Doubt: Shell Cottage (Book 7, Chapter 25)

November 12, 2020 00:34:48

Casper and Vanessa explore the theme of Doubt in chapter twenty-five of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This week we appreciate Ron’s role in the trio, debate the effectiveness of eye contact, and continue to grapple with what this book is trying to say about Goblins. Throughout the episode we consider the question:When do we know that our doubts are legitimate vs. just holding us back?

Thanks to Maryse for this week’s voicemail! Next week we’ll be reading Chapter 26, Gringotts through the theme of Time.
