'''''MuggleCast''''' is a Harry Potter podcast that is hosted by Eric Scull, Andrew Sims, Micah Tannenbaum, and Laura Thompson.<ref>{{cite press release|url=https://money.cnn.com/news/newsfeeds/articles/marketwire/06168150.htm|title=2006 People's Choice Podcast Awards}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6904289.stm|title=Harry Potter and the podcasters|website=BBC News}}</ref> Sims came up with the idea for the podcast and pitched it to the founder of MuggleNet, Emerson Spartz, who originally thought it was a bad idea.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://scholarworks.boisestate.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2908&context=student_newspapers|title=Harry Potter makes a 17 Year old a Star|author=Toni Callas|website=The Arbiter}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Collecting pieces of Harry's Legacy|url=https://www.inquirer.com/philly/home/gardening/20090717_Fans_hold_on_to_the_Potter_magic_.html|website=The Philadelphia Inquirer}}</ref> It was the first MuggleNet podcast and was released on August 7, 2005, and was hosted by Ben Schoen, Sims, and Kevin Steck.
After the release of the [[Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]] and before the announcement of [[Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (film)]] the hosts announced that they were ending the show and put out a finale episode on August 26, 2013. However, less than a month later, the hosts released another episode discussing the announcement of the aforementioned [[Fantastic Beasts (film series)|Fantastic Beasts]] series. A little over a year later, on the December 27, 2014 episode of the show, it was announced that the show would return to releasing regular episodes.
The show was launched as part of [[MuggleNet]] but split from the site in 2011.
