Episode 11 - The Z Word

Happy Pride Month! Our hosts, Chris and Amy, have a lot to say about The Z Word, Lindsay King-Miller’s debut horror novel about Pride and its problematic corporate overlords. At its core, The Z Word is a story about found-family and how necessary it is for queer folks to have a support system surrounding them to make it through the hardships we face on a daily basis. (Zombie apocalypse, anyone?). Lindsay strikes the perfect balance between horror and camp in this delightfully over the top Pride spectacular, while also managing to tell a down to Earth, relatable story that anyone queer will find something to connect to.

Some highlights:

That’s So Gay ft. Doctor Who!
The Big Gay Book Club has stickers!
Campy queer horror - it can’t get much better than that.
Lumberjack bisexual realness.
Zombie apocalypse drag show extravaganza.

As promised, Doctor Who spoilers time stamp: 13:30 - 20:15

Episode 12 - Red, White and Royal Blue

Our hosts Alex and Henry–oops, sorry, Chris and Amy–thoroughly enjoyed the sensationally queer romance novel Red, White and Royal Blue, written by Casey McQuiston. A globe trotting romp that brings together two diametrically opposed foes (yes, that’s a Hamilton reference, which feels incredibly on brand), RWARB (rhubarb) tells the tale of how the president’s son and a member of the royal family fell in love. It’s also an incredibly appreciated piece of escapism that will have you wishing for a world in which a woman runs the white house. #Kamala2024 You’ll not want to miss anything Chris and Amy have to say about a book they both described as being so good they couldn’t put it down!
