Closing out the year, we're talking about the hit Netflix series, Heartstopper (2022 -), a wholesome show with a surprisingly toxic fandom! In this episode, we discuss the pitfalls of representation discourse, parasocial relationships, identity journeys, what even is queerbaiting, and - above all - queer joy. [Content warning for discussions of homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, sexual assault, and bullying.]
We'll be taking a break at the top of 2023 then we'll be back with more nostalgic (& likely queer) content. Happy New Year!
