In this episode, we discuss the most iconic groups in Harry Potter. Enjoy!

Topics/Summary:
· Listen to episode 252 about McGonagall’s Best Moments here!

· 1:45 Dumbledore’s Army. This is a very well known group, but there are a few things that really make them stand out. The first is when a selection goes to the Ministry to free Sirius. It turns out to be a trap, but the DA stands up to the Death Eaters and actually manage to hold them off for long enough. The second is in the final book when they have kept the DA going even after Harry left, and then in the Battle of Hogwarts when many members could protect themselves again evil.

· 8:54 Newt, Jacob, and Albus. They aren’t in Harry Potter, but they are certainly iconic enough to fit into this episode. The thing that makes them stand out is how noble they are. Newt and Albus are fighting hard against Grindelwald at the risk of losing their own lives. Further, Jacob is doing the same with nothing on the line. The threat of losing freedom in the world is always there, but before Jacob understands that, he is still fighting alongside Newt because he knows it is the right thing to do.

· 14:55 The Gryffindor Quidditch Team. This might be less obvious, but the team is iconic because of the plot that happens around them. Quidditch is also the trademark sport of the wizarding world, and the Gryffindor team is the one that Harry plays on and learns his love of quidditch on. Things like swallowing the snitch and seeing the Grim all happened surrounding the team.

· 20:17 The Order of the Phoenix. They’re iconic because of their legacy. The Order that we know today is the second generation, the first coming into being when Voldemort was first on the rise. This gives it a sense of age and legacy, so when they swoop in for the rescue, it isn’t a bunch of aurors but the famous Order of the Phoenix.

· 25:24 The trio. We would get here eventually. How much is there to say really? I don’t even have to say their names for every person to know exactly about whom I speak.
