In our last slash of the summer, we take a trip to Sleepaway Camp! With short shorts, crop tops, and one of the most iconic endings of horror history, we’ve got a lot to discuss. NOTE: Our discussion heavily features topics of transgender representation, and includes deadnaming and discussion of trans bodies and body dysmorphia, which may be triggering to some listeners.
