Innocence: The Writing on the Wall (Book 2, Chapter 9)

December 22, 2016 by Casper ter Kuile

 Vanessa and Casper explore the theme of innocence in chapter nine of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. They discuss whether Mrs. Norris had it coming, how "expert" language can alienate us from our own experience, and Professor Binns' ghost privilege. Throughout the episode they consider the question: Why do we sometimes feel guilty, even when we're not?

This episode is sponsored by LifeAfter and this week's voicemail is thanks to Ian Bawa.
