Exactly 365 days ago, I sat down and decided to make a new podcast devoted to Wizard Rock. To be honest with you, I didn’t even know that much about Wrock. But I thought that such a unique show would be successful and lots of fun to do. And it sure has been. Once intended to be a solo project, I invited Mike and Jay along in Episode 4 and they both have been a key part to APWR’s fun-filled shows.
The show has gone through 22 recorded shows, 2 live shows, and 6 failed recording sessions or never-to-be-released shows. APWR has been downloaded 53,070 times, has been mentioned on Wikipedia’s Harry Potter Fandom Page, and held the top spot on Podcast Alley’s Top Music Podcast List for several months in a row.
We do this show for many reasons, but our favorite part of APWR is your enjoyment in our show and of course the Wrock. It’s incredible to think that just a year ago this show was nothing; and even with our long gaps between episodes, APWR is just getting started.
We thank you for listening to APWR and enjoying Wizard Rock with us. Here’s to another year and beyond of Accio-Potter Wizard Radio! Our celebration show will be released this week, with preparation starting for our Christmas Show and New Years Show!

We’ve been asked that question a lot the past few months. In truth, we’ve started a TwiRock podcast to replace APWR. We feel that there is a lot more to offer in the Twilight fandom.
Just kidding!
So our last show was released a month ago, and a few rumors have been going around that we have ended the show. Not true! We’ve never had that idea cross our minds, especially now that the party is just getting started.
We are coming back with our greatest lineup ever, and hope to release the show no later than this weekend! Stay tuned!

Hey Everyone!
It’s Alex here letting you know that expect to release our next show this weekend! Mike and I have both been hit with deadly forms of Busy Disease, but we should be good to go with a recording session tomorrow. We apologize for the long delay (a month!) but if you wait just a few more days, we’ll bring you one of our best line ups yet - thanks to claire for putting it together! See you all soon!
EDIT:
Maybe we have really bad luck. But, unfortunately Alex was sick on Sunday and was unable to record. We’ll try to record later today (Monday) and release the show as soon as possible!

Accio-Potter Wizard Radio has turned into something much greater than we had ever anticipated. With 19 shows under our belt, we are proud of what we’ve done so far. We’ve listened to around 300 wizard rock songs from many different bands, and it’s been fun. But we think it’s time to take our show to the next level. Our next episode will be our 20th, and we’ve decided to make it the final show of APWR, Season 1.
But what can you expect from Season 2? When does it start?
Don’t worry! There will be no delay between the first two seasons. We hope to get Episode 21 out 2 weeks after Episode 20.
In Season 2, you can expect:
Interviews with bands about both their music and themselves as a person and Potter fan! (something you don’t get to see too often)
More themed episodes
More bands that we haven’t played yet
More segments
Longer shows
…and the return of APWR LIVE!
But we still need your help… have an idea for the show? Email us at apwr@accio-potter.com with something wrock-related that you want to see us do.
Of course, we’ll cover all of this (as well as look back at Season 1) in Episode 20 which will be available before this weekend.

APWR has 2 listings on Facebook: Our fan group, and now our Page. Join the group and then become a fan, then send it to all your HP friends to spread the love that radiates from your ipod when you listen to APWR. I could make a great Mike joke here, but I’ll save him the embarrassment and tell you again: Send an invite to the group and page to your friends, and help us out! We really appreciate it. Thanks!
