses.

So we're having a little preorder competition whereby when the preorder closes, whichever

house is in the lead, I will make a special bonus episode that is free to the public, not

behind any sort of Patreon paywall, about that particular house.

So the current standings are Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and then a tie for third between Slyther

and Grifendor.

And the Grifendor inside of me is crying, but the cynic inside of me is laughing because

these standings are the exact opposite of what they would be in the book.

So get in those preorders.

I will make a special bonus episode just doing a big deep dive about the history of the

house, the founders, all that good stuff.
