Let's jump right into the magical world's secrets with a debate on the biggest secret of all: the secret of magic itself.

What are your opinions on the International Statute of Secrecy? Is it a fair law? When is it okay to break the law and reveal the secret of magic to Muggles? And what would you do if a Muggle discovered your secret and tried to take advantage of it?

Good point! Recently I read that the more "democratized" nature of broadcasting has made it somewhat harder to craft long-standing recognizable jokes about certain topics--this was a Guardian article in relation to how anyone can make a joke about Margaret Thatcher dying, so the well-known comics who were once the arbiters of comedy are now just one part of a large landscape of humor. So the same could be said of revealing magic, huh?
