Episode #4 - Whatever, JK

Nov 03, 2016, 12:48 PM

J.K. Rowling is, as usual, everyone's problematic fave, and Ariana reminds us of some of the Harry Potter universe's highest and lowest points - canon nonwithstanding. Less problematic: Brittany's discovery of the legendary Ursula K Le Guin, and Natalie's return to reading her comfy old Trixie Belden mysteries. Also, The Only Gilmore Girl returns as Brit explains her stress over people engaging with her about her favorite shows. Where does this possessiveness come from? Does everyone experience it? And do we have any Republican listeners? If so... sorry about the intro.

Each episode, our Not About The Weather hosts and their guests will bring an obsession to share and a grievance to air from the their experiences in the world of pop culture, fandom, or sometimes, just plain old life.

#ANA - Ask NATW Anything: "What do you think of Donald Glover casting as Lando?"
