Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of Indignation in chapter twenty-five of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. This week Casper and Vanessa discuss Trelawney’s defensiveness, Dumbledore’s injured hand, and the sometimes cyclical nature of progress. Throughout the episode we consider the question:Can indignation be useful?

Thanks to Christie for this week’s voicemail! Next week we’re reading chapter twenty-six, The Cave, through the theme of Persistence.
