Summary
This week, Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of Vulnerability in Chapter 3 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! They discuss Dudley, Vernon, and Petunia’s respective vulnerabilities in this chapter! Throughout the episode we consider the question: how can showing vulnerability invite others to be more vulnerable themselves?
Today's episode is dedicated to Judith Giller Leinwahl, who helped shape this show and community.
Thank you to Emily for this week’s voicemail! Next week we're reading Chapter 4, The Seven Potters, through the theme of outrage.
