June 13, 2025 274: Bad Book Club: Harry Potter and the Nice Manifesto, Idiot
Ugh. We're back with part two of our Bad Book Club on the Harry Potter fanfiction that makes My Immortal seem like classic literature. We actually get into reading the text of this steaming pile on this one and it's BAD. Find out more about what Draco Malfoy will do once he's old enough, what's in Quirrell's weird little boudoir, why Harry is the most specialist boy alive, and more. We would normally link to the text so you can read it yourself but this isn't the tape from The Ring so we're not going to curse you with it.

June 06, 2025 273: Bad Book Club: Harry Potter and the Methods of Um, Actually
We're back with our favorite type of gimmick episode: Bad Book Club! Or in this case, Bad Fanfic Club. It's a two-parter where this first episode contains our general thoughts and context on the purpose of the text, who wrote it, and why it's essentially a manifesto wearing a lightning scar and circular glasses. Part two, coming next week, will get into the nitty gritty of what makes it so particularly terrible. If you want additional background, go listen to our recent episode with Adam Becker, where we first hatch the AWFUL idea to read this, and also more information on the author. If you really, really hate yourself and don't value your own time, this fanfiction is available to read for free online. No, I'm not going to link you to it, because I'm not a sadist. You can't say I didn't warn you.

May 09, 2025 269: Maeby's Basilisk (feat. Adam Becker)
On this very long (but in a good way) episode, we have a wonderful conversation with author and journalist Adam Becker (@adambecker.bsky.social) about his new book "More Everything Forever: AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley's Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity." It's a wide-ranging discussion about that exact subtitle, The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect, terrible Harry Potter fanfiction, the writing process, and much more! Seriously, this is a good one. And Adam's book is excellent-- find it wherever books are sold! Check out our Patreon for ad-free and video episodes (and more!) at patreon.com/leightonnight.
