Episode 17: LGBTQ+ Characters (Canon/Headcanon)
Happy pride month!!! To celebrate Pride, we wanted to sit down and talk about our favorite (and not-so-great) LGBTQ characters. How many characters will we headcanon as queer from Harry Potter? How much will we gush about She-Ra and Rick Riordan books? How much will we complain about HSMTMTS? Warning, mild spoilers ahead for She-Ra and every Percy Jackson book series, among other things, but those have more spoiler-y discussions.
