<p>It&rsquo;s Monday and that means we have a new episode of Podtrificus Totalus, a Harry Potter podcast done chapter by chapter, book by book.</p>
<p>This week&rsquo;s episode covers chapter six of <em>Harry Potter and the Philosopher&rsquo;s Stone</em>, &ldquo;The Journey from Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.&rdquo; Harry travels to King&rsquo;s Cross station where he meets the Weasleys and befriends their youngest son, Ron, aboard the Hogwarts Express. On the train ride, we&rsquo;re introduced to a heap of new characters, including Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy, among others.</p>
<p>We make a number of references to outside sources and pop culture in this episode, which are listed below:</p>
