Posted by i_am_hermione Feb 23rd 2008

Why is it called "Laura is fired"? I guess I'll just have to listen to find out.


Posted by jacobs06 Feb 23rd 2008

^ really? wow, I would have never of thought of listening to the show to find out what the title means, especially with mugglecast....


Posted by HJaneWeasley Feb 23rd 2008

NO!!!! laura stays.


Posted by Slytherin15 Feb 23rd 2008

woa is laura really fired???


Posted by Andrew Feb 23rd 2008

Good point, jacobs06. Good point.


Posted by 1NymphadoraTonks1 Feb 23rd 2008

YAAAA! But is Laura actioully fired!!! Im going to have to listen to it.. I really hope she isn't!


Posted by katie_ella_30 Feb 23rd 2008

i reaalllly liked the discussion about the new scene so far..i'm only a half hour in but it's great so far! and i'm soo super excited for the live show! yay!


Posted by rosePOTTER Feb 23rd 2008

Who else thought it was hilarious when Micah was like 'In order to remind movie goers that no-where is safe' i mean, if you just heard that bit it would sound really weird :)


Posted by hpintwense06 Feb 23rd 2008

Can't wait to listen, as usual! And you can't fire Laura! (even though i'm sure it's just a joke)


Posted by gracie_lou13 Feb 23rd 2008

wow, i haven't been on mugglenet in like 6 months. i used to get on like every hour. it feels good to be back! haha


Posted by Jbird Feb 23rd 2008

how should we record and send in our 30 sec. spot?


Posted by kristine_london Feb 23rd 2008

wait wait wait.....je suis confus...ugh! she's fired?? i have to listen to this NOW but i'm not at home right now...i'm at a pretty boring party...I'll listen to it as soon as I get home :D


Posted by muggle_fan_1 Feb 23rd 2008

I love Mugglecast so much! But, I think one girl in the show is enough. I don't want to sound rude, but I feel we need to give our opinions :D. I don't really like Elysa, sorry.


Posted by Jbird Feb 23rd 2008

Elysa is fine, and Laura isn't getting fired.


Posted by katie_ella_30 Feb 23rd 2008

i like elysa. and i don't think we should blatantly go out and see "blah blah blah, i don't like this person." MCers have feelings too. and i seriously doubt you've had enough time to come to that conclusion anyways. give the girl a chance! elysa, if you're reading this, don't take comments like that seriously. :D


Posted by Arry Feb 23rd 2008

59:30ish is an editing mistake.


Posted by chommy Feb 23rd 2008

How 'bout we stop MuggleCat all together? xP JK, I'm just not a fan of MuggleCast, but I have nothing against it.


Posted by hpintwense06 Feb 23rd 2008

Yeah, I'm kind of worried about a new host. I haven't listened yet so I'm not going to judge, and I'm sure she'll fit in and we'll get used to her after a few shows. I mean, I was really worried when they said Mikey - even Matt - was going to be on.... but both of them have fit in fine, and I really like both!!! So I hope I feel the same way about Elysa! =] oh and happy birthday Elysa!!!


Posted by NathalieCastle Feb 23rd 2008

Happy Birthday Elysa!! I'm going to listen to you right away!!


Posted by Seriouspain Feb 23rd 2008

Yes theres bad editing at 59:32?


Posted by Firebolt7 Feb 23rd 2008

ANDREW SAIS THE F WORD OH MY GOD!!


Posted by Jbird Feb 23rd 2008

i know...haha


Posted by Wizard4243 Feb 23rd 2008

interesting very interesting


Posted by Seriouspain Feb 23rd 2008

Ok its not really a big deal... or the first time. They occasionally get frustrated while doing the show, its understandable. Sometimes Andrew misses a bad word or two, but usually its pretty good editing


Posted by Jbird Feb 23rd 2008

so how can somebody record something they can email w/out garage band?


Posted by aespejo104 Feb 23rd 2008

Hehe!!! Andrew either missed something while he was editing, or he thought it'd be F+++ING hillarious to keep it in... HEHEHEHE


Posted by randomchat Feb 23rd 2008

YOU GUYS! F-word AGAIN? ILY GUYS. Cursing is perectly normal. I LOL'd.


Posted by RoseMclane Feb 23rd 2008

Haha, Andrew! Just popped on the computer to let you know that I caught you editing mistake...I thought it was so funny. I replayed it several times to make sure I was hearing properly. Very funny. I'm sure you'll say sorry cause the Moms and Dads are going to complain but just to let you know, I don't hold it ageist you or any other cast member. I for one would have loved to get a hold of " Butter Beer By The Keg - The Uncensored Edition " That would have been great. Any way I have 37:38 minutes/seconds left of Funny-Censored Goodness. ( I cant type and listen ) See you next week!


Posted by NicoleM Feb 23rd 2008

Laura fired? Even though I do not listen to mugglecast, (I got a Zune for Christmas so maybe I'll finally get to download it!) I do hope you are only joking about the "fired" thing. That's way too harsh. =)


Posted by Jbird Feb 23rd 2008

for the last time they are joking! Its because they like the new girl and are joking that she should replace laura.


Posted by emsta224 Feb 23rd 2008

LAURA IS NOT GETTING FIRED. ITS A JOKE. sheesh. cos they'd really fire her. poor Andrew. he's going to get all these complaint emails because he made ONE editing mistake. I thought it was funny Andrew!! =]


Posted by RangerXML Feb 24th 2008

F-bomb 59:30


Posted by Shaun05 Feb 24th 2008

Yay! Nice and early mugglecast. Just what I like


Posted by snapelova Feb 24th 2008

Yay! Going to listen now!


Posted by urgtheunclean Feb 24th 2008

Hey does anyone think that the 'bloopers' section at the very end should be increased? I mean, its just so funny! And I dont think anyone would mind a few extra minutes!


Posted by JaySlytherinGirl Feb 24th 2008

YAY! I've just started listening to MuggleCast, and I like it veeeeeeery much! My favourite episode ever is "Bellatrix Needs Some Love"...when they started talking about Rodolphus I nearly fell off the chair!!!
