This week, Matt and Vanessa explore the theme of Comfort in Chapter Thirty of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire! They discuss Harry's journey into the depths of Dumbledore's memories, Barty Crouch Sr.'s role in sentencing his own son, and the pensieve as a form of journaling. Throughout the episode we consider the question: when is comfort helpful, and when does it limit our ability to take appropriate action?

Thank you to Dani for her voicemail! Next time we're reading Chapter Thirty-One, The Third Task, through the theme of Spite.
