Episode 127: The Auteur's Respect

Deathly Hallows chapter 15. On this powerful mega-episode, we immerse ourselves in an Audio Experience, watch the Snyder Cut trailer, check in on JK Rowling's favorite new Epic Win Gentleman twitter guys--and that's all before we get to the chapter! This week's camping adventure sees Ron going Boromir Mode, so naturally we talk about Lord of the Rings for a while as well as more Wizarding religion talk, the logistics of acquiring food in the British wilderness, and the nature of the immortal soul (again). Finally, we put our heads down and complete a homework assignment as intrepid redditor Jack Sloper! Some notes: At 22:45 or so, we chat about JK's twitter business--if you'd rather not hear us discussing transphobic tweets, skip to 28 minutes. Likewise, if you're not particularly interested in hearing the specifics of this chapter's frankly unbelievable antisemitism, skip from 2:05:00 to 2:24:50
