This episode of Critical Magic Theory picks up where the last episode left off, this time handing the floor to the CMT community. Listeners push back, dig deeper, and refuse to agree — on whether Harry's flaws are his fault, on what standard we're even using to evaluate him, and on the question that generated the most heat: is he extraordinary? Four themes emerge from the conversation: Harry as a product of his environment, the impossible standard applied to a child, the tension between goodness as practice and goodness as grade, and the case, argued with a bevy of receipts, that Harry Potter is, actually, extraordinary. Prof weighs in throughout and closes without resolving the question. That's the point.
