Queer Projection
This is a movie podcast about finding queer themes damn near everywhere. Hosts Alethia St. Joan and Danny Carroll share a 30+ year friendship that has been bound together by a shared love for movies. A trans woman and a gay man respectively, Alethia and Danny explore what these movies meant to them while they were young and closeted, and what revisiting these movies means for the actualized, arguably maladjusted adults they’ve become. It’s a heady, often crass and sometimes crude blend - part nostalgia trip, part queer theory, part film criticism. Check it out!

I was too embarrassed to tell Steven Soderbergh how much I loved him while I was working for him, so instead we made this podcast about one of his most interesting and least recognized movies. What's queer about this one? Mainly how the nature of heartbreak and self doubt can rend reality and make you a stranger to yourself. Deep stuff! Great movie! Maybe Soderbergh will listen? Steven, call me.

This one is for the film buffs. This one is NOT for people who really love cats. We discuss weird teenage bodies, dire socioeconomic situations, and Chloe Sevigny kissing Bunny Boy. Is this a science fiction movie? Not really, but Werner Herzog certainly seems to think so. Is he right? Let's find out!

In this episode we revisit a world where cartoons inexplicably live among humans as second class citizens. Just as inexplicable are the licensing agreements required to get WB and Disney characters on screen at the same time as peripheral characters. Could repressing your inner toon be why you're drinking so much? Let's find out!

The usual introductory episode where we cover the basics - who we are, what this podcast is about, and why we think it's important for queer people to see their experiences reflected in ALL art, whether it was made explicitly for queer people or not. We give an explanation for why some gendered words are bleeped but f-slurs are not, and why you should listen to this podcast with your teenager even though it has many aforementi...
