This week, Vanessa and Matt are joined by Delphene Mooney of On The Rise as they explore the theme of Community in Chapter 29 of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! They discuss Fred & George’s departure, Draco’s (lack of) community, and the various sub-communities of Hogwarts. Throughout the episode we consider the question: what does it mean to be a good community?

Thank you to Janie for this week’s voicemail! Next week we're reading Chapter 30, Grawp, through the theme of determination with Jackson Bird!
