A woke American's interpretation of HP
Mike is absolutely entitled to his opinions as am I. I listened to all 7 books reading of this podcast before coming to review it. It started off well ngl. Somewhere along the middle Mike lost the plot completely. I saw that Mike was open about some things and completely close-minded about others. Like how Mike took offense to some words just because interpretation of them in one context is sexual without realizing that the same words can be used in many many other contexts without being sexual. Mike ranted about that for no good reason for many many many episodes because Mike couldn't accept that other cultures can't have different ways of saying things? This coming from a guy who in one episode said he is a proponent of diversity. Well, ok then. Mike kept getting many things wrong even though they were explained 10 pages before. Reading the books carefully is the one thing Mike had to do and he fails spectacularly. This podcast should be called "A woke Americans interpretation of Harry Potter" because that is exactly what it is. He throws around words like diversity while he pokes fun of another culture. Can anything be more woke American? I guess not. Do not listen to this podcast if you do not believe in magic. Mike doesn't and it'll irritate you to the point that you'll write a long review like this one.Read full review »

Finished the series this past April after my 23rd b-day, & am glad to hear I'm not the only one who was late for the Hogwarts Express. -wink wink; Having only listened to the Intro & laughed at the slight incorrect assumptions, I know...Read full review »
