If you are not a Harry Potter fan then may i suggest that you leave now because this blog is all about the lovely podcast PotterCast and if you have not heard of it then I am sorry to say that you are seriously deprived.
I started listening to PotterCast on the very first episode on my computer. At the time I was still being one of the kids that carried a CD player, mind you it was Sony so I wasn't that pathetic. I started listening to it during the summer of 2005 when it started and I was listening to it while doing various things while being at home turning the volume up so I could hear it throughout the house. (Mind you this was when my mum {yes I said 'mum' even though I'm not British I feel like saying MUM} was not in the house). Listening to it on the computer brought much annoyance to my mother (when she got back from teaching summer school) who did does not read the books, even though I have constantly tried to persuade her to read the first book even though I strongly note that she does not like Fantasy books which is actually rather sad. Anyhow, so I began downloading all of the episodes off of the episode, but when the PotterCast trio (well, actually it was Melissa Anelli at the time because, well because she's cool like that) strongly urged fellow listeners to subscribe to PotterCast on iTunes to get them in the top podcasts on iTunes I downloaded it! *SQUEE*
Now on the first episode they asked for listneres to call in asking questions. I most certainly called in with a question. Imagin my utter joy when I heard myself on their podcast. I was extremly thrilled. Sue even said I had asked a "good question". I was squeeing and being uberly happy that they put me on their show, even if it was just a voicemail. So that is basically the whole jist of how I started listening to PotterCast and being an even more dork.
Now, I listen to PotterCast through my lovely new shiney iPod! *SQUEE* (I must say I LOVE it when Sue Squees! It reminds me of myself when I get really excited about something.) I got it for my 16th birthday about two weeks ago on the 28th of Septemember!! *yay for moi!* (PotterCast and MuggleCast [another podcast which is pretty awesome, but they have not been nice enough to have my voicemail on their show *sad face* haha] or the LeakyMug had their LIVE Podcast fro CA!! *squee*) So now I listen to PotterCast via my iPod! For the past two days in English our sub. has let us listen to our iPods and I converted one of my best friends Melissa to PotterCast, she doesn't even listen to MuggleCast (that makes me laugh), but I have convinced her that MuggleCast is fairly close to how good PotterCast is. Although, we both just like listening to PotterCast #42-Three Men and a Dawlish because we love listening to the blooper of Melissa, John, and Sue laughing and Sue going "WEEE", John saying "Show me your grillz", and Melissa telling John to have his brain studied for Science. We have burst into fits of laughter sporadicly because of this. ^^
Pottercast brings every Harry Potter fan what they want which is Humor, Discussion, and interviews with people "making the magic" from the books to the movies. PotterCast can make you laugh. I was having an awful birthday and I plugged in Episode 42 and laughed and got happier. THANKS POTTERCAST!!!
So basically the reason for this blog is because------ POTTERCAST ROCKS and I can spread the word of PotterCast because not only have I gotten one of my friends hooked but TWO! They are extremly excited and always beg to listen to my iPod because I have the PotterCast. haha. ^^
LISTEN TO POTTERCAST IF YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!
*note: I am extremly sorry for the lack of editing in this entry. I have no desire running on three hours of sleep to edit a blog entry, sorry PotterCast, please forgive me! *cries* Well, I guess you have to because I listened to PotterCast when I couldn't go to sleep. ^___^
