Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Book four, page five hundred ninety seven. May I have
your attention? Please? May I have your attention? Please?

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Well, the real Weird Sisters, please stand up. We're gonna
have a problem here.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
We're the Weird Sisters, were the real Weird Sisters. All
you are the Weird Sisters.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Of Fine and not the Bakers.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Well, the real Weird Sisters.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Please stand up, Please stand up, Please stand up.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hi, and welcome to the Real Weird Sisters.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I'm Martha and I'm Alice, and today we're here to
talk about the five hundred and ninety seventh page of
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. We're just on
a Goblet of Fire kick these last four weeks with
our two take fives in a row and another Goblet
of Fire o Pat the week before that. So just
it's the summer of Goblet of Fire.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
It is the it is the Goblet of Fire summer,
and it is the furthest we've read in.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
A book so far. That's true.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
Yeah, and I I don't remember what we predicted, but
I don't think we were right.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
No, I think we predicted like the second or sorry,
I think we predicted the beginning of the third task
or even I think you might have said the madness
of mister Crouch.

Speaker 4 (01:14):
Yeah, which pretty sure that's what I said, which.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Is which is yeah, very close.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
I kind of like forget about this scene being part
of the fourth book, or I guess maybe forget about
it being later in the fourth book.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
It kind of everything with the fourth book like kind
of is like, oh, that's there, like where it's if
it's not one of.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
The tasks or the right, right, there's there is a
lot of stuff outside of the tasks, and I agree
it kind of does get forgotten.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
So yeah, just it's not to get to ahead of ourselves.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
But this is a scene after Harry falls into the
pencil the pond SI.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
The chapter title is the Pensive, So it's one of
those chapter titles that does in fact indicate what's happening
in this page, right, although we all just emerge from it,
but this is where we get the actual the titular
pensive mention. Harry didn't know what he what it was
that he fell into until Dumbledore announces. This is I

(02:08):
think also our first correct me if I'm wrong, but
our first Dumbledore appearance in the opat series.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yeah, we've hardly I don't know if he's been in
it at all. He might have been like mentioned, but
not like present. Yeah that's what I was thinking too,
And I guess this page we can rather than calling
it into the pond, se we call it out of
the pond.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
See that's true.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yes, oo TP it kind of kind.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Well, anyway, this is going to be a very fun
page to talk about, I think because with our band
name and album of the week, uh like Dumbledore's double
Door is full of phrases that I think will work
very well for that.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Okay, yeah, I'm excited.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
I I enjoy getting to talk about Dumbledore every time
we get the chance to.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
So speaking of band names, we do have to, of
course remember back to two and a half weeks ago, now,
I guess three weeks if you're listening to this, live
to our band name and album name from last week,
which was page for Sorry book four, page three fifty
eight of I'm Sorry, same book. So our band names

(03:22):
kind of close race. Actually we had a tie for
second place, and it was really came down to just
a few votes, but our winner was full of Adrenaline,
which I do think is probably the best one of
these four.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
It's probably like a punk rock or a metal band. Chat.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, I think that's probably right. I definitely could be
one or the other. It's hard to say which. But
back to close vote for album name. We actually had
a tie for first, and I think we're gonna have
to break the tie today because we didn't do a
tiebreaker vote on Instagram, so our two Interestingly, our two

(04:01):
losers were just one vote within each other. One got
four votes and one got five fingernail marks on her
face and staring at Harry. They're both out, So we're
going to be deciding between our two winners, both with
forty percent of the vote.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Nothing to cry about? And how does it feel now? Well,
and I'm surprised.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
My personal favorite was fingernail marks on her face, especially
for a heavy metal or a pun.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Punk rock bad Yeah exactly. I like always say punk rock.
It's punk makes us sound really cool?

Speaker 4 (04:36):
Okay, but honestly, both of those are pretty good. Nothing
to cry about? And how does it feel now? Do
you have one that you're feeling more strongly about the
thing is, we're gonna if one of us votes for
each of them, are going to continue to have a tie.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Well, I know, I don't think that we.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
I think we have to say what our gut is,
each of us to see if we do have a
tie again.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
So we're not going to negotiate this year. We're each
going to.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Say what our gut is. I really like going back
for to be honest, that's what I was going to say.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Do is I keep going back and forth with which
one I like better, But let's let's just each share
what I what we think the winner is. Okay, I
think mine will be nothing to cry about. Mine will
be taking nothing to cry about as well. So okay,
all right, Yeah they're both. They're both good though I
like how does it feel now.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
A lot as well.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah, so all right, I think both would work well
for like either a heavy metal or like punk band.
It's hard rock, punk rock, whatever it is, you kids
listen to.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Exactly exactly punk rock, all right.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
So our winner for the band is full of adrenaline
and our winner for the album is nothing to cry about.
All right, So without further ado, now I think it's
time we jump right into reading page five hundred ninety seven,
and want to be clear that it does start in
the middle of a sentence. We will not be reading
the first part of the sentence, so we'll have to
figure out exactly what could be what it's said.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
Possibly talking about Yes, all right, the cabinet in front
of him, and Albus Dumbledore was standing beside him.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Professor Harry gasped, I know, I shouldn't.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
I didn't mean the cabin door was sort of open,
and I quite understand, said Dumbledore.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
He lifted the basin, carried it over to his desk,
placed it upon the polished top, and sat down in
the chair behind it. He motioned for Harry to sit
down opposite him. Harry did so, staring at the stone basin.
The contents had returned to their original silvery white state,
swirling and rippling beneath his gaze. What is it, Harry

(06:45):
asked shakily. This it is called upon sieve, said Dumbledore.
I sometimes find, and I'm sure you know, the feeling
that I simply have too many thoughts and memories crammed
into my mind. Uh, said Harry, who couldn't truthfully say
that he had ever felt anything.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Of the sort at these times.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Said Dumbledore, indicating the stone basin, I use.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
The poncef one simply siphons the excess thoughts from one's mind,
pours them into the basin, and examines them at one's leisure.
It becomes easier to spot patterns and lynks you understand
when they are in this form. You mean that stuffs
your thoughts.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Harry said, staring at the swirling white substance in the basin.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Certainly said, Dumbledore, let me show you.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
Dumbledore drew his wand out of the inside of his
robes and placed the tip into his own silvery hair
near his temple. When he took the wand away, hair
seemed to be clinging to it.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
But then end scene.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
I have to say, I don't really know what Dumbledore's
voice sounds like, and I have to.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
Say I was.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
I was.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
It's been a while since I've tried to do the
Jim Dale voice, so I think.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
You nailed it. Okay, I think you sounded great.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
We do know one thing about Dumbledore, though, he says,
pon Seve.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
That's that's definitely true and definitely not something we made
up from watching the movies.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Wrong. Yeah, I also.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Want to say that I don't actually think Harry has
a dumb voice, but I think that this is kind
of a dub page for Harry, right, why his voice
sounded a little bit like dunce cappy Well.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Burn of the Week was Martha's voice of Harry. Yeah,
that's true.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
I don't know, he kind of had a lot of
like that's I mean, the burn of the week.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
It's right there.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
Of Harry couldn't truthfully say he had ever felt anything
of the sort.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
Yeah, that was kind of I mean, it's good that
he recognizes himself, right, Yeah, but it's like he hadn't
ever felt anything of the sort.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
I mean, I guess when you're fourteen, it's probably i
mean less likely to experience something like that.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Yeah, I think like he you know, in a few years,
maybe he'll be feeling differently.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Uh, he couldn't truthfully say that he never felt anything
of the sort. It's kind of a bird too, that
a hair a dubl door saying I am sure you
know the feeling, Like maybe double Doore is sure that
Harry doesn't know the feeling.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
That was sort of a that was sort of Dumbledore's
humble brag.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
Oh, definitely, I simply have too many thoughts and memories
crammed into my mind.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Oh, congrats double doore.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yeah, I mean not are we are we doing humble.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Brag of the week because the might as well.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, the other one I thought of when it said
that he placed the basin on the polished topsk.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
I thought the same thing when you read it. I
didn't think of it. I read it by myself, and
I was set the polished up. I was like, oh wow,
double Door's office is so clean, like it's such a
shiny top. But it's also like, okay, well, the house
elves are probably the ones who are yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Double Door, way to take credit for that when it
wasn't even you, right, it's a little bit of a
I mean, it's sort of the same thing where he
says simply again, but one simply siphons the excess thoughts
from one's mind.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Oh yeah, simple as that. Yeah, way to go, Double Door.
It's so it's so simple.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Yeah. I don't know if there's any other obvious tumble brags.
I mean, I think another kind of bird that's sort
of hidden there is that stuffs your thoughts.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
That was my thought as well. I was like, okay, Harry, like.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
I don't know what you think your thoughts look like,
but I don't know if they look any better than that.
I'd also call it that stuff that stuffs your thoughts. Really,
that's what they look like, Double Dore.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
I just love the word stuff is so like like.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
I mean, you could just say that's your thoughts or like.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
That stuff that stuffs your thoughts.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
He sounds like so like disturbed.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
Right, Yeah, So I think we've got a couple of
contenders here.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
I kind of feel like that that stuff's your thoughts
is the better the best of the week?

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Yeah, and then I.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
Mean the the couldn't truthfully say what is pretty good too?

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Yeah, that's that's sort of like a burn on oneself,
Like Harry doesn't even say that out loud, right, right,
But yeah, we're actually kind of rife with adverb adverbs here,
although it's kind of an ad adverb kind of a
different adverb week because there's only one that's modifying.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
The dialogue, which is Harry asked shakily. But like I said,
double Doore does say the word simply twice. We also
have truthfully. I thought there were more, but maybe there's
not as many as I think.

Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yeah, I guess this is an adjective his silvery hair
that I mean that is that's an adjective. I just
like it stood out to me for some reason.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Well, yeah, it's Silvery's on there a couple different times.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
I am always really tempted to give simply that for
the week, just because that's the one that we talk
about the most. But I think we probably do have
to say shakily just because it is modifying.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
Harry asked, Yeah, I mean I think it's it's a
good one there too, because it shows his state. As
we were just talking about silvery, though, I realized that
there is kind of another burn of the week in here,
because Dumbledore puts his wand against his temple, next to
his silvery hair, and then as he pulls the wand away,

(12:47):
it says hair seemed to be clinging to it. Now,
this is a little bit going on to the next
I mean I didn't read the next page, but I
hope not. But it's the ponds, it's his thoughts, and
so it's kind of a burn on Dumbledore.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Oh your hair looks just like your thoughts.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Well, I actually thought that it was almost a humble
brag too, of like, oh your hair is so gorgeous,
silvery white.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
Yeah, but like it's it looks the thoughts look just
like his hair.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Yeah, yeah, it's kind of a stretch, but yeah, I
see it for sure, for sure. Okay, But anyway, a
new segment I thought we could start doing with these
opats is count a dialogue count of how many different
ways the author says said, because that's something that we
kind of talk about. This is kind of what we
were going for with the act right thing, right, Yeah,

(13:35):
we only actually have two other ones besides said on
this page. But should we count if it's has a
said with an adverb to.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Well, I feel like that's kind of two different things. Okay,
all right, Well we.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Have gasped as yeah, gosped osked and maybe that's it.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, I think gasped is the most like unique one.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Well, I'm not saying we have to give an award
to it. I'm saying we should a count account every week.
So this page has two in addition to said, Okay, yeah,
so but I'd like to find I'd like to find
a page that has like ten, because I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
There is multiple, Sure there are. Yeah, so this this.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
One has two alternates to said, And I mean, actually,
maybe we should do do it as a ratio because
we have how many how many lines of dialogue two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
So I guess it's a two to six ratio, so
one to three, right, Okay, that's that's not great. Yeah, okay,

(14:41):
so our dialogue ratio is two to six or one
to three ratio of non sense to SAIDs yes, okay,
let's move on to was this page in the movie?
I think it we can say, yes, it's not exactly.
I mean, this whole pond sive scene in the movie

(15:02):
is a little bit different.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Than it is in the book, obviously, right.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
I feel like it was one that we.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
We roasted pretty thoroughly on the take five. But yes,
it is in the movie. It's maybe not like one
to one exact dialogue translations, right, we do.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
See not Christopher Columbus directed, so we can't.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
It's not Christopher Columbus directed, and it is Michael Gambin,
so yes, it's it's going to be quite different.

Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
Oh, I instead of saying like one simply siphons the
excess thoughts, it probably like.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
I find that I have to take the.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
Thoughts out of my brain and it just like starts rambling,
you know.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
Yeah, and and starts rambling like where you can't really
even understand what he's talking about.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Yeah, exactly. In Dreams, we.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Under a world he's entirely our own.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
In the Pond Sieve.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
We enter a world which is entire we've never reade
that joke before.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Well that's what he's doing, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yeah, I mean I think I'm trying to remember in
the movie exactly, like how much explaining Dumbledore does do
about the pensive. But I think there's there's quite a bit, right.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, I much. I think he goes into a fair
amount of detail. Yeah, but it's just it's it's.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
Michael Gambon, So once again, it makes it a little
bit tough to stomach.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Right, are we taking this page with us?

Speaker 3 (16:24):
I think that honestly, out of all the pages of
this uh chapter, this is probably one of the least
important ones. Like I think Dumbledore like in a couple pages,
Dumbledore and Harry have a I have like a more
in depth talk about what they watched in the pon Sieve.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
Yeah, I mean this is important because this is when
we get our explanation of what the Pond Sieve is like,
right to understand it?

Speaker 1 (16:44):
But yeah, it's not exactly pivotal.

Speaker 4 (16:47):
In like what's happening, Like it's it's more of just
an explainer page.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
Yeah, exactly, So I mean it's kind of a I
wouldn't say it's necessarily super necessary. Should we start doing
like a out of ten ranking or rating for the page.

Speaker 4 (17:03):
Maybe that would be out of ten rating for what
just like how much we liked the page. I mean
I would put this one out probably like a six
or a seven, Like it's it's fairly entertaining, like as
far as Harry's reactions to things, and you know, this
is interesting world building. I mean, the Pond Sieve has
some weird stuff with it where I'm like, is that

(17:24):
really consistent? But like this is the basis for learning
about the Pond Sieve.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
So yeah, I would say it's a seven.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Yeah, I would say a seven, like because, like you said,
it's not just explaining. We do have some humor with
Harry being kind of uh.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Like kind of like being the.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
I don't know what the role is here, but the
person who doesn't know what he's talking about at all
or right well, he's.

Speaker 4 (17:51):
Like I don't know if there's a word for that
or what they call it, but it's like he's alongside
the audience learning what.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
The pon sieve is, right exactly.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
So yeah, I think that'll be fun.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
I mean, we do the page ranking at the end
or the page you know, King of the Hill ranking,
but I think just to kind of have a page
score every week might be a good thing to start doing.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
What do you think? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Sure, Okay, so seven out of ten for this one
I liked.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
I like ten.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
I know five stars is kind of the like, yeah,
but we get a lot more gradation with ten, I
think because we try to.

Speaker 4 (18:26):
Do five, like they're gonna end up like with a
lot of threes and fours and we're gonna agree that
we're not gonna do decimals then, right, sure.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Because that that's one of my like really low stakes
pet peeves. I feel like it's when people do a
five star rating or ten star rating or not, you know,
so ten but pet point rating, They're like, I think
this is.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
A seven point two six. I'm like, what is that?

Speaker 3 (18:50):
Like, that's still do it out of one hundred then? Yeah, exactly,
like you won't do it out of a thousand six, right,
But I'm like, I just feel like you shoot you
have to.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
We did our ranking out of a thousand, and we'll
say this would be about a seven hundred and twenty six.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
That's what they sound like when they're doing that.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
There's that's a really common thing like on podcasts.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Not that I even listen to podcasts watch anymore, but
like I remember like that that would be a thing
that I'd get bothered by when I people would be like,
what would you give this out of ten?

Speaker 2 (19:24):
I would like an eight point one four, Like.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
I mean, I feel like you're exaggerating a little bit,
like it's usually just going to like the tenths, not
to the hundred.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
And I will say, like, I get it with a
five star when you want to do a four point
five like that.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
Yeah, that's but that's the one thing, like the point fives.
I kind of get it. But then it's like, okay,
well then put it out a twenty Yeah, but then people.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
Start doing a point five there out on a point
two seven eighty four. But I yeah, and like I'm
very principled about this one good Reads in letterbox, Like
when I think it's a four point five, I have
to decide, am I going to give it four? Am
I going to give it five. I'm not going to
do it four point five. And if you do that,

(20:06):
that's fine. I just personally, like, I'm saying, this is
a very very low stakes pet peeve, and I know
it isn't the.

Speaker 4 (20:12):
Letterboxed is it has the option for the point fives.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
So I feel like then they should just do it
out of ten.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Yeah, but the thing is good Reads not good Reads
doesn't have the option. But people frequently will just like
put it in their review, like they'll rate it four stars.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
And then they'll put in their review four point five. Right, Yes,
I have seen people do that.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
Yeah, but like so I don't know, I mean, I
get it, like wanting to there with a five star.
There really isn't. That's why we're doing ten. That's why
we're doing ten points because exactly five there's just not.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Enough like difference. I mean, you just end up with
a ton.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Of fours, basically a ton of threes fours, yeah, exactly. Yeah,
and then it's like, really, this was a sixty percent,
but really what you're saying, like it's it's actually just
like middle of the road. But yeah, right, we are
gonna officially declare there are no decimolds we are doing
a ten point rating, and it's just a gut feeling
of what would I what's the I mean, like.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Out of ten?

Speaker 2 (21:08):
What would you give this on a proficiency scale if
you will?

Speaker 3 (21:10):
I'm okay, so this is a seven out of ten, yes,
I mean really it's probably more like a six point
eight seven, four.

Speaker 4 (21:19):
But I would I would go down before up.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
On that one. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
We don't want to quickly go back through the other
ones and give.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
Them each a rating, do we.

Speaker 4 (21:31):
No, I don't think I remember them enough to be honest, like,
I mean, I.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
I vaguely remember it.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
But yeah, but just like the only one I could
probably stay off the top of my head, elf Tails,
that one would probably be like a.

Speaker 3 (21:43):
Ten, yeah, I mean maybe a nine though, honestly, yeah,
just is so funny. Yeah, Alice is doing a good
job keeping up with the spreadsheet where she's putting a
little summary of each page. So on maybe maybe next
week we can come back with our ratings and not
have to do it on the fly, right, I think
we could probably come up with a rating for each

(22:04):
of these, and elf Tails, I would say I don't
think it's a perfect ten. I would say it's a nine.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
Yeah, that's probably true, but.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Just because I feel like a perfect ten is gonna
be like it has it hits all the boxes of
humor and content, and like I mean, elf Tail's is pretty.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Much just like if that's a nine, then how is
this a seven?

Speaker 3 (22:24):
I mean, I think we're gonna have a lot of seven's,
eight and nines because we love these books, you know
what I mean, Like we're not gonna have pretty much.
I don't think we're gonna have any ones or two's, right,
And that's fine. I mean, I think that just shows
that we do really love these books. And that's that's
kind of what our goal with this series is just
to reclaim our love for to remember that.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
We do love these books.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
Yeah, I mean, I guess you could say, and there's
probably like Justin's probably listening and being like, well, in
that case, you should probably adjust the rating system, like
what is a one? But but no, I like I
a one like a page page the ends up being
on Justin. No, like a one would be like a
page from Twilight. You know, like we're saying like just

(23:07):
as readers, like, we're probably going to have a four.

Speaker 4 (23:10):
I mean, there are some ones around in this series,
like probably if we get a page is like three sentences,
you know, and then it's the.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
Chapter break that's true, or a page from owl post
from next book. Yeah, so yeah, there there will maybe
be one or two ones, but I think we'll have
some threes and fours every once in a while.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Well a little peek behind the curtain here.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
In preparing for the show today, I accidentally started by
reading page five hundred and ninety seven of the fifth
Book because I saw five and I just immediately was like, oh,
fifth book, Well, so our whole system is out of
whack now. Well, then I went back and I read
the fourth I read the page in the foot.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yeah, what if you just came in and you just
just came in? Well I think I did this a
few weeks ago two with yeah, I don't, I will say.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Then when I got to read the one in the
fourth book, I was like, oh, much better page to discuss.
Like the fifth book one was about when tree Lawny
gets sacked, but it's basically just like the discussion back
and forth between Umbradge and Dumbledore about who gets to
hire someone.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Oh that's not fascinating, I mean it was.

Speaker 4 (24:15):
It definitely was like a sleigh for Dumbledore, but at
the same time it.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Was like it was pretty boring.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Just so, I guess we're gonna have to keep track
on it is Dumbledore on every five hundred ninety seventh
page because so far two out of two.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Two out of two, and he was talking.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Also, he must have been in at least one of
our one page at a time so far, because he
won the he won the MVB. Oh, but I think
that could have been just like he made an appearance.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
I don't think we've had like a big dialogue with him.
He won the MVB.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yes, that was in book six, page two twenty two,
which happens to be the one page that you didn't
write a description.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
Yeah, which the reason I think I didn't is because
I think that was maybe the second episode we did
and so like when I was originally ranking them, I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
I'm not sure. Wheah.

Speaker 3 (25:07):
The only thing we have in our notes for what
book six, page two twenty two had is that the
band name of the week options were two best friends, twins, parents,
staff table, and something with the order. So maybe Dumbledore
was up at the staff table.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
And he like so I think he like, yeah, that
sounds it around, Yeah, interesting.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
And you know that's the one thing with this, I mean,
as a teacher in twenty twenty five now, you know
you have to consider like how how much can be
googled from whatever you're teaching. And we're doing a really
good job with our curriculum right now. It's this the
Opat series. It's pretty hard to google. I mean, I
guess you could find the e book and actually scroll

(25:52):
down to page six hundred or sorry to twenty two,
but like to be like for Harry Potter, call this
is pretty ungogleable.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
Yeah, that's right. You gotta go back and listen to
the content in.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Order to know exactly or you know, find your book.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
But like you can't just google what happened on book
four of pages or book book six, page two hundred
and twenty two of Harry Potter like that.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
You used to be able to google stuff.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Well you'll get an answer, but it'll be like Harry
Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
No, but I'm saying, like back when the Internet was better,
you used to be able to get answers for things
like true, that's true, yeah, but yeah, no, not anymore.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Back when punk rock was yeah, back in the days
of punk rock. Well, since we're talking about mistakes about
these these episodes, you read the wrong page, I will
say I had a nightmare last night, not really a nightmare,
but a dream that we started doing this one page
at a time episode. I knew we were doing this

(26:52):
this morning, and we for some reason talked about like
five pages, and we were like.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Getting carried is a nightmare?

Speaker 3 (26:59):
I know, and we were like getting really I think
we like kind of thought it was a take five
and we were supposed to talk about five pages, and
then I like we had finished like summarizing, we were
really going to town talking about the five pages. And
then I was like, wait, isn't this called one page
at a time?

Speaker 1 (27:16):
It's really sopid.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
What a groundbreaking dream? I know, really makes you think
it was like what a.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Great use office sleep, like thinking about that and your
mental power thinking about something dumb like, wait, yeah, called
one page at.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
A time, It's not called five pages at a time.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
I can't truthfully say that I've ever dreamt anything of
the sort.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Yeah, that's what I was saying.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Okay, let's talk about the ww GPD.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
What would ground and prey do.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Now we cannot cheat and say what she actually did,
but we can explain that there is a picture of
Harry looking into the stone basins.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
Yeah, it's not the thing, is it. It appears to
be when he about to go into the ponds.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
It appears it appears to me when he's looking at
two eggs that he broke to the pole.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Two yolks. I've always thought.

Speaker 4 (28:11):
That, Oh, she did a wonderful job of drawing that
pond s.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
Harry's looking Harry's looking like Mega Mind's son.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
I mean, that's a bit of an exaggeration. His foeheads
a little like a four and a half head, not
a five.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
I would say a six head.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Partially the pective on four point three seven head, Yeah,
four point nine to seven. It doesn't I would say
it's partially the perspective shocker. But yeah, Like his hair
could be the top of his head, but it kind
of looks like it's all like part of part of his.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Fore When when you look at the hair, I will
agree that it looks a lot more like Mega Mind
you just look at his forehead.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
But yeah, you're right, he has kind of like a
bouffont going on why. That's why. That's why as big forehead.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
People like bangs, like, that's the whole idea. Harry got
some bangs to cover up his six head.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
Honestly, I was thinking that this was one of the
better photo like drawings of Harry that she's done.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
You no, it actually is.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Oh lord, I just I just accidentally went back to
chapter twenty eighth chapter art and I happen to see Winky.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
That was a jump scare.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
Winky's remember her dog nose?

Speaker 4 (29:28):
Yeah, that was a weird choice.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Okay, back to Harry, I mean back to GPD or GP.
I think we would put some Dumbledore into this. I mean,
I know it's a chapter art from the sixth book
where we have like the picture of Harry and Dumbledore
holding the memory together. I think that's from Horkrucks's chapter.
But I do like the I like the way she

(29:54):
draws Dumbledore. Actually I will give her a compliment, And
I kind of like the idea of like or maybe
putting the wand to his head and pulling the memories out.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
What do you think?

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, I like that idea too.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
I think this page is not very like action heavy,
so it makes it a little tough to like choose
what would be depicted.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Well, it's probably better for her to not be action heavy. Yeah,
it's not like action is where she thrives.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
True, Like any characters in motion, character in motion will
not be drawn. Well, that's one of one of the
laws of motion. Totally, okay, character in motion will not
be proportionate.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
Oh kind of rhymes? Yeah, uh yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
All right, I think it's time that we talk about band.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Name of the week. What do you think? I think so?
All right? I like I said Dumbledore.

Speaker 3 (30:54):
A lot of Dumbledore's phrases I think work really well
as band names and album names. On some of them.
We have here, of course, excess thoughts. I thought of that,
patterns and links.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
I like both of those.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
Yeah, those are both from the same feeling. We're sorry,
it's from from the same speech that he gives. But
but maybe those are the two best ones.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
But what are the ones? Can you think of?

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Here?

Speaker 4 (31:20):
One that I was wishing, I mean, this is one
where we do this every time, But like I was
wishing that this could be a name. But like I
wish that it says siphons the excess. I wish it
could be siphon the excess.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
Oh yeah, yeah, with the I can't kind of allowed
silvery White State.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
What is it? Silvery White State? Yeah? Oh yeah, that's
that sounds a little eh, yeah, that's fine. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
I thought maybe Polish Top or Stone Basin Polish Top.
Yeah that's humble Bragg and band name of the week. Yeah,
maybe maybe it's Stone Basin is better.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Yeah, I think Stone Basin is decent.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
Stone Basin, I was gonna say, get said multiple times.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
It definitely says.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
It's said at least twice on this page, and I
see it also on the page before that.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
Although I'm not supposed to look at that.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
Oh yeah, that that is totally beside.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
The point exactly.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
So Stone Basin Excess. Thoughts, patterns and feelings in Silvery
White State. You like Silvery White State for a band,
not an album?

Speaker 4 (32:31):
Yeah, you're right, that could be a good album name.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
I was kind of strung.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
I didn't feel like there was amazing album names on
this page.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
I agree, let's put Silvery White State for an album
and come up with another OKAD name because I feel
like there's more band name options here.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
Okay, how about at these times.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
That seems like an album name okakay, well let's put
that on as an album name.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
Okay, I'm better at the album names.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
I guess I didn't think I was, but I thought
that there weren't really good ones. Well we have I mean,
we have Silvery White State, but we could have Swirling
White Substance. E. Well, that stuffs your thoughts?

Speaker 1 (33:14):
How about is that stuff that's really boring?

Speaker 4 (33:20):
I guess we could do like his Temple?

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Okay, Yeah, I like that.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Yeah, all right, it's kind of weird because it doesn't
like it's no, it's fine. It's referring to Dumbledore's head,
but it kind of sounds like it's about like a
you know, physical temple.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Right exactly. Lit'll play on words there, a little trick
in chemistry. Okay, So we need a couple.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
We have two album names so far, Silvery White State
and Not These Times.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
What about let me show you? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:53):
I like that.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Okay, all right, now you have to come up with
the last one, since I came up with the other three.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
How about too many Thoughts and Memories.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Yeah, that's good too.

Speaker 4 (34:05):
Or thoughts and memories crowned into my mind? No, I
think too many thoughts and Memories is better.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Okay, all right, we'll go with that.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
We have four band names, and I'm gonna say them clearly.
Hopefully I will remember to post the poll. But we
do have Alyssa who will do it. Will message us
to remind us, right Alyssa okay, very grateful or mister
slow as she prefers to go by band names. We
have excess thoughts, patterns and feelings, stone Basin and his

(34:36):
temple and album names. We have silvery white state at
these times let me show you, and too many thoughts
and memories.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
Okay, it's a pretty pretty good crop of choices there.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
Yeah, better than I thought. I didn't see that coming.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
I feel like this is one where like I always
want to prepare more, but then it's almost like it's
much better like the ones we come up with when
we're talking.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
I know that's the same.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
As I read it the first couple I usually read
it a couple of times and then I am like, what,
I don't know, Sometimes like I want.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
To, I want to come into it with a couple ideas,
but usually I mean this time I did with the
couple band names with Dumbledore speech, But most of the
time and most of these other ones I was like,
it's it's easier to come up with when we're talking.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
About it, right for the reason.

Speaker 3 (35:19):
Yeah, all right, so let's take a quick break for
a word from our sponsors, and we'll return for all
the rest of our segments. I think it's time for
the w w t q q oh.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
T w b.

Speaker 3 (35:42):
W w t qqot w b exactly exactly. Okay, So
this one's kind of tricky because I feel like this
page already has like this is an explanatory page, you know,
like all of the stuff on the page is Dumbledore
just explaining to Harry what's going on.

Speaker 4 (35:59):
Dumbledore kind of is one of the experts on Klora this.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
Yeah, and his qualifications are headmaster at Hogwarts School.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
Of Witchcraft, many years experience with thoughts and memories, that's true.

Speaker 3 (36:13):
And the head mugwump of supreme mugwomp of was a
good mood or whatever.

Speaker 1 (36:21):
Yeah, isn't that what it's called? I think? So the
Supreme mugwamp.

Speaker 3 (36:27):
It sounds like sounds like an insult, like it definitely does.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
It does not sound like something that you would want
to be or like a word that I feel like
I should say. It sounds a little bit like mud blood.
I think that's the problem.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah, I think you're right.

Speaker 4 (36:40):
Yeah, I'm gonna look that up to make sure I'm
not making that up.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
No, that's the thing, for sure.

Speaker 3 (36:44):
It is yep, a suggested Google is Supreme mugwump versus
Minister of Magic.

Speaker 4 (36:53):
Well, and just so we know, though there was, there
are a couple other uses of the word mugwamp. First
of all, it was it was a rock band in
the sixties, like the Mugwumps.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Like Pug Sorry, like pug Womp. No, like punk rock
band or what it was a Yeah, it was an
American rock band.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
It says, sounds awesome. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
To be clear that the Mugwump is not part of
the Wizma. The Mugwump is the part of the International
Confederation of Wizards.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Oh okay.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
And then also there were the Mugwumps were Republican political
activists in the United States who were intensely opposed to
political corruption. They famously switched parties from the Republican Party
by supporting the Democratic candidate Grover Cleveland in the eighteen
eighty four United States presidential.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
Famously, Alice dressed up as Grover Cleveland.

Speaker 4 (37:44):
That was my president that I had to do a
report on in fifth grade, actually dressed up as well.
We had to.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
That was a weird project. So it's the kind of
thing they don't make kids do anymore. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
But yeah, so the Mugwumps were also like this little
political group in the eighteen eighties.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
I like, how if I feel like American history has
a lot of weird, like the Whig Party and yeah,
like really.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Is that the best?

Speaker 3 (38:15):
I was worried when you said there was a history
where you were going to say like that there was
some sort of slur or something.

Speaker 1 (38:20):
Yeah, it does sound like it could be. I don't
know what it.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
Would be, but yeah, well yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
The Supreme Mugwump wiki page reminds us that Dumbledore was
the officeholder from question Mark until nineteen ninety five, which is.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
When he was ousted ousted by Budges.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah all right, well, well the more you the more
you know. Uh.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
Dumbledore was succeeded by Wagga Doo graduate Babaji aking Bade.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Where's tim?

Speaker 2 (38:54):
Where was he from?

Speaker 3 (38:56):
From Wagga Doo School of Magic which is the African
wizarding school. Of course, there's only one wizarding school and
the whole Africa.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
It makes so much sense.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
Oh it does say, although Africa has a number of
smaller wizarding schools.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Oh okay, that's so that's the main one. Okay, Well, anyway,
let's not get too much into that kind.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
Of a lore.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 4 (39:17):
And also it's like how there's pictures on here of
the Wagga, Like there's a picture of an African wizard
receiving a dream message. Where is the credit for this?

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Like this is it a fan art or is it
like a video?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
I think it might be AI, Like, I guess it's
from Hogwarts Legacy.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
Yeah, that's what my prediction was.

Speaker 3 (39:39):
So it's usually from one of the video games, Wonder
Book Book of Potions.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 3 (39:45):
Yeah, oh, an augmented reality book offered by Sony and
Potter Moore.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
It's a PS three game.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
Well, and like, once again, I think I've said this before,
I'm so confused who plays these games because.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
I've never even heard of them.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
I know, like Hogwarts Mystery and Hogwarts Legacy I definitely
like have heard of, but like that random PlayStation game
from twenty thirteen, I definitely have never heard of. Yeah,
but I mean I honestly think it's like a lot
of like international people are playing these games.

Speaker 4 (40:11):
Oh and you know what, I know we've had like
this exact conversation before we have Okay, well back to
the ww t QQOTWB please Oh yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
So I kind of thought maybe this could be a
chance for it to be more like a chat room
type of Cora experience where it's like what memories would
you like to put in your pony? And then we
would have like some random person coming in and like
share like way over sharing, Yeah, some dark story from
their past where it's like, well I don't want to

(40:45):
remember it in detail, I don't want to forget it either.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
Yeah, you could have something about like don't like wouldn't
therapists love the.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
Concept of a pond s?

Speaker 4 (40:57):
Yeah, that's able to work through memo in the pond
it would be liked be.

Speaker 3 (41:01):
Like how would how would upon seve function in the
Muggle world and be like somebody would be explaining, right,
they could have have really good use in therapy but
also have great use in any field if you think
about like you know, science and all those things like
whenever somebody has a thought. You don't have to memorize
it anymore. You just put it into the pond.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Sieve.

Speaker 4 (41:24):
Oh, trust me, sister, I have wanted upon sieve ever
since I read about one.

Speaker 3 (41:27):
Yeah, well, it would be helpful for uh doctors because
you know how you know frequently doctors have to like Google.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
You know, doctors are always googling stuff.

Speaker 4 (41:36):
Yeah, I thought you meant like for like patients.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
Charts, Well all that too.

Speaker 3 (41:41):
Yeah, you could put your patients charts into the the
You would have your memories of the last conversation I
know we had with each patient. I know we have
at least one nurse practitioner listening, so exactly she could
share with us. I think we're using the word charting, right, Yeah, No,
you're the conversations with the patients, so that way they
don't have to pretend like they remember you. Like right,

(42:05):
there's a lot of functionality. And I think you don't
even really need qualifications to answer this question on Quora.

Speaker 4 (42:11):
Oh you always need qualifications.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
I don't want to hear from some rando.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
I want to hear from somebody who graduated from right.
I don't even know where's somebody who's somebody who's read
all the books?

Speaker 3 (42:24):
Or how about the former editor of the HP Lexicon.
Oh well, Claire Jordan. She always has stuff to say.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
You know, she'd be all up in that.

Speaker 3 (42:34):
But I mean, I was thinking, like, it could just
be somebody who's read all the books. And I'm not
saying read all the Harry Potter books. Just read all
the books, just all the books. Like that's always helpful.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
That is always helpful. I always appreciate that person.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
Yeah, okay, what about the moral of the week.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
What's the moral of this page?

Speaker 4 (42:57):
It's kind of a tough page to assign a world too,
because uh, it's again it's just like Dumbledore explaining things, right.
But maybe it could be something about how like I
think maybe there's a lesson in Harry couldn't truthfully say
he had ever felt anything of the sort. It's kind
of like understanding that people have different mental experiences.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Yeah, that's true, So how do we put that into words?

Speaker 4 (43:29):
Just because you haven't experienced it yourself doesn't mean it's
not valid.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
Oh so this is kind of the Doubting Thomas of
the week.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
You might say, well, Thomas Thomas would have loved upon
Steve in that moment he would have said, Jesus, show
me your memory of.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
So that I know it's you.

Speaker 4 (43:48):
It would be like Thomas, who couldn't truthfully say he
had ever felt anything of the sort.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
So I guess that's our literary device. Watch it's in
this page? Is this entire pages of doubting Thomas? Isn't
it as usual? There are doubting Thomases everywhere for those
with eyes to see.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
Yeah, that's that's the moral of the page. I'm sorry,
that's the lesson of the week. No, So I guess
I feel like we have different definitions of moral versus lessons. Yeah,
I feel like this is also a conversation we have
every week.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
To me, the lesson of the week is more so
a like what you would teach, what you could teach,
as a like actual.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
To me, we could get rid of lesson of the week,
let's put it.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
I know you've never really liked that one.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Well, I'm the one who came up with it that
I don't like it anymore.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
The moral of the week, though, is like if this,
if this is a fable, like, what's the what's ASoP
teaching us here?

Speaker 1 (44:50):
Yeah? Well that's what I'm saying, like, just.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
There are doubting Thomases everywhere, those with eyes.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
To see perfect nailed it.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Ooh no, pun intendant, Yeah, gotta put your.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Fingers in those nail holes in order to understand how
much we nailed.

Speaker 3 (45:09):
It, exactly, girl. Yeah, I think that there's something like
that too, But maybe also like something about like Dumbledore
being willing to share this information with Harry even though
he doesn't totally get it. There could be some sort

(45:30):
of moral there.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Right, yeah, or I don't know.

Speaker 4 (45:34):
I mean here, there's also like Dumbledore's being very understanding
of Harry, Like how Harry comes out of the pond
sieve and he wasn't supposed to be in there, and
he's like the cabinet door was sort of open end,
and then Dumbledore I quite understand.

Speaker 1 (45:47):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
That's really curiosity is not a sin to Harry, Yeah, exactly,
which I think he's gonna say that the next page
or something, probably, Yeah, that could.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
Be a lot.

Speaker 3 (45:59):
Well, yeah, I think it's something about like Dumbledore is
being I mean, he's being a very good teacher here.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
Everything is a teachable moment.

Speaker 3 (46:08):
I have a cop out because we're saying that the
lesson is that everything is teachable.

Speaker 1 (46:13):
I think everything is a teachable moment kind of works.

Speaker 2 (46:16):
Okay, yeah, I mean that's kind dumbledore'sm so true.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
All right, what do we have left to do?

Speaker 3 (46:22):
I don't think that there's really much of meme of
the week unless you came up with one.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
Alis No, I mean I think you could kind of
maybe do something with that one about the different like
levels of your brain exploding or whatever.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
That's your favorite one, that's one of my faces. But like,
I mean I could kind.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Of picture Harry like a few different levels of that,
Like you're right, I could see stuffs.

Speaker 1 (46:45):
Your thoughts.

Speaker 4 (46:48):
Finding out that that stuff is Dumbledore's thoughts. Yeah, perfect, Yeah,
but also like, yeah, there's just other than that.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
I can't really think of anything.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
Okay, Yeah, and the real Weirdo and MVB. Well of
course I was saving that for last Okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Real Weirdo.

Speaker 4 (47:10):
I mean we're kind of between Doubledore and Harry, right,
like right, I mean Harry.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
I guess yeah, I think probably Harry, just because like
he's being kind of a dunce here.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 3 (47:25):
It's it's a it's a dry real weirdos week it is.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
It's not like an obvious one for sure.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
I mean I think that that stuffs your thoughts phrase
just gives him the real weirdo there exactly.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
MVB. I was kind of thinking maybe the the hair that.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
Seemed to be clinging to the wand which, yeah, it's
grown actually his memory.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Yeah, I think that's kind of our only option, honestly,
and unless we said, you know, Fox is probably in
the office, so we could give it to him, But
I think they have.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
To be on the page.

Speaker 3 (47:57):
Sadly, Well, that's that's your rule. I don't think I
ever agreed to that rule. But yeah, there.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
Is an implied presence of Fox here.

Speaker 3 (48:08):
But if we have to give it to something literally
on the page, I guess it has to be the
silvery white thoughts. Yeah, that's really this is a rough
week for real weirdo ing MVB totally.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
I don't think we have any other options though, right.

Speaker 4 (48:26):
I don't think there really are no sad Yeah, okay,
I mean I guess maybe the pond. See Dumbledore lifted
the basin so it kind of flew over to the
polish top.

Speaker 1 (48:39):
Yeah, that's same. I don't know. I don't think so. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (48:45):
Okay, so the memories are the silver I mean, are
we saying the what Harry thought was hair?

Speaker 2 (48:50):
Are we saying that stuff?

Speaker 1 (48:52):
I mean, it's kind of in general, it's all the
same stuff.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
So I just put down like hair slash the silvery
white thoughts.

Speaker 2 (48:58):
Okay, we don't just phrase it that stuff.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
I mean I could put that as well.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Okay, it's very important how we put it on, especially
the only we see exactly. All Right, So as far
as rating this page, I have to say we already
gave it a seven out of ten. So we gave
elf Tails a nine out of ten. So it's pretty
clear that elf Tails remains King of the hill exactly.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
But this was a good page.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
It just had We have yet to find the page
that has the perfect medley of you know, content, heart, uniqueess, creative.
I'm just kidding, but you know, like this page was
really good on content. Yeah, but it didn't have the
level of humor character well, and it didn't have much action.
It was it was mainly just talking right, and it

(49:45):
didn't have that.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
Much depth either. Honestly.

Speaker 3 (49:47):
I mean it was interesting, but it wasn't really like
going into super deep implications for the series, you know, right,
I mean, like you said, it's important to learn what
the pensive is for sure. Yeah, all right. So with
that said, I think it's it's signed to roll the dice.
But I have to say, I just cleaned my desk

(50:07):
and I have to figure out where I put my dice.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
So it's going to take me a minute.

Speaker 4 (50:10):
It's a problem with the physical dice.

Speaker 1 (50:12):
We have to be able to locate them, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
And I thought I put them in a convenience spot,
but they're not where I thought I put them.

Speaker 1 (50:18):
So give me a minute here, all right.

Speaker 3 (50:20):
First thing I roll is the maybe these are not
the right dice that I found.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
Okay, give me one more minute, Starry. I have extra
random dice laing around.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Because it came in a set of like ten and
I only need to use like four of them because
it was a set of unique, unique number or unique
sided dice, and so it included like a seven side
or obviously I used the seven sided die, but the
seven sided die is what I was trying to find,
and I found it. So starting with the seven sided

(50:55):
die and insert die roll sound, because this isn't going
to make a lot of sound as the other one.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
Oh, we got book one? Is this our first book one?
It is? Okay, that's exciting.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
Yes, how many pages are in book one?

Speaker 1 (51:10):
I think it's like three hundred something, but I don't
know how many.

Speaker 2 (51:14):
So should I do the three sided die first?

Speaker 1 (51:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (51:20):
Now, to be clear, it's a D three. It's not
a three sided die. This one's interesting. It's a six
sided die and it.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
Has Roman numerals.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
There are two sides that have I, two sides that
have two eyes, and two sides that have three eyes.
So okay, well we got one, so we're still early
in the series. Oh but I should have done the
four sided die because I could have been gotten zero, right, okay, okay,

(51:49):
well this time I got three.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
So are we counting that then?

Speaker 4 (51:52):
Well, it says the US edition of Harry Potter and
the Sorcers's Stone has three hundred and nine pages, so
we're at sort of a limited number.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
I mean, yes, that would count.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
All right, So now it's time for the D ten.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
Right, yeah, and hopefully we get zero. So I mean,
I don't think you need to roll then, you just
need to roll in second number.

Speaker 3 (52:13):
Okay, alright, so it's gonna be three hundred and four.

Speaker 4 (52:17):
All right, so my prediction is that they'll be in
the final chapter.

Speaker 3 (52:23):
Oh, that's a good prediction. You took the word faces, right,
is the whole that whole page or that whole chapter.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Is the Mamerton faces. That's yeah, that's weird.

Speaker 1 (52:32):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
I think they're going to be still at the feast.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
Yeah. I doubt they'd be on the train yet.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
Because I mean five pages on the train that's kind
of a lot.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
All right, so book one, page three hundred four, and
we'll work out the kinks of the dice rolling system
along the way.

Speaker 1 (52:50):
Folks, don't worry. Don't worry. I know everyone was very worried.

Speaker 2 (52:55):
Yeah, shaken in their boots, that's one would say.
