Tim’s take

He mostly treats Harry Potter as shorthand for default taste — the book everyone recommends, the theme park families get shuttled to in a van 28:42 14:12 16:18. It keeps resurfacing as a prop in his bits, from the Gringotts-goblin-bankers riff to the mock wedding vows built around it 48:14 34:22 50:10. He separately cites the JK Rowling backlash as proof a minor issue can swallow the news cycle, mentioning he enjoys the audiobooks himself in passing 49:04 52:29.
