    • JKR WOMBAT test results!
  • Divination Lessons: Student Voicemails!
    • Gryffindor Student - Erica: Professor Vi, Professor Jeff, It’s me Erica and I have a question. I was crystal-ball gazing the other day and I was just wondering. Do you think that, maybe, professor Dumbledore might have kept Professor Trewlaney at Hogwarts because he felt she was in danger because she was the one who made the prophecy? And maybe lord Voldemort would want to go after her? I know he wanted to get rid of the subject of Divination all together; but, it seems like the only logical reason why he would keep Trewlaney teaching and even when she was back in the 5th book, he kept her in the castle. Thanks.
    • RavenClaw Student - Emily: Hi my name is Emily from Iowa and I have a question for you. Ok, In the Order of the Phoenix, Sirius falls through the veil in the Department of Mysteries. What do you think happened to the physical body and what do you think becomes of the spiritual being. Thanks I love your show and keep up the good work.
  • Divination Lessons!: Student Emails!
    • Lyndsi: Hi there, My name is Lyndsi and I am from Ludington Michigan...I kinda had a question about Divination since I read your information for the podcast! I was wondering if you had any ideas about if Professor Trelawney having another one of those episodes....you know when she got that really deep voice....and said went all "The Dark Lord will rise again..." stuff just about something more close by or close to home? Just a thought. Thanks for reading my email
    • Shelly aka Hermione's Wish: Hi Guys, I love your web site. Where did you get the music and what is it called? Ok my question is who do think is a better Divination teacher? Prof Trelawney or Firenze? Has anyone in the class used Divination before and did it work? Will Prof Trelawney make any more true predictions? and is she really that bad she did predict neville breaking the tea cup and Hermione leaving the class. Hermione's Wish aka Shelley Oh and Happy Easter everyone
    • Cassidy: Hi my name is cassidy and I was wondering why don't Harry and Ron just quit divination in book three. Because I would have already quit. Thanks for the really cool podcast. oh yeah and I want to be a Griffendor chaser of keeper Gryffindor. Cassidy
