Mike Schubert is the creator, host, and editor of Potterless, a podcast with over 75,000,000 downloads, following his journey as a grown man reading the Harry Potter series for the first time. Each episode, he is joined by a different HP fan to poke fun at things that don't make sense, make (often incorrect) predictions, and bask in the glory of the sassy characters. He's also the creator of The Newest Olympian, a podcast with a similar structure covering his first reading of the Percy Jackson series. His other podcasts are Meddling Adults, Modern Muckraker, and HORSE. When not podcasting, Mike can be found playing basketball, hiking, and frantically teaching the masses how to Dougie.
