"I Care a Lot"

Plus, T.J. gives Aaron and a hard time for not knowing how Troye Sivan is (or that he's a top). Give it a listen!

"Rope"

Join Aaron and T.J. this week as they discuss Alfred Hitchcock's Rope, a tautly constructed drama about two men who murder their classmate, thinking that they've pulled off the perfect killing. They discuss the erotics of suffering and the star text of Farley Granger, the film's aesthetics and, of course, the most pressing question of all: just what makes these two characters gay, anyway? Plus, they talk about the ethics of staying on Twitter in the aftermath of Elon Musk's takeover. Give it a listen!

In this week's episode, Aaron and T.J. discuss Schimigadoon! and Schmicago, the hilarious musical series from Apple TV+.

"Mommie Dearest"

"Party Monster"

In this week's episode, Aaron and T.J. discuss Party Monster, the 2003 film starring Macaulay Culkin and Seth Green. Focusing on the infamous Michael Alig, it's a cotton-candy acid trip of a film but, beneath of all of its camp excess there lurks a rich and resonant queer tragedy. In addition to diving into the film, your favorite co-hosts also discuss their own deeply personal relationships to the film.
