WZRD Radio Podcast

Not only is it new episode day over here, the latest throwback from Fanatical Fics is from when *they* came on WZRD and talked wizard rock!
Happy Wrockin' Wednesday, everyone!

We've been up to a LOT this summer, magical friends! If you haven't been to the merch shop in a while you might not have seen the cookie jars, cds, and zines we added just in the last couple months!

How was EnchantiCon, magical friends?

Episode 125: Celestial Warmbottom

Hello magical friends, and welcome to episode 125 of WZRD Radio! I’m your hostwitch Bess, and today I have just so many special treats for you! First of all, the WZRD Radio 5th anniversary comp, “Just Joy,” is available today! I’ll include a link in the transcript…

All the contributor CDs are off and away!
Just Joy is *thiiiis* close to being realized and out in the world!

Save the date, tell your magical friends, and get ready to Wrock out!

We know not everyone can be in St. Louis this weekend for EnchantiCon, but we thought it would be a shame for anyone who might be interested to miss out on the wizard rock show happening this Friday night! So, we will be streaming the whole thing on the WZRD Radio Instagram!

I'm so excited for everyone to see why I'm obsessed with this little kneazle.

In the wise words of SCitF DQ, Voldemort can't stop the wrock and neither can anyone else! So if you're going to EnchantiCon, there's going to be a wrock show!

You're not ready for how silly I'm going to get with this one, magical friends

I am so *grateful* to my magical patrons, whose support lets me do things like monthly interview episodes and (most relevantly) buy more wizard rock!

It's BandCamp Friday, when BandCamp waives their fees so all money goes to the artists.

Get shopping, magical friends!

I'm so excited to welcome a new magical friend! I've got a zine accepting submissions at the moment too, if he's a writer/drawer/creative.

It's the last day to get Just Joy songs in, magical friends!

This is a preemptive apology to the people of "Gallipolis, OH," whose town I unquestionably mangle in the upcoming episode.

Three days, magical friends! Three days to get in that song or spoken word piece about what makes you happiest in the Harry Potter fandom.
Let's do it!

All right magical friends, what do we have coming up in August? What needs to be included in the round up?

You've got a week to get Just Joy comp songs in, so get recording!
