This week's suggested pairing is BOY MY GREATNESS, Zoe's play which you can now stream on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/posts/boy-my-greatness-101958042 NOTE: We're getting back into the swing of things, so the audio quality is a bit crummy this episode!

| 1/14/22 | Request Special! Jarchie, Tomgreg, Les Mis, and Dead Poet’s Society | This is a bit of a different episode! Instead of covering one queerbait, we're touching on a few different ships that have been highly requested but that we wouldn't normally dedicate a full episode to, plus one special surprise ship at the end that may not be bait, and may never have been requested, but we just wanted to talk about it. This week's suggested pairing is the essay In Defense of Dead Poet's Society by Christopher Cantwell | 1h 10m 53s | ||||||
