<p>It&rsquo;s Monday and we&rsquo;re back at it again at Podtrificus Totalus, the only Harry Potter podcast that spends roughly half the runtime debating the pedagogical methods at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!</p>
<p>This chapter takes <em>Prisoner of Azkaban</em> into Hogwarts and keeps Harry out of the Halloween trip to Hogsmeade. As he mopes about the castle, he ends up in Professor Lupin&rsquo;s office for tea and a conversation about fear. While Lupin believes Harry wise for fearing the Dementors most of all, the end of the chapter should perhaps heighten Harry&rsquo;s fear about Sirius Black, who attacks the portrait of the Fat Lady that guards Gryffindor Common Room&hellip;</p>
