A Harry Potter podcast covering the books, films, and the new HBO Harry Potter series.
The Potterverse is Mary & Blake’s independent Harry Potter podcast and analysis hub, covering the books, films, characters, adaptation choices, and HBO’s new Harry Potter series.
If HBO’s reboot has you revisiting Harry Potter, start here. We connect our Potterverse podcast archive with our ongoing coverage of the HBO release date, episode schedule, cast, trailer reactions, and the adaptation choices that will shape the new series.
This is where Mary & Blake follow the franchise as fans, critics, and adaptation obsessives — going deeper than recap and keeping the conversation rooted in story, character, emotion, and what the next version of Harry Potter has to get right.
HBO’s new Harry Potter series has fans asking when the show comes out, how many episodes Season 1 will have, who is in the cast, and whether the reboot can justify telling this story again. Start with our latest HBO coverage below, then follow The Potterverse as we revisit the books and films before the new series arrives.
Want to revisit Harry Potter before HBO’s new series? Start with The Potterverse, our spoiler-friendly podcast journey through the books, films, characters, and choices that made the story work in the first place.
The Potterverse is built for fans who want more than a quick recap. We talk through how the books work, how the films adapt them, what the characters mean, and why this story still matters as HBO prepares to tell it again.
