It’s the English class you didn't know you missed and the meaningful conversations you didn't know you craved. Join Vanessa Zoltan and Casper ter Kuile as they bring thought, reflection and laughter to Harry Potter; not just as novels, but as instructive and inspirational texts that will teach us about our own lives. Relive the magic chapter by chapter as they explore themes such as commitment, revenge and forgiveness. This podcast creates time in your week to think about life’s big questions. Because reading fiction doesn’t just help us escape the world, it helps us live in it.

Three women. Three centuries. One haunting. Mirrors is a sci-fi ghost story from ZoomDoom Stories. We are a critically acclaimed sci-fi ghost story. Our show bridges the gap between sci-fi, horror, and mystery, and we bring in fans of all three genres. Our entire cast and crew has been nominated for every Audioverse award for which we are eligible, and we are consistently in the top 100 fiction podcast charts. We will provide ads in the voice of major characters and using the sound design to associate those ads with the time period that character is from (eg, a scratchy tape to signal the 1960s). Each of our seasons contains eight episodes, and we are in the middle of Season 2. Our numbers grew between seasons and will continue to grow between Season 2 and 3 (already in production).
