In our latest episode we continue our look at queer culture on film with the modern classic "But I'm a Cheerleader". What was it like discovering it at a time when queer filmmakers had to struggle to even hint at homosexuality in their titles? What's it like to watch for the first time in 2025?

Definitely an area of bad science we'd like to come back to, and very relevant to our earlier episode on bad transphobic science

There's no way to talk LGBTQ+ mental health without talking about civil rights. If you're in the LA area, check out this film by @samfeder.bsky.social, or better yet, send people who don't fully "get it". As always, check in with yourself about your emotional needs beforehand. This is rough stuff!
