I’ve really enjoyed this entire podcast- I think we can all learn a great deal from this- about cancel culture- current pop culture- how we got here- and also just being kind to one another - especially woman to woman - feminist to feminist we’re all on the same side- and it does sound like JKR is actually on trans folks side it’s just not as black and white as everyone makes it all seem- I’ve appreciated hearing her out- thank you for the podcast!
Probably the best podcast I’ve ever listened to. I was transfixed from the moment I embarked. From start to finish I binged in two days. Fair, engaging, consistent, and informative. Brilliant work. I abhor polarized opinions that negate honest conversation. Thank you for expanding the dialogue on important issues.
As someone who loves everything that JK Rowling does, and am of a similar age - I feel shamefully that I’ve been living under a rock. Keen to understand what all the fuss was about, I listened to this podcast, and am fully in agreement with everything she says. Is it me, or does anyone else see the irony that Jk Rowling is being treated in the exact same manner, and attitude of which she is accused. A mass gaslighting exercise.
I listened with anticipation to hear JK talk to the online trolling that besieged her
I came to Harry Potter in my 40s and became enchanted by the world she built
Gorgeous production
Excellent listening
I hope the trolls and haters take this opportunity to get a fuller understanding
As Kate Bush said If I only could only could I’d make a deal with God and I’d get him to swap our places
The patience and trust in humanity from the production and both sides of the debate is incredible. All sides have hopes for changes but little hopes for the other side to understand them, which makes me sad. It is a really emotional journey to listen to the podcast. Thanks for bringing us to the debate in this critical time.
