You could have spent more time on an original name for the podcast and less time bashing half your fan base.
If you actually wanted to discuss intersectionality, how about examining why they made the bad guy (Casa) black on the TV show? Why they made Vetinari a woman, and the female dwarf into a trans giant? Discworld featured a little person in the Watch, and the TV show straight up removed her.
Or how in basically every book, the male protagonist is a bumbling/bigoted idiot (Rincewind, The Unseen Wizards, Two Flower, Detritus, Nobby and Colon, Vimes) and the females are always a snarky, cigarette-smoking trained assassin, a werewolf, or princess?
Literally every female character is ultimately a dutchess or magic in some way. I get that the "unimpressed, eye-rolling femme fatale" is appealing to young female readers, but for everyone else its just gaslighting. The females in this book do not lack power, either in their story arc or personal devopment.
It really seems like you just wanted a space to dogpile, not discuss the books.
