Ep. 144 - Extremelining

For Fawkes’ Sake: A Harry Potter Podcast

*After 144 magical episodes, we decided to change our name to better show that we stand with the trans community. We are unable to change our name within those episodes, but will be using For Fawkes’ Sake starting at episode 145 and going forward! New name, same magical Harry Potter compare and contrast!*

Join Ellen and Keighty as we continue with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, covering the first half of Chapter Fifteen (The Hogwarts High Inquisitor) and the film scenes that somehow both correspond and leave a ton out.

While we love Harry Potter, we do not condone or agree with its creator’s ignorant opinions. We stand with the trans community. This will actually be the last episode that we post using the name Just Keep Rowling, as we have decided we want to distance ourselves from using it. It has always been our goal to create a safe and welcoming environment and we acknowledge that we can't fully do that with our current name. She may have given us this series, but Harry Potter belongs to us all now and we want as many people as possible to feel comfortable enjoying the series that brings us so much joy. You can vote for your favorite new name option on social media, starting on Friday, July 29th, 2022. We will be taking a week off to switch the names over and will be back the following week with a shiny new name!
