Carol, Bound, and Other Queer Movies Worth Your Time

We decided to keep the Pride-themed conversation rolling, and this time around we discuss our favorite movies (and one episode of TV) that feature queer characters, queer love/romance, and queer stories. We cover ‘90s indie movies, sweet romcoms, cult hits, period dramas, and a lot more.

This episode was produced by Rachel and Sally and edited by Lucas Nguyen. Our logo was designed by Amber Seger (@rocketorca). Our theme music is by Tiny Music. MJ Brodie transcribed this episode. Follow us on Twitter @OhILikeThatPod.
