Great listen. Have been observing from a distance, the growing anger towards JK Rowling and this podcast provides great insight into behaviours on both sides of the discussion. I’m with JKR so far and yet to be convinced that this is the wrong view, but this podcast has sought to give both opinions which is a balanced approach to such a divisive subject.

Well balanced and honest

These podcasts are not just about the trans-debate but about whether people with opposing ideas and beliefs can and should talk to each other. I would’ve liked a mention of John Stuart Mill “On Liberty“ particularly where he suggests your opponent’s ideas may contain some of the truth.

Really Valuable.
