We're plunging into the darkness of dementors, exploring the secrets of the Marauder's map, and laughing along with the Weasley twins' hilarious antics. And, of course, no trip to Hogsmeade is complete without a butterbeer at our favorite pub: The Three Broomsticks.

Grab a butterbeer and join us for a fun-filled episode, capped off with a discussion of the chapter's shocking finale.
