- This week, to celebrate a new term on September 1, we're rating every professor of Hogwarts School!
- How do the DADA professors measure up with one another on quality and on difficulty? We offer individual grades to help us compare them all.
- How about Potions? Is Slughorn a higher quality instructor than Snape?
- We all have high marks for McGonagall, but what about Dumbledore, who we saw teach in Fantastic Beasts?
- We set a Seer against a Centaur and wrap up with Charms, Herbology, and History of Magic.
- Finally, a shout-out to the non-professor teachers of Harry, like Arthur Weasley.
- We confirm our suspicions with MuggleCast's listener poll results
- Quizzitch: How many Podcast Awards has MuggleCast received?
- You can join our community at Patreon.com/MuggleCast and receive magical benefits, including Bonus MuggleCast! This week, because two clearly wasn't enough, each hosts covers their third favorite chapter in the Potter series!
