Camelot! King Arthur! Guinevere! Morgan Le Faye! This episode C and John tackle Arthuriana and take on the tale of Sir Gawain and The Green Knight! What it means, the mystery behind the author, the connections to nature, and, most of all, the queer undercurrents of the classic poem. Yep, it’s a special Pride episode where we also talk about lgbtia+ history along with feminism! We’re all sorts of social justice warrior this time. Or social justice knights, really. Is that a thing?
