This is the podcast where we watch a movie from our past that had a lasting impression on our little gay lives. If we had no business watching it - we stole our parents VHS copy and watched under the cover of night. If a diva gave a rousing speech - we memorized it and lip-synced it at a talent show. Join Scott and Pete each week for a look back at the Movies That Made Us Gay!

  • Gay Nostalgia, Camp, and a Touch of Starfleet

    These dudes have their finger on the pulse of my brain waves and a direct line to my gay nostalgia. Bonus points for the occasional Star Trek reference. Pure queer excellence.

  • I’m hooked!

    I heard about you from Paul on That Aged Well. I of course had to start at the very beginning of your catalog. When I saw it was Romy and Michelle’s High School reunion, I knew I was in for a treat and had found my people!! I just finished up with Clue and yes, it’s official, I’m in love with this podcast. You guys are so great!

  • Exorcist

    Hey you two, love the show! I just listened to the Exorcist episode and wanted to comment. You had commented that Ingmar Bergman and Ingrid Bergman were married but this is not true; the two were never romantically linked but they were both Swedes.

    The other comment I wanted to make is on the exquisiteness of Exorcist 3. The beauty is in the details of the relationship that Lt Kinderman has with Father Dyer—characters in both 1 and 3–and their shared grief over Father Karras. The epic scenes wi... more
