This podcast is LBGTQ+ friendly, and is opposed to JK Rowling's trans exclusionary views. Trans rights are human rights. We aim to provide a fun, thought provoking discussion of the Harry Potter series that is very much aware of it's successes and shortcomings, and is not afraid to tackle political issues.
