Critical Magic Theory: An Analytical Harry Potter Podcast

The "Ratdacity" of Peter Pettigrew

02 Apr 2025

Description

Thirteen years hiding in plain sight. A friendship shattered beyond repair.  A betrayal so bold it rewrote the entire course of the wizarding war. The question isn’t whether Peter Pettigrew had audacity—it’s where he found the ratdacity.In this episode of Critical Magic Theory, we’re scurrying deep into the shadows of the Marauders’ messiest member. Was Peter just a coward—or was he a master strategist in rodent’s clothing? We’re talking betrayal, survival, fear-fueled loyalty, and what happens when your desire to matter eclipses your sense of morality. Plus: we unpack your survey responses, consider what makes a “good” Death Eater (yes, that’s a thing), and reflect on how the Pettigrews among us are closer than we think. And a huge thank you to our newest Deep Divers on Patreon: Sophie, Ariel, and Tammy!Your support means the world—and helps keep this community curious, thoughtful, and full of just the right amount of chaos. As always, my friends— Be critical. Stay magical.
