“SpeakBeasty” Episode 6: “There’s Something About Eddie”

by SpeakBeasty · February 28, 2016

We’re back with Aaron, Ariel, and Shannen – and new host Sophie from England – for Episode 6 of SpeakBeasty! On this episode, we discuss Eddie Redmayne as the choice to play Newt Scamander, why we hope Fantastic Beasts shows a more diverse wizarding world than the Harry Potter films, and the ridiculousness of the Hoop Snake.

EPISODE 6: “There’s Something About Eddie”

This time on SpeakBeasty:

→ New host Sophie joins us from the UK!
→ Love from listeners makes our day. 
→ “The Phoenix Register”: More fantastic coats!
→
Not all pink is created evil.

→ This might actually be a Hamilton podcast…
→ Was Eddie the best choice to play Newt?
→ Ariel’s petition for Sasquatch!

→ The wizarding world needs more diversity!

→ “The Time-Turner”: The Harlem Renaissance!
→ We demand magical jazzy speakeasies.
→ “The Newt Case”: The Hoop Snake!
→ Silly snakes and UFO hats, because reasons.
→ The Ariel sounds KPop remix!

Don’t forget to share your thoughts with us in the comments, and remember, you can now show your support of our podcast on Patreon, where we have exclusive rewards available to those who contribute! Check it out here!
