The Shrieking Shack Chamber of Secrets Chronological

work 1

Shrieking Shack - Chronological

Sorcerer's Stone Chapters 1 - 4. On the inaugural episode of The Shrieking Shack, Liz and Xeecee read the first four chapters of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and discuss legally questionable Halloween costumes, Dudley Dursley's gaming habits, and getting sent to the closet for letting the snake out.

Episode 1: Letting the Snake Out

Sorcerer's Stone Chapters 5 - 6. Liz & Xeecee pay respect to the powerful side characters of Harry Potter - like Bill's questionably aged girlfriend and the shapeshifter who dies off-screen - before diving into the extremely expository chapters left before Harry Potter reaches Hogwarts. Goblin discourse awaits!

Episode 2: International Witch's Day

Sorcerer's Stone Chapters 7-8. It's time for the Sorting Ceremony! But before that, Liz and Xeecee celebrate the release of the political prisoner ItsHarryPotter and get into the nitty-gritty discourse of the new Crimes of Grindlewald trailer, including the moral quandaries of whether or not to even see it.

Episode 3: The Sorting Extravaganza

Sorcerer's Stone Chapters 9-10. This week Liz and Xeecee have practically nothing but good things to say about their reading, so to balance things out they discuss not one but TWO awful documentaries about J.K Rowling. (Harry Potter & Me and JK Rowling: A Year in the Life) Find out everything you never wanted to know about her stance on Wicca (she's not a fan) Minecraft (HUGE fan) and what her pal Stephen Fry has to say about "other fantasy" (it's for the feeble-minded) in this jam-packed episode!

Episode 4: Minecraft Steve

Sorcerer's Stone Chapters 11-13. It's slime time! Liz and xeecee talk about weird toy commercials and lovable Youtube reviews before diving into some, you guessed it, politics. Albus Dumbledorf. As for the book itself, nobody is much of a Quidditch fan but there's plenty nice to say about The Mirror of Erised and what a touching chapter it is. Albus Dumbledorf. Even with an extra chapter, there's still time to learn everything about Professor McGonagall's weird backstory! Albus Dumbledorf. Albus Dumbledorf. Albus Dumbledorf.

Episode 5: Albus Dumbledorf

Liz and xeecee take their own advice and read another book.

Welcome to the Bone Zone

Chamber of Secrets chapters 1 & 2. We've arrived! But before we indulge in our favorite house-elf, we have some housekeeping to do - namely, chatting about Hogwarts Mystery and the US premiere of Cursed Child. After we walk through the opening of the second book, we tackle our toughest assignment yet: answering random questions about Dobby from Reddit.

The Shrieking Shack

Episode 9: Indulgence

Chamber of Secrets chapters 3-4. We take a moment of silence to remember the fictional characters lost 20 years ago in a battle that didn't actually happen before discussing two chapters we actually really liked! Don't worry though, after all the positive feelings are out of the way we put on our thinking caps to design the "ultimate" Harry Potter video game.

Episode 10: Ghoul Studies

Chamber of Secrets chapters 5-6. We have a mystery guest this week... and we still love Lockhart, but there's much more to discuss: flying cars, Hermione's role as a character, mean teachers, and graphology! Oh, and character heights. A lot of really, really specific stuff about character heights.

Episode 11: Big Mood

Chamber of Secrets chapters 7-8. This week we talk about our dream houses and a Hogwarts for horses before discussing our reading. Quidditch is explained to us AGAIN, Ron is woke, and Harry is living in a Deus Ex game. Is this the end of CoS positivity? Has the basilisk finally turned?

Episode 12: Good Vibrations

Chamber of Secrets chapters 9-10. Dim the house lights and settle in for a hearty discussion of JKR's royal wedding antics and Hogwarts Mystery's royal screwup. Speaking of mysteries at Hogwarts, that whole Chamber of Secrets thing sure is getting weird, huh? We hope Harry like, does something, at some point. Like, anything.
