Join Harry Potter experts J and Ben Carlin of the Super Carlin Brothers YouTube show in a chapter-by-chapter read-through of the entire Harry Potter Saga from "The Boy Who Lived" to "The Flaw in the Plan."
These two brothers have made a career of studying and discussing the Wizarding World and invite you to join them on an in-depth analysis of the story from start to finish. We plan to explore our favorite moments and characters, discuss fan theories, and the art of a good plot hole.

Love this podcast! I’m not one to listen to podcasts often, but this is an exception! Listening to them talk about Harry Potter is enriching and entertaining! I love listening to them drop little Harry Potter nuggets and their own theories and stuff. It just adds to the awesomeness of it! It feels off script to me and that is some of my favorite listening! Love this, definitely deserves 5 stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I hadn’t listened to podcasts in over a year, but discovering yours has completely changed that. Now, Sundays have become even more special, thanks to the joy and inspiration your podcast brings.

Really enjoy this podcast. Jay and Ben take their time and look at every detail of the Harry Potter series. If you’re looking for a fun deep dive into Harry Potter, this is for you. I find myself laughing along with them, as I remember all the moments of the series that made me laugh growing up. I look forward to the new episode each week. I hope to catch one of their tour shows in February.
I have a theory for the Carlin bros: what is Arther Weasley was a failed aurour? You all have pointed out that he has a very limited, while enthusiast, knowledge of muggles that points to the fact he probably didn’t take Muggle studies while at Hogwarts. But he’s very talented at resolving complex curses and identifying the dark arts. Maybe he was training to be an aurour but wasn’t able to make it through the post Hogwarts testing or didn’t have the right connections to be taken seriously. (Not in the Slug club) But Dumbledore knew of his skill and talents which is why he was invited quickly into the order of the phoenix, and he was trusted to watch Harry. Just a fun idea I thought about after the Kat’s episode.
Please keep up the amazing job!

Hey Brothers! Thank you so much for this podcast and all of your content! I truly love the long episodes and hope you don’t split up chapters in the future (but understand why you might). All of your projects have truly helped me during some dark times and love that you have created a safe space many of us to enjoy the fandoms. You have taught me how to look at things from so many angles and every time I re-read/listen tot he HP books, I try to gleam something new and think about one of your theories and apply it hard to the read through to see how it can change different moments.
I’ve been wondering about how Slughorn modified his memory. I always thought that when a memory is put into the pensieve it is no longer in the owners head (hence why Snape did this during occlumency lessons), but Slughorn still has the memory? So he duplicated this memory? And also, how did he modify the memory? In his head before he gave it to Dumbledore? After he removed it but before giving it to Dumbledore? If he truly wanted to hide the memory, why didn’t he just obliviate himself? Did he just use obliviate on the single memory?
Curious for your thoughts. Again thank you for all you do!
