JKR: Hatred, A History

The time has come.  We have to talk about it.

Hogwarts Legacy.

And the trash monster human who created the characters that inspired the game.

In our first listener write-in episode (Thanks Jordan!) we dive into JK Rowling's past, present, and where the future may be headed.  In this first installment of a two part series, Kay Jay and Shim Sham discuss how we got here, and the timeline of events that led us to it. 

And the never-ending melancholy of having nostalgic, childhood heroes turn out to be bigots.  (And what we can do moving forward.)
