Line #10 Podcast/PotterFicWeekly


1	''Potter Fic Weekly'' is in a way, ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, a podcast that discusses ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' FanFic every week (except it's more like every three weeks nowadays). The episodes are on the long side and there is a lot of off-topicness (resulting in every episode becoming like a WikiWalk ), but many think that that's one of the podcast's best qualities. Their Web site can be found [[http://potterficweekly.com/ here]].

3	Many of the hosts have started another podcast called ''Poufwa Exchange'', which is just as hilarious and discusses other fandoms, from ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' to ''Franchise/StarTrek''. (Take a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DrinkingGame/PotterFicWeekly drink]] .)

5	They have also started yet another podcast called "Point of View Weekly" in which they discuss everything else. Website is [[http://pointofviewweekly.com/ here]].
