Belated Binge Network
Re-posted from the Belated Binge main feed. Join Zac on his journey exploring some of the most iconic series in recent memory with morally grey characters. Like Harry Potter, which is a magical YA urban fantasy that is actually filled with characters that are complicated as hell - and we love them for it! Covering topics, chapters, books, and character decisions through the full Wizarding World. When there are characters like Albus Dumbledore, Sirius Black, James Potter, Severus Snape…. This story is far more complex than some kids playing with magic wands.

Sharing from the main feed when we continued our reread of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with Chapter 12: The Patronus. A lot of time passing through updates about whether or not Harry is getting his Firebolt back in time for Quidditch and many reminders that QUIDDITCH IS LIFE! More importantly, if anything could be more important than quidditch, Harry and Ron are still mad at Hermione and Harry has started private lessons with Lupin to teach him how to fight off the Dementors. Through these Patronus trainings, we get a lot of backstory about Harry's parents, Lupin's relationship with James and Sirius, and the emotions Harry is experiencing when the Dementors are near him. Also lots for foreshadowing!

I know it's been a little while but we left off 10 chapters into The Prisoner of Azkaban - so, I'm sharing the episode from the main feed when we picked up with chapter 11: The Firebolt! This one is not the most eventful chapter to welcome us back to the series, but there is a TON of foreshadowing throughout, delivered during conversations that Harry, Ron and Hermione have with Hagrid, their Christmas present banter, and at the Christmas lunch with Professor's Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, and Trelawney.

Will the Harry Potter TV Show be successful?! If they make it like THIS, it will be! In this short episode I share my thoughts on how to make sure the new series on Max works for everyone, whether they’re brand new viewers, potterheads or HP movie fans! DISCLAIMER: I recorded this for YouTube (https://youtu.be/ZUZKN4GCGxEback) in June but never shared it on the feed. So, there are updates about the TV show that I didn’t have back when I made it. It still holds up, it’s just not meant to be a “latest news on the TV show” episode.
Dumbledore's Master Plan is a familiar topic in the Harry Potter fandom. But is it real? And did Dumbledore actually care about Harry? I think my view on how the plan developed will surprise you!

I know it's been a long time since I've posted, life has made consistent content a challenge. But, this topic idea wouldn't let go of me, so I hit record! There is plenty of discourse among the fandom about whether Harry should have ended up with Ginny or someone else. But who else should it have been if it wasn't Ginny? I think my choice will surprise you!

Find Pottership Podcast: https://linkin.bio/pottershippodcastI was super excited to be joined by the trio from Pottership Podcast to discuss Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban chapter 10, The Marauders Map! We had a blast going through the chapter and touching on why Fred and George never noticed Peter Pettigrew sleeping with their brother Ron, how convenient it was that Harry stumbled across Ron and Hermione so quickly after sneaking to Hogsmeade, what an odd group hanging out Fudge, Hagrid, Flitwick, and McGonagall were and why they would be spilling all the tea of Sirius Black and James Potter's relationship to the bartender Madam Rosmerta!

Hi I’m Zac - Welcome to Belated Binge Harry Potter - in part the story of how a sports fanatic became a potterhead! Because despite growing up through the hype and looking quite a bit like Harry himself - I didn’t read these books until my mid twenties! Why did I finally read them?? Without going into too many details in the trailer of all places, I’ll just do what most married men get to. Blame my wife! Regardless of who’s fault it is, when I was around 25 a potterhead came bursting out of me like a raging monster in my chest! So I decided to start a podcast, rereading the books and talking about each chapter. A novel concept that only about 1,000 other people were already doing in the Harry Potter fandom at the same time. Now I discuss it with a bunch of them! We go on each others podcasts and it’s great as I strive to answer some of the hardest hitting questions in the fandom like: What did Dumbledore know and when did he know it? Why does Harry only ever learn 2 spells? Are there any competent adults in the wizarding world - anywhere??? You’ll hear a few sports metaphors giving way to spell puns, deep dives into character motivations, theories and a fairly regular spotlight on our beloved headmaster Albus Dumbledore. There will be spoilers! There will be language! There will be laughter! So grab your wand, your cloak, steal an owl from the zoo and join me on this Belated Binge of Harry Potter! Maybe don’t actually steal the owl..

We're diving back into the binge of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban with chapter 6, Talons and Tealeaves. For this discussion I'm joined by Dan from Hogwarts: A Podcast (https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hogwarts-a-podcast).This is the chapter where Trelawney predicts Harry's death in Divination class because she sees a big black dog aka the Grim in a teacup. Then Hagrid makes Harry ride a Hippogriff named Buckbeak after he successfully pets him in Care of Magical Creatures. Unfortunately, Draco Malfoy isn't a fan of Harry getting attention or in paying attention to Hagrid's warnings. So, he insults Buckbeak and gets clawed up as a result of his actions.Throughout the discussion we'll rate Draco's ability as a school bully. Dan will defend Trelawney's abilities as a teacher and seer. We'll talk about Hagrid's qualification for teaching, Dumbledore's loose ship, how there must be good Slytherins we don't see and a lot of other fun stuff!Find Dan on Twitter or X: https://twitter.com/HogwartsAPod and Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hogwartsapod/For bonus episodes as well as many other benefits such as early access, show prep notes, personal shoutouts, and more BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge*Free trial availableI'd also love for you to join the discussion, which you can do in 2 key ways: Leaving a voicemail on my website: https://www.belatedbinge.com/ Joining the new free Facebook Group for listeners of the show: https://www.facebook.com/groups/688037702835574/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/belatedbinge Instagram: https://instagram.com/belatedbinge Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/belatedbinge TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@belatedbinge YouTube: https://youtube.com/@belatedbinge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/6feyaCsf8OxQY8cumcQtox?si=9df77d0dee0742ab Apple: https://music.apple.com/us/album/worth-the-wait-single/1627714792 Find Belated Binge on social media:Show theme song: 'Worth the Wait' by Zac S.

We've had some amazing Harry Potter discussions on this podcast, but it's time to binge!As we dive back into the 3rd book, Prisoner of Azkaban, I thought it would be good to reset on where we left off.In the first 5 chapters of POA, Harry has successfully managed to leave the Dursleys, in quite dramatic fashion. He's had a mini vacation in Diagon Alley with a hotel room to himself and all the ice cream he can eat. He's been reunited with the Weasleys and Hermione as well.He's also been seeing a big black dog figure that he later learns is a death omen, found out that Sirius Black, who was convicted of mass murder, has escaped the wizard prison called Azkaban. And he's also come face to face with the 'Azkaban Guards' aka Dementors forcing him to relive his trauma and pass out on the Hogwarts Express.But he also met Remus Lupin, ate some chocolate, and Hermione had a secret meeting with Professor McGonagall - which turns out to be a time turner.I'll also share my favorite feedback from you on the Expecto Plotchango questions so far!For bonus episodes as well as many other benefits such as early access, show prep notes, personal shoutouts, and more BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge*Free trial availableI'd also love for you to join the discussion, which you can do in 2 key ways: Leaving a voicemail on my website: https://www.belatedbinge.com/ Joining the new free Facebook Group for listeners of the show: https://www.facebook.com/groups/688037702835574/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/belatedbinge Instagram: https://instagram.com/belatedbinge Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/belatedbinge TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@belatedbinge YouTube: https://youtube.com/@belatedbinge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/6feyaCsf8OxQY8cumcQtox?si=9df77d0dee0742ab Apple: https://music.apple.com/us/album/worth-the-wait-single/1627714792 Find Belated Binge on social media:Show theme song: 'Worth the Wait' by Zac S.

Today is a bit of a retrospective episode because I realized that after we finished chamber of secrets. We never did a book wrap episode or in our case… give away any BINGIES!!! I went on vacation. Posted some bonus and guest episodes I’d done and then we jumped right into Prisoner of Azkaban. With all the new binges starting up and whatnot I didn’t even realize I missed it.So I figured before we gear up to restart our chapter by chapter episode coverage of prisoner of azkaban - I’d go back and give out my Bingies for chamber of secrets after I give some updates on the podcast and ask for YOUR FEEDBACK.For bonus episodes and more cool stuff, check out Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBingeThis includes access to my Sons of Anarchy sequel fanfic I started back in 2020 that I'm now reading for Bonus Binge Squad and above Patrons!I'd love for you to join the discussion, which you can do on Patreon, or 2 other key ways: Leaving a voicemail on my website: https://www.belatedbinge.com/ Joining the FREE Facebook Group for listeners of the show: https://www.facebook.com/groups/688037702835574/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/belatedbinge Instagram: https://instagram.com/belatedbinge Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/belatedbinge TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@belatedbinge YouTube: https://youtube.com/@belatedbinge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/6feyaCsf8OxQY8cumcQtox?si=9df77d0dee0742ab Apple: https://music.apple.com/us/album/worth-the-wait-single/1627714792 Find Belated Binge on social media:Show theme song: 'Worth the Wait' by Zac S.
