Harry Potter podcast that doesn’t take itself or the books too Siriusly! That’s probably because I didn’t read them until I was a grown man. Now I’m taking you back to Hogwarts in hopes of answering some of the most important questions in the fandom like: What did Albus Dumbledore know and when did he know it? Why does Harry Potter only know 2 spells? Are there any competent adults in the Wizarding World? Featuring a healthy balance of exciting theories and character exploration while also calling the books on their BS when appropriate! Join me and the Potterhead friends I’m making along the way, whether you want to re-binge the series yourself, or let us do it for you!

Prison Break Chamber of Secrets Ch 3

Belated Binge: Harry Potter

This week on the Binge, we covered Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' third chapter: The Burrow. In this chapter Harry is broken out of Cell Block 4, Prison Drive. In a flying car. Like you do.... Oh, and it's driven by children, across the country, into a muggle suburb. And nobody notices..... I also shine a light (lumos) on Fred & George Weasley, my theory on how much they like tinkering on muggle stuff with their dad and how that was the start of their joke shop. We do some divination foreshadowing, give house points, and callout the parts of the chapter that are utterly riddikulus!

This week on the Binge, we covered Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' 6th chapter: Gilderoy Lockhart. In this chapter Ron gets a howler. We learn about mandrakes. We meet a couple new characters that will be important to the plot and we have our first defense against the dark arts lesson with the new professor who proves to be an egotistical douchebag and is clearly incompetent. We also shine a light (Lumos) on why Dumbledore let Lockhart teach at Hogwarts. We do some Divination foreshadowing, give/take house points, and callout the parts of the chapter that are utterly Riddikulus!

Have you ever thought about sorting the Avengers into Hogwarts houses? Would you rather have a magic wand or super powers? What Harry Potter character would you love to see in a Marvel movie? Welcome to belated binge, the Harry Potter podcast that doesn’t take itself or the books too seriously. Which happens when you don’t read them until you’re a grown man! I’m Zac, the grown man, and those are just a few of the many questions I discussed with Taylor (Let's Talk: Marvel Fan Theories) and shared as a bonus episode on Patreon. Now as a holiday treat, I’m adding it to the main feed while I take a break from recording chapter episodes for the holidays. I hope they’re treating you well and that you enjoy this bonus conversation!

Wizarding World Politics are Riddikulus!

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Chapter 14, Cornelius Fudge discussion continues as I reveal my favorite foreshadow moments, give and take some house points, and call out what I thought was Riddikulus! Divination: “Riddle might have got the wrong person,” said Hermione. “Maybe it was some other monster that was attacking people. . . .” “How many monsters d’you think this place can hold?” Ron asked dully. “We always knew Hagrid had been expelled,” said Harry miserably. “And the attacks must’ve stopped after Hagrid was kicked out. Otherwise, Riddle wouldn’t have got his award.” “Look at it from my point of view,” said Fudge, fidgeting with his bowler. “I’m under a lot of pressure. Got to be seen to be doing something. If it turns out it wasn’t Hagrid, he’ll be back and no more said. But I’ve got to take him. Got to. Wouldn’t be doing my duty —” “See here, Malfoy, if Dumbledore can’t stop them,” said Fudge, whose upper lip was sweating now, “I mean to say, who can?” “That remains to be seen,” said Mr. Malfoy with a nasty smile. “But as all twelve of us have voted —” Hagrid leapt to his feet, his shaggy black head grazing the ceiling. “An’ how many did yeh have ter threaten an’ blackmail before they agreed, Malfoy, eh?” he roared. “you will find that I will only truly have left this school when none here are loyal to me. You will also find that help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it.” House points: I’m giving house points to: Hermione for solving the whole book and getting petrified in the process - 50 I’m taking house points away from: Everyone Ginny for stealing the diary back when the attacks would have stopped otherwise - that’s my theory anyway 35 Ron and Harry - for letting Hermione go alone and giving aabout quidditch instead of going with her and heaven forbid going for help when they knew an attack was imminent 25 each Fudge for being an idiot and taking Hagrid to jail 20 Malfoy for getting Dumbledore suspended 30 Dumbledore for not going scorched earth and shutting all thisdown when you know he could have 20 Riddikulus: Harry and Ron let Hermione go to the library alone when they knew a muggleborn was about to be attacked because... quidditch Cornelius fudges incompetence is only a glimpse of what’s to come Lucious Malfoy being able to just show up with a note and Dumbledore is suspended The fact that it took this long for Hogwarts to go on lockdown in the first place If you enjoy podcast and want more benefits and content, BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge I'd also love for you to join the discussion by leaving a voicemail on my website: https://www.belatedbinge.com/ Find Belated Binge on social media: 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 Thanks for listening!!!! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/belated-binge/support

This week on the Binge, we covered Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' 7th chapter: Mudbloods and Murmurs. In this chapter we get hints of obsession, stalking, some bribery, a heavy dose of blood status racism and perhaps a hint of budding courtship. It's a heavy-themed chapter for a kids book. We lighten (Lumos) the mood with a quidditch chat. We do some Divination foreshadowing, give/take House Points, and callout the parts of the chapter that are utterly Riddikulus!

Grand Theft FLYING Auto with Garrett Chamber of Secrets Ch 5

This week on the Binge, we covered Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' 5th chapter: The Whomping Willow with a special guest: Garrett from the Rank 'Em podcast (https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-rank-em-podcast). In this chapter Harry lets Ron call the shots, which leads to them committing grand theft auto, flying without a pilot's license, are spotted by muggles, are almost murdered by a tree and nearly get expelled. Snape gets to live out his biggest fantasy up until the point Dumbledore crushes his hopes and dreams. We also shine a light (Lumos) on where we are with Dumbledore at this point in the story. Does he care about Harry? Is Harry just a chess piece? Why is the Whomping Willow STILL at Hogwarts? Garrett skipped the homework, but we still do some Divination foreshadowing, give/take house points, and callout the parts of the chapter that are utterly Riddikulus!

Hi! Since we're in between seasons, I'm taking a few weeks off from new episodes while gearing up for season 2 covering Chamber of Secrets. In the meantime, I've decided to share a few of my favorite bonus episodes nobody has gotten to hear yet. This week we had a special guest host, Sarah from First Years podcast (https://anchor.fm/first-years-podcast). In this bonus episode we discuss Slytherin house, house bias, the Sorting Hat, Harry as a Slytherin (spoiler: I disagree) Slytherin representation, and of course a couple of everyone's favorite Slytherins: Draco and Snape! It was a great discussion! If you enjoy this episode, check out the benefits available on https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge, which include access to all of the bonus episodes I've posted thus far! I'm also excited to share updates to those benefits coming for season 2!

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone - The Boy Who Lived It's here!!!

The re-binge of Harry Potter has officially begun. The first episode of the Belated Binge podcast covers the first chapter of the series which begins on an iconic opening line through the eyes of Vernon Dursley who is NOT the main character. He’s a stick in the mud on his best day and this wasn’t his best day. Too many abnormal things happening for his liking. Once he goes to sleep the real story begins as Albus Dumbledore drops off baby Harry Potter. On the doorstep, which is exactly what you do with an infant! Much of the discussion puts a magnifying glass on Dumbledore, the information he's keeping close to the vest during his discussions with Professor McGonagall and Hagrid, and the foundation of his master plan. I share some of my thoughts and theories, also some of my favorite foreshadow moments from the chapter.

More than Just a Meme Sorcerer’s Stone Ch. 10 & 11

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone, Halloween and Quidditch

Harry and Ron become Sherlock Holmes and Watson and this chapter has the iconic movie scene turned viral internet meme "It's LeviOsa not LeviosA" or however you spell it. While Hermione looks very smart and talented, it doesn't make Ron feel very good to be shown up by his Charms partner. His reaction was... not great. He says some mean things about Hermione, leading her to spend the rest of the day in the girls bathroom, crying.

At the Halloween feast, Quirrelldemort pulls his troll nonsense, which is a plot line I touch on thoroughly and sparked this week's bonus episode "Trolling Dumbledore" which is available to Free Elf Patrons and above (https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge). We then get a TON of action with Harry and Ron saving Hermione from the troll with a well placed wand up the nose and a successful pronunciation from Ron dropping a club on the troll's head. This naturally forms our Golden Trio (finally). Quidditch was highlighted by Harry nearly plummeting to his death from a broomstick, which becomes bit of a theme in these books... This time of course, it was Quirrell trying to kill him. Oh, and Hermione catches Snape ON FIRE!!!

I also put the character spotlight on Neville, discuss my favorite foreshadows and have some special announcements!

Ride or Die from Day 1 Sorcerer’s Stone Ch 6 & 7

Belated Binge: Harry Potter

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone, The Journey to Platform 9 3/4 & The Sorting Hat

On The Journey to Platform 9 3/4, we meet the Weasleys! Sparking the inspiration for this week's exclusive bonus episode "MI7 Kids" about Molly Weasley and her role in Dumbledore's master plan. This is available for Free Elf Patrons and above (https://www.patreon.com/BelatedBinge).

The introduction to the Weasleys is quite the saving grace for Harry after the Dursleys leave him alone at Kings Cross train station to be kidnapped by anyone while he tries to figure out where Platform 9 3/4 is. It also begins the single most important friendship of Harry's life (Ron Weasley of course), which I defend in this episode. They nearly throw down with Malfoy and his goons on the Hogwarts Express before meeting the future 3rd member of the golden trio Hermione Granger.

In The Sorting Hat, all 3 of our main characters get sorted into Gryffindor. I'll put a focus on Ron as a character, foreshadow what's to come, theorize about what would happen without the Harry & Ron train ride (possible Draco Malfoy friendship??), and of course give away episode awards!
