Don't listen to that, is just the ghoul! LOL. That was an... interesting idea, and incredibly funny

Great podcast, guys!

Oh that was too funny, and sick at the same time. Ghoul in the attic as a cover up for Molly and Arthur
As for are you smarter than a Slytherin Aurour well I'd certainly be game but I think first pick should be given to one of Leakys glamerous Grannys, (Mrs Longbottom v Dawlish you know what I mean)

I'm so excited that Lisa Wright DeGroodt is on this episode! The Quest Series are on my reading list (I am going to buy the first one this Saturday!).

Posted by: Questauthor Feb 7 2008, 08:21 PM

Yeah! It's up!


*Runs off to listen*

You did amazing on the podcast! I have never unfortunately read your books, but it was awesome to hear you guys talking on the show!
The ghoul and the attic party was soooo funny! I made an avatar about it in the PC avi thread.

Anyways, this pottercast was really great. Can't wait for more next week!

Good Pottercast! Melissa sounded like she was dying at some parts....tired? Loved to hear Lisa on the podcast, can't wait for next week!

That was just GREAT! Well done guys!!!

Yay Lisa!! I love your books, they're awesome!

Thanks John. I really needed that coffee spewing out my nose. I really did.

I gotta say, I never thought the ghoul in the attic was a euphemism for Molly and Arthur, well, you know... But now that you mention it (and after spewing coffee), it makes sense, kind of.

At least it clears up one thing. We all know where John's mind spends most of its time.

What a funny episode! I have to say that I'm pretty sure my co-workers think I'm a little on the crazy side. I listen to the new episodes while I'm at work and sometimes I just can't hold back the laughs! And this whole 'ghoul' thing, really got me! So thanks to John for that!

And Melissa...loved the Little Mermaid singing! I was singing that song for the rest of the day!

This Pottercast is great, my mom thought I was nuts when I started listening, I was laughing so hard. Then I had to go to school , and I couldn't take my iPod with me.

And Pottercast saves me from death by boredom once again during another long drive through the desert!!

Thanks for another great episode. You did a fantastic job Questauthor. I’m definitely going to have to make a trip to the bookstore soon.

*hopes I get called to play Are You Smarter than John Noe*

I really enjoyed this Pottercast and thought Lisa was a nice addition this week.

The rest of my family, except for my sister, had gone to bed when I was listening to this weeks episode and when John was talking about the ghoul I had to cover my mouth with both hand to stiffle my sniggering so I wouldn't wake anyone, my sister came into my room to ask what I was laughing at and I couldn't even begin to describe.

Keep up the excellent work pottercast staff, everyone from the trio to transcription elves, you guys make my week.

I can't help but smile really big everytime I listen to PotterCast while at work, but I usually do a pretty good job of not laughing out loud.
PotterCast 137 was one of those exceptions. I just couldn't contain myself!

Who's excited for Are YOU smarter than John Noe? I know I am!

My Goodness. The Ghoul in the Attic Discussion.... Oooooh Goodness.
