Casper and Vanessa explore the theme of Doubt in chapter twenty-five of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This week we appreciate Ron's role in the trio, debate the effectiveness of eye contact, and continue to grapple with what this book is trying to say about Goblins. Throughout the episode we consider the question: When do we know that our doubts are legitimate vs. just holding us back?

A New Podcast with Casper and Vanessa?(!)

It's official: We can't break up the band! With Casper leaving Harry Potter and the Sacred Text on the horizon, we've dreamt up a new podcast with Casper and Vanessa to keep you company in your earbuds. But we need your help to make it happen! Due to the impact of COVID, we don't have money in the Not Sorry budget to absorb the hours of a work that will go into make a new show. So we're hoping that you'll consider supporting The New Pod on patreon before the podcast officially launches. If we hit our goal, we can start churning out episodes. But even before the podcast launches, we'll be sending out plenty of perks to thank you for your support and keep you cozy while you wait for the pod.
