Summary

This week, be careful what you say, be careful what you touch! From sinister nonverbal spells to cursed jewelry,  Hogwarts is more of a security nightmare than normal! Join Andrew, Eric, Micah, Laura and Channell as they brave the frigid cold of Hogsmeade.  Welcome, Slug Club member Channell! Music to our ears! Hans Zimmer will score the new Harry Potter TV Show! Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Half-Blood Prince, Chapter 12: Silver and Opals Where the hell is Dumbledore and what is he doing? Harry is asking, not us! What is it about the Prince that endears Harry to him? How are spells created in the Wizarding World? We explore this question in great detail in this week's Bonus MuggleCast and Andrew even challenges the hosts with some creations of his own! Reckless Harry! Why is he casting spells with no clue what they do? Should Harry use the Prince's work to help curry Slughorn's favor? Hot Take: Snape would have been a great teacher if he taught with the same enthusiasm he has when writing his notes! Do we think Slughorn is even more interested in Harry given it’s been so hard to get him to come to the Slug Club? Connecting The Threads to Chamber of Secrets: More bathroom problems! Why doesn't anybody believe Harry? The evidence is starting to pile up against Draco! Our MVP segment asks what would have happened if Dumbledore had received the cursed necklace? Our Lynx Line topic this week for Slug Club patrons: how could Hogsmeade do a better job of protecting visitors and residents from security nightmares?
