Shownotes Transcript

Join Steven and Brian as we dive into the world of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality! Steven will play the role of the tour guide while doing his best to not spoil any of the surprises and Brian will play the seasoned adventurer who is new to this particular work.

In this episode, we cover chapter 8! Harry meets Hermione Jean Granger, the nicest person ever, who’s even smarter and kinder than the canon version. And Harry keeps acting like a pretentious prick! Are we supposed to learn to like this version of Harry Potter or are we supposed to hate him?

Original chapters, written by Eliezer Yudkowsky, can be read here) and the audiobook chapters, recorded by Eneasz Brodski, can be found earlier in this podcast feed and on the website).

In next week’s episode, we will be covering chapters 9 and 10.
