So much good advice! Thank you all so very much and I’ll try to keep it all in mind. I’m already in love and am still a bit giddy. I really appreciate all of the kind words.

Generally all of them. Every time I consider this question about an artist, I try and consider if I was the victim in the crime. Would I be okay hearing, seeing, or listening to this any longer? If the answer is no, then it’s no for me.

I want to live empathetically and have to put my money where my mouth is.

I listened to the podcast. The interviewer doesn’t challenge Rowling at all and simply lets her speak/answer with her incorrect assumptions. However it also shined a light on how badly thought out her ideas are and how informed she is, not by empathy, but by her own prejudice. After listening, I became even more confident in my opinion of Rowling.

I also think it’s worth a listen is you can swallow your bile for the first few episodes.
