Happy holidays! This week we are going back to LeakyCon in Dallas, where The Ringer's Mallory Rubin and Jason Concepcion interviewed Alison Sudol about Queenie Goldstein, writing, creation, and more. This was conducted BEFORE CoG came out in theaters, so maybe now is a great time to revisit everything we heard.    We'll be presenting more of these interviews between now and the day we return in the second week of January! Enoy! And make sure to check out Mal and Jason's podcast, Binge Mode: Harry Potter — they truly are some of the best Potter podcasters in history.

Is Newt on the spectrum of autism? The big magical fights in the books, vs those in the movies The return of the Mailbag! ...and more!
