Your Wizard Rock Radio Station
Hello magical friends, especially my magical patrons, who make these interview episodes possible.
Today’s special guest is the glamorous Kalysta Flame!
I know you can’t wait to hear what she has to say but we are a music show first and foremost, so here’s “Incendio” by Nnoa.
Hello magical friends, and welcome to episode 74 of WZRD Radio! I’m your hostwitch Bess and before we get to the music, I want to point you to a petition.
Other folks, including the Goblet of Wine podcast, have said it better, but Harry Potter, and the Harry Potter fandom, are rapidly becoming synonymous with transphobia, anti-Semitism, and bigotry thanks to Rowling and the creators of Hogwarts Legacy. The fact that HBO think that that is a good platform for a new TV show is alarming.
It’s up to us to let people know this is not what the fandom is about, which is why I’m a proud signatory of the HP Fans Against Transphobia petition, asking HBO to reconsider. I’ve put the link in the show notes, and I hope you’ll join me. Until the Harry Potter franchise is no longer used to fund hatred, supporting new projects just isn’t worth the cost. [link]

At last, here’s the music. First up is “Patronus for the Day” by Penelope Clearwater Revival.

But first, some music to get us in the partying mood.
