I had my fingers crossed on the 9th and I wasn’t disappointed. What a great Sev’s bithday treat. Thanks to you all for another amazing podcast. I raised a glass of muggle made wine on his birthday - it wasn’t the same.

LOL…one of the free Discovery Downloads on iTunes is the opening music, the Bach Violin Concerto, and I’m listening to it thinking, “this isn’t right: Snape isn’t talking. Why would I want it even if it is free?” It’s just not the same…..

SnapeCast Staff,
I had a little trouble getting back into fanfic post DH – mostly because I was bothered by Snape’s depiction in The Prince’s Tale. Here are links to a couple of the first fics I was able to enjoy.

Keep Snaping!

Nope. No Snape in “The Tales of Beedle the Boring”. I mean “Bard”. Awsome episode as usual. :)
