Would Voldemort have succeeded more in his goals if he relied on charm instead of terror? Hosts David and Kyle ponder this as they take a look at some of the new memories Dumbledore has procured: A visit back to where Lord Voldemort's mother grew up and then a tampered memory from Professor Slughorn, which opens up the concept of Horcruxes.
-
Hosts David and Kyle get their first in-depth look at the new Minister for Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour. It turns out the new Minister is different than his predecessor but more of the same when it comes to operating a functioning government. That, plus a return to the Burrow for Christmas, means we revisit Molly's reluctance to accept Fleur into the family and an update on what Remus Lupin has been up to.

There ain't no party like a Slughorn Party because a Slughorn Party don't stop. Hosts David and Kyle discuss the practicality of hosting such an extravagant party during peril and heightened security, and Harry's overheard conversation between Snape and Malfoy, which confirms a lot of his suspicions.
-
In the latest chapter re-cap, hosts David and Kyle dive into Ron's lucky day on the Quidditch pitch and how it shapes into an emotional rollercoaster as he and Hermione sort out their relationship.
-
Let's dive deeper into Lord Voldemort's villain origin story. Hosts David and Kyle break down Dumbledore's memory of meeting Tom Riddle Jr. for the first time: How his desire to be extraordinary started from an early age, how Harry and Voldemort's upbringings compared and contrasted, and how he probably could have been immortal if he wasn't obsessed with trinkets and trophies.
-
Harry continues down a reckless path of trusting everything that is written in his textbook by the Half-Blood Prince. Hosts David and Kyle discuss how this will backfire, and review the first trip of the school year to Hogsmeade, which ends in harm to Katie Bell and more suspicion on Draco Malfoy (if you're Harry, anyway).
-
How would hosts David and Kyle run a quidditch tryout? Probably not in the manner that Harry ran his. The hosts break down the ever-popular Gryffindor quidditch tryout, a resolution with Hagrid over not taking Care of Magical Creatures and if the price of textbooks are impacted by wizard inflation.
-
If you're into Harry Potter lore, then this is the episode for you. Hosts David and Kyle break down Harry and Dumbledore investigating Voldemort's villian origin story. And much like any other villain origin story, it starts with some generation trauma. Listen on as we explore Voldemort's parents: Merope Gaunt and Tom Riddle.
-
Isn't it fun when we get to the title chapters? This week classes start at Hogwarts, but this time hosts David and Kyle are taking it more in stride than previous books. The hosts discuss their first impressions of Snape in the Defence Against the Dart Arts role and the new Professor Slughorn in Potions. Also, there's a good amount of romantic foreshadowing in this book that is fun to pick up on during the re-read.
-
Harry and his friends are back at Hogwarts, and it got hosts David and Kyle thinking: What is the quickest it takes Harry to arrive at school in each of the books? Listen now and see how soon it takes the students to arrive at Hogwarts in The Half-Blood Prince compared to other books in the series; the answer may surprise you. Oh, and Snape finally achieves his life-long dream.
-
Hosts David and Kyle get another look at the new professor, Horace Slughorn, and one host finds his presence on the Hogwarts Express a little gross. Harry becomes fixated/obsessed with spying on Draco, which doesn't end well for him in this chapter. Plus, is Hermione a psychopath? The answer isn't necessarily a straight no.
-
Sneaky little Draco is off doing sneaky little things in Diagon Alley, so Harry, Ron and Hermione decide to try and be sneaky themselves in a chapter full of stealth, cabinets and extendable ears. Hosts David and Kyle discuss the success of Fred and George's new store and why it was very irresponsible for our three lead characters to sneak off after Draco Malfoy.
-
Harry is back at The Burrow and there is a surprise guest joining them this summer. Hosts David and Kyle discuss Harry's return to the Weasleys and their first impressions of how the main characters treat this new guest. Also, the hosts discuss that while the Ron/Hermione romance might come out of left field for many readers, a lot of off-page development occurs during chapters like this one.
-
It's what you Harry Potter fans are looking for 42 minutes on Horace Slughorn! Hosts David and Kyle break down their first impressions of Professor Slughorn along with the first conversation Dumbledore has with Harry adult-to-adult. Slughorn is an interesting character and our hosts have differing views on his first impression in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
-
It's a chapter that hosts David and Kyle had completely forgotten about during the latest reread podcast episode. This chapter almost reads like a crossover episode as Albus Dumbledore visits the Dursley's residence and soon whisks Harry away back into the magical world. Plus, what do "will" and "won't" exactly mean in this chapter?
-
Another chapter, not from the vantage point of Harry and hosts David and Kyle, are impressed. In this chapter, they discuss a meeting between Snape, Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange at Spinner's End. It starts with intrigue and ends with some pretty lofty promises. What's going on, and how does this chapter do such a good job of shaping Snape's character for the rest of the series?
-
Hosts David and Kyle are ecstatic to open the sixth season of the podcast and begin discussing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The book kicks off with one of the best opening chapters in the series
-
It is the longest book and the second shortest movie. Does Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix exceed the (low) expectations of the book? Hosts David and Kyle are joined by special guests for a round-table discussion about the fifth Harry Potter movie, including some new outstanding cast members, how the movie adaptation fares to the book and concepts that could have been different. Tune in now and stay tuned for the next season featuring a re-read of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
-
We made it! David and Kyle recap the final chapter of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and recap the book in general. Discussion includes their most and least favourite parts, what they had forgotten, and what they now think of the least-favoured book after a re-read. While there are certainly some ups and downs in the book, there's no denying how crucial this one is to setting up the overall plot. Enjoy!

David and Kyle celebrate 100 episodes of the Reread Podcast with the best chapter of the series so far. We see a range of emotions shared by Harry and Dumbledore in their most in-depth conversation yet. This chapter arguably begins the next Act of the overall series and our hosts are here for it.
