umbridge

The fifth in the Harry Potter series, and the first that Andrew and Brant got to join the world for the midnight book release. From waging war against their new DADA teacher, fighting the forces of Voldemort, and just plain being 15 year old teenagers, this is not an easy year for Harry and company!

Today's root beer is Bundaberg.

In this episode, we discuss Delores Umbridge. Enjoy!

Topics:

• Why does Umbridge go to such lengths with everything she does? There's an intensity that she brings to her everyday life that seems to come from nothing, What is it really?
• Why is Umbridge so sickly sweet? Everything from her clothes to her laugh makes you want to throw up. IS there something she's hiding or is there a person she's trying to become?
• What is her greatest fear? The fear of a person is one of the best ways to find out who they really are. And Umbridge is no different. 
• Much More!

In this episode, I vent my hatred for Umbridge. Enjoy!

Topics:

• Umbridge doesn't really care about people in general. It seems odd, but if you look back at the events of the story, most of Umbridge's moments have been out of dis-taste or dislike of another character, not her positive affiliation for a person in the story. She sacks Tralawny, she punishes Harry for his "lies", she tries to remove Hagrid from Hogwarts. Umbridge continually tries to cleanse the world from those she does't deem worthy.
• Umbridge is entitled beyond belief! That might come from her childhood or some other unknown source, but the fact remains that Umbridge believes she is better than the rest of the wizards and witches she it around. We can see that in the way she treats the students and even the staff. Umbridge sees the rest of the world as beneath her.
