Summary

Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of Ownership in chapter fifteen of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This week we discuss Muggle/Goblin relations, the Sword of Gryffindor, and of course, the big fight between Harry and Ron. Throughout the episode we consider the question: What are things we can never own?

Thanks to Cindy for this week's voicemail! Next week we’re reading Chapter 16, Godric’s Hollow, through the theme of Peace.

It’s two sickles to join S.P.E.W., and only two dollars to join our Patreon for extra bloopers every week! Please consider helping us fill our Gringotts vault so we can continue to make this show.
