The Lavender Menace

This episode we discuss TWO (2) listener hot takes that appeared in our inbox! One regarding women’s anger, and another regarding the recent uproar about Billie Eilish (queer baiting?!) Then we go on to discuss recent happenings in the Swiftie world and reflect on season one of the podcast, doubling down on our Gaylorism. Finally, we go through all the media we’ve recommended to each other over the last nine episodes, which you can find as our pinned thread on twitter @thelavenderpod. Thank you so much for the past season of listening and supporting us! We appreciate you so much, and can’t wait to keep talking about sapphic things with you in season two. Follow Sunny and Renaissance on Instagram (@sunnywithacamera @renaissancemarie) so you can join us in kicking off season 2 of the podcast with our Instagram liveshow Friday evening, June 25th. Tweet at us or email us at [email protected] with any hot take suggestions you want us to discuss in the Instagram live or season 2 of the podcast!

Previous Episode

None of you know any lesbians IRL and it shows, Solar Power af, & music slays

This episode (shorter than 45 minutes?! GASP!) Renaissance and Sunny discuss how lesbophobic you bitches (internet queers) are and our journeys to lesbianism. Yay! Then we gush about how much we love Lorde's single Solar Power despite the unnecessary heterosexuality of it. As usual, our three part show ends with us recommending media to each other, and instead of the usual Sunny's book recommendations and Renaissance's movies and shows, we talk about music we've been enjoying lately, namely Elise Morgan's girlboss gaslight gatekeep playlist on Spotify and Megan Thee Stallion's latest music video and single drop, Thot Shit.

The tik tok we are discussing for this week's hot take linked belowwww. Also the Spotify playlist Sunny recommended!

Straights in gay bars discourse, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo obsession era, Taylor Jenkins Reid owns us af

Welcome to season 2 of The Lavender Menace!

We kicked off the second season of the podcast on Instagram live (@renaissancemarie @sunnywithacamera)! Starting off with hot takes as usual, a listener named Robin submitted a wonderful email about their straight sister going to gay bars but also being homophobic...? And we talk about how irritating it is to have people encroach on spaces not for them. Also Renaissance is currently grappling with a The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid hyperfixation so we discuss that at length, particularly in relation to our ongoing Taylor Swift obsession. Sunny recently also read and recommends Taylor Jenkins Reid's most recent book Malibu Rising and talks about the crossovers within these books. Along with the novel Malibu Rising, Sunny also recommends the sapphic fantasy A Curse of Roses by Diana Pinguicha to Renaissance, and Renaissance recommends the lesbian rom-com Imagine Me and You (2005).
