Ok, I'll post a review here to get the ball rolling.

Firstly let me dispel the rumours. I do not have swine flu. (You need to listen to the podcast)

I knew what this podcast was to consist of, because I saw the list of topics to cover when we were discussing it. But as usual, the guys strayed a little from the list.

If you want to get a feel for the people that run your favourite HPFF site, while at the same time laughing out loud while the people around you stare at you in a strange way, this is the podcast to listen to.

I admit I found this to be rather humorous. It was the first staff chat that I listened to and I think I just might listen again. It was good for the smiles and laughs. They were dead on with Gollum. Great impression!

I'm listening to it now. I can't stop laughing xD Gollum...my precious...bahaha -dies-
You guys are great haha.

[Georgia Weasley]

I'm with Rita! I demand canon! HAHAHAHA! There are so many jewels in this one! I laughed my behind off.

:rofl: I think this was the funniest podcast so far.
The end was hilarious and Rita: your impression was hilarious, great job
I just can't wait for the next episode.

Two questions:
1. How do I add a review on ITunes????
2. Could one of the lovely people who did the Podcast please give me the link to the Alaskian puppy ?

I do agree iloveblack! I mean when Alex was like muted it was funny. I loved that Rita was like taking "control" and all. I can sort of imagine Alex's frustration with being muted by accident... I've so been there before. Though I have to say if I was in Alex's shoes I probably would have kept talking seeing as we the listeners could hear him though the others couldn't.

Man that was really entertaining. I've learnt my lesson of trying to listen to one of these in a public place, I ended up sniggering in a corner of the café on my own. Like everyone else I loved the Gollum impression.

[LovlyRita]

Of the two podcasts I've done so far, this was definitely my favorite. The part where Alex cuts out...I remember laughing so hard during that. We were so confused, and I didn't know if we were recording...

and then I just ended up looking like a huge dork!! But it was soooooo much fun!!

Oh wow, that podcast was so long! You three were definitely successful in straying away from the list of topics you had to talk about. Some of my favorite parts were Alex playing random sounds/music for the podcast, Ashley trying to create lyrics for the podcast opening melody, and swine flu! I absolutely love your accent Andrina. The discussion over Alex's voice was great Ash. I remember something being mentioned where if he played the podcast in his car the windows would break. This was a great one to listen to! It's good to hear that you don't have swine flu Jay!

It was a little hard to hear Andrina at some times, but overall, the sound quality was really good.

[scooterbug8515]

Rita! You so did not sound like a dork. You guys were fab. Unintentionally funny which is like the best kind of funny. I seriously look forward to the next pod cast!

[goodbyetoyou]

_{I just listened to that and it was my first staff podcast, I picked a good one to come in on! It was really funny, and I enjoyed it, which at first I didn't think I would considering it was just people talking. Great job, and now I am surely going to be listening to more!}

[magicalperfect]

I forgot to add a thank you to Alex for talking about the video that was created in response to HPFF's April Fool's joke! I wasn't around for that or anything for the past year even. That video was sweet and heartfelt.

Also, the beginning was funny too Alex. "I always tell myself to look up which podcast we're on before, but I uh always forget." Even though this chat only had 3 people, I found it much easier to listen to than the older ones that had a lot of people. It makes it hard for me to remember which voice goes to which person!

[LovlyRita]

I totally agree about the voice thing. I also have some constructive criticism for the podcast.

You know, that LovlyRita character? She laughs an awful lot during the production. And it's kind of an obnoxious laugh. If she could just learn to keep the laughing down ESPECIALLY in the first 10 minutes or so when she's kinda nervous and hasn't settled in yet, It would be so much better to listen to.

Andrina is such a gem, though, she adds a whole other perspective...and a Finnish one at that! And Alex, I think everyone needs to give him a standing ovation for what he does for the podcast. He's a magical dude!

[Snowyhedwig]

That was seriously funny. Between Rita demanding canon, and the gollum impression - I haven't laughed that hard in quite some time... Wow - I just sat here and listened to the whole thing while making decorations for my daughter's birthday party...

The discussion over the trailer was fantastic, and I don't think I can look at the Inferi the same way again... or Benjamin Button, for that matter!

Great job, guys, you ROCK!

[scooterbug8515]

Rita your laughing was fine it helped encourage laughter at the whole situation. Laughter is contagious you know.
