In this episode of Magic Muggle: A Harry Potter Aftershow, Eric dives into Chapters 4 and 5 of Chamber of Secrets: At Flourish and Blotts and The Whomping Willow. From the chaos of a family trip to Diagon Alley that turns into a brawl with the Malfoys, to Harry and Ron’s desperate flight to Hogwarts ending in disaster, these chapters show us that the wizarding world is as messy and unfair as it is magical. 💡 Themes we explore:

• Arthur Weasley’s integrity versus Lucius Malfoy’s arrogance.
• Class divides in the wizarding world.
• The Whomping Willow as more than a tree — a dangerous character in its own right.
• How Hogwarts punishes recklessness instead of addressing deeper struggles.
