Send us a textIn this solo episode of Your Child Is Normal, pediatrician and mom of three Dr. Jessica Hochman explores a summer parenting dilemma almost all families face: what to do when kids say, “I'm bored.”Rather than seeing boredom as a problem to fix, in episode makes the case that it's actually a gift. Drawing on developmental psychology and research, she explains how boredom helps children develop creativity, autonomy, and emotional regulation. You'll hear stories about J.K. Rowling, Albert Einstein, and Thomas Edison—all of whom had major breakthroughs during moments of stillness—and learn why screens might be getting in the way of your child's imagination.Dr Jessica Hochman  shares practical tips on how to reset your child's attention, protect downtime, and welcome boredom into your family's summer.If you're feeling pressure to overschedule your child, or if you're hearing a lot of “I'm bored!” this summer, this episode will help you reframe those moments as opportunities for growth.Credited StudiesEastwood et al – The unengaged mind: Defining boredom in terms of attention.

This week on The Literary Life, Angelina and Thomas wrap up our encore series on J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter: Book 1. Angelina and Thomas begin the episode with some thoughts on their Aristotelian approach to literature as seen in this series of episodes. After sharing their commonplace quotes, they dive into their discussion of the last few chapters of the book. Some of the ideas they consider are how the entire plot is a series of symbols, alchemy and the allegory of the soul, and the figure of the “wildman” in the literary tradition. They also go over the characters of the centaurs, the significance of the unicorn, more references to Greek mythology, how Harry exemplifies the “chest” of the well-ordered man, and the great importance of the philosopher's stone as a Christ symbol.  Visit HouseofHumaneLetters.com for classes with Angelina, Thomas, and other members of their teaching team.

J. K. Rowling continue sa croisade transphobe. En début juin 2025, l'écrivaine de la saga Harry Potter a annoncé créer un fond de pour soutenir les organisations “qui luttent pour maintenir les droits des femmes fondés sur le sexe biologique”, sous entendu : transphobe. Et le soutien financier de J. K. Rowling ce n'est pas rien puisqu'en mai 2025, le magazine Forbes estimait sa fortune à 1,2 milliards de dollars américain.  Ce n'est pas la première fois que l'autrice écossaise tient des positions transphobes… Ce qui peut en surprendre certains puisque comme l'explique un article de nova du 17 juin 2025, “c'est elle qui en 2015 applaudissait quand un théâtre recrutait une Hermione noire pour rejouer Harry Potter, qui a défendu les exilés, le système de santé publique, l'avortement, le respect des homosexuels…” En fait, J. K. Rowling se revendique tout simplement TERF. Ça veut dire quoi TERF ? Pourquoi font-elles polémique ? Qui sont les représentantes des TERF en France ?

There's a strange place where the far left and far right nearly embrace. You'll find it at farmers markets, homeschool co-ops, in YouTube rabbit holes, and in the quiet affinity between a Colorado ayahuasca mom and a West Virginia herbalist dad. It's not the Horseshoe Theory as smug centrists invoke it — it's a lived convergence of spiritual autonomy and revolutionary distrust.This isn't speculative. It's happening now. People who once shared political ground now find themselves estranged — not over war or taxes, but over co-ops, vaccine status, or a stray mention of “energy.” The water has boiled, and only some frogs noticed.In Waldorf and evangelical circles alike, the refrains echo: institutional schooling is toxic; history is propaganda; the state doesn't own your kids. One parent unschools in linen overalls. Another teaches Latin in a denim skirt. Both fear the same enemies: Common Core, TikTok, Bill Gates, and the spiritual corrosion of modern life.At any coastal city's farmers market, the convergence is palpable. Progressives hunt organic greens. Right-wingers seek raw milk. They may vote differently, but they agree on food purity, local sourcing, and USDA distrust. This isn't a Costco run — it's a ritual of parallel economy and moral consumption.Leftist spiritual seekers now share digital space with tradwife influencers. What began as aesthetic escapism — aprons, homemaking, cottagecore — now bleeds into ideology. Anti-WEF rants. Medical autonomy screeds. Seed oil conspiracies. The algorithm doesn't care what aisle you vote in — it only cares that you stay.Let's be blunt: “Pureblood” now signals those who refused the COVID-19 vaccine. It's no longer a joke. It's a badge — of sovereignty, spiritual purity, or bodily autonomy. Some refuse transfusions from vaxxed donors. Others reject romantic partners who got the jab. We're watching a new caste system emerge — not racial, but pharmaceutical.Rowling's “mudblood” metaphor was prophetic. Now, vaccine status dictates desirability, morality, even perceived cleanliness. The same culture that once rejected purity tests is recreating them in biomedical drag.Policy isn't what unites these groups. Epistemology is. Both left and right are united by betrayal — by the CDC, FDA, WHO, and media. One side says it's global depopulation. The other says it's trauma capitalism. Both agree: the system lies. The experts failed. Truth is for sale.And no one in charge knows what they're doing.The first cafés to reopen during the pandemic weren't filled with NPR liberals. They were havens for the ungovernable: Orthodox Jews, off-grid mystics, plant medicine moms, trad dads. Conversations ranged from ayahuasca visions to terrain theory. One had a Bible. One had shrooms. Both hated Fauci.The mask became their common symbol — not of safety, but of submission.This isn't abstract critique. It's personal. Kids with mask-induced tics. Farmers who lost their flocks to top-down policy. Nurses applauded one day, fired the next. Veterans discarded. It's not just a culture war — it's a trust collapse.When trust collapses, people stop asking who's left or right. They start asking: who's still human?In this liminal space, we aren't witnessing polarization — we're witnessing fusion. Not a centrist mush, but a recombination of anti-establishment firepower.It's not a horseshoe because they want to be near each other. It's a horseshoe because the terrain has bent. And when the map fails, people follow the feeling: that the system is broken, that no one's coming, and that salvation — if it comes at all — might arrive from the edges, not the center.Homeschooling as PraxisThe Farmers Market as Liminal ZoneYouTube and the Tradwife Pipeline“Pureblood” Identity PoliticsThe War Against Institutional TrustThe Café ConvergenceInstitutional Betrayal as Breaking Point

Angelina opens the book discussion with an overview of the literary motifs used by Rowling in the Harry Potter books to help modern readers better understand these kinds of stories. One of the motifs she highlights is the identity quest and how we see Harry on a journey of the soul. She also shares some thoughts on the fairy tale “magic” of these stories in contrast to actual witchcraft as well as the symbolism used to show us that this is a fairy world. Thomas and Angelina talk about the characters we meet in these chapters, including the symbolism of some of their names. Other ideas discussed in this episode include the importance of alchemy, the Gothic literary tradition, the layers of the quest, the rise of the fantasy genre, and so much more!

Welcome to the podcast, Sunny Williams! Sunny's roots in fandom and wizard rock, and her impressive academic career, make her a perfect fit for our episode today. We revisit the topic of J.K. Rowling, whose new 'Women's Fund' will help advance anti-trans legal cases. Our previous episodes that addressed the author were Episode 447b and Episode 469, both worth a re-listen. The hosts share their thoughts on the last 5 years of disappointment, from infinite double-downs to behavior that is antithetical to the works which we celebrate. Eric takes us through the most recent year in anti-trans legislation, featuring two huge pseudoscientific reports, not peer reviewed and forcefully discredited by major medical organizations, which are nevertheless being used to strip transgender people from accessing healthcare through legislation. The actual science is so in-favor of trans people receiving healthcare, that its opponents have suggested other ways of measuring its efficiency, like whether receivers currently have a job. Rowling's astonishing cruelty is on display daily on X, and her initiatives and gender-policing have been shown to affect ALL women, as the rise on assaults of women in rest areas has grown around hostility towards anyone seen as gender non-conforming by strangers empowered to act. The hosts use scenarios from the Potter books to illustrate what's presently happening. Sunny guides us through the ethics of financially supporting problematic creators, with thoughts from Socrates, Hannah Arendt, Henry David Thoreau, and others! To wrap, we discuss our continued strategy for keeping the fandom progressive and inclusive.

On today's Super U Podcast, Equalman breaks down the NCAA's Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) rules, which have allowed college athletes to profit from endorsements and other commercial uses of their identity, fundamentally changing the traditional amateurism model in college sports. NIL has made college athletes like free agents, able to negotiate deals and influence transfers, blurring amateur and professional lines. And inconsistent state rules have made it hard for the NCAA to ensure fair and equal competition.   Podcast highlights: Disruption of team cohesion, as teammates may have vastly different earning potentials. Increased recruiting battles based on financial incentives rather than athletic or academic fit. Smaller programs struggling to compete with larger schools that can facilitate more lucrative NIL opportunity   Is there a topic you want Equalman to cover on the podcast?

What do maternal tropes, mediocre men, and magical possession all have in common? In this "Prof Responses" episode, Professor Julian Wamble returns to unpack the post-episode chats on two very different figures: Minerva McGonagall and Quirinus Quirrell. Was McGonagall really written as a maternal figure—or have we reimagined her to reflect a world Rowling couldn't envision? And what do we do with Quirrell, a Ravenclaw who might've been smart enough to find Voldemort but foolish enough to wear him like a backpack? From challenging the “mom or mess” dichotomy to breaking down the blurry lines between agency and possession, this episode dives into how fandom, canon, and cultural context shape the way we read these characters. And yes, favoritism, ambition, and the overconfidence of mediocre white men all make an appearance. As always, stay critical while keeping it magical!

Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 25: The Beetle at Bay. MuggleCast last discussed this chapter on Episode 462! Harry's feelings toward his fellow students in light of the Azkaban breakout headlines have us once more feeling like we are living in the books today. The Ministry's control of information and issuance of propaganda, the extent which is confirmed in this chapter, is massive but not perfect. Some who look deeper are beginning to see the cracks in the facade. Umbridge's power grabs are becoming unenforceable. The hosts discuss how her main goal appears to be to frighten and dissuade dissenters, even among the staff. Harry and students are impressed by Neville's recent hard work in the D.A. This reminds us about when we made the "Neville Gets Swole" Spotify playlist, perfect for your summertime runs and workouts! Is Hermione single-handedly changing the course of the Wizarding world? We think so. Is there anything the students can/should be doing about Hagrid and his probation? Or is his behavior just too weird, and the students too buried in coursework? Ron has a fair idea, but Hermione shuts him down cold. We hold a memorial service for Ron's strategical aptitude subplot from Book 1. In what ways was "Madame Puddifoot's" NOT the perfect Valentine's spot, and whose fault is it that Harry and Cho's date is a disaster? Was it doomed from the start? Is Rita Skeeter looking for redemption, or just some hot goss? Odds & Ends asks why Ron, Fred or George do not seem to know about Antonin Dolohov's connection with their uncles, nor do they mention it. Most #RealTalk moment of the week? Hosts weigh in.
