    This is not a show where you’ll find thoughtful discussion. Had to finally unsubscribe after a recent episode, where the hosts set out to determine whether a movie was part of the queer canon, but spent most of the time vapidly screeching about the zodiac signs of fictional characters. I even came back once to hear their take on another movie, and they couldn’t stop speculating on the star sign of a character in a film. That is not criticism.
