Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) talk about why Wine Country Should've Been Gay-er. According to IMDB, when a group of longtime girlfriends goes to Napa for the weekend to celebrate their friend's 50th birthday, tensions from the past boil over. Full of SNL veterans, Rachel Dratch, Paula Pell, Maya Rudolph, Emily Spivey, Tina Fey and Ana Gasteyer, this movie does not disappoint. We know this film is already gay and THANK YOU for that representation. Out actress Paula Pell plays Val, everyone's best lesbian friend and the only love story in the film is between two queer women. BUT what if it was gayer? Tina Fey? More like Tina Gay! Are we right? Tina Fey's character Tammy is a gay icon in her flannels and vests and the chemistry between Tammy and Catherine (Ana Gasteyer) is palpable. Even Amy Poehler said she's open to Tammy having a late in life gay epiphany and we are all here for it. Out actress Paula Pell plays Val, everyone's best lesbian friend and the only love story in the film is between two queer women.

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Ariela Barer(@arielabarer), actress and up and coming director. You might know Ariela as Gert on Runaways, Carmen in One Day At A Time or from her coming out tweet because what is more queer than coming out on Twitter? We chat about pre-gay friendships, those friendships that are just "a little bit queer", friend breakups, when it feels like you're dating your best friend and why we feel the need to form intimate friendships with women before we come out.

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) talk about why Incredibles 2 Should've Been Gay. Voyd is the queer fan girl in all of us when she meets Elastigirl. Violet will totally have a coming out moment in college. And the biggest lesbian of them all is Evelyn Devers, our favorite super villain. What's the gayest thing about her? Her hair is perfectly unkempt. Her outfits just scream boss lesbian. That lesbian smoulder. The fact that she can't sit. There is too much evidence to pick just one. And Elastigirl herself. Is sexuality elastic? She falls in love with being the gender roles being reversed and we don't think that's the only think she falls in love with.

Leigh and Ellie dive into The Favourite for this Lez-ssentials episode, a recurring segment on the essential movies and TV shows in the lesbian canon. The Favourite is a 2018 film about two women, Abigail (Emma Stone) and Lady Sarah Malborough (Rachel Weisz) fighting for the affections of Queen Elizabeth (Olivia Colman). Also starring Rachel Weisz' boobs, her jaunty pirate outfit, Emma Stone falling down a bunch and 17 rabbits. We talk about petty lesbians, rubbing legs and why we should eat the rich.

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) talk about why Afternoon Delight, a horribly strange movie on Amazon Prime Should've Been Gay. According to The IMDB synopsis, Rachel is a quick-witted and lovable stay-at-home mom. Frustrated with the realities of preschool auctions, a lackluster sex life and career that's gone kaput, Rachel visits a strip club to spice up her marriage and meets McKenna, a stripper she adopts as her live-in nanny. If that isn't gay, then we don't know what is. From bored housewife to the sensual massage that McKenna gives Rachel with VapoRub to Rachel literally watching McKenna in bed, this movie just screams gay. Oh and did we mention that Jane Lynch is her lesbian therapist? Join us on this strange journey of a movie.

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) are joined by Karen Knox (@karenxknox) and Gwenlyn Cumyn (@gwenlyn.cumyn), the co-creators and stars of Barbelle (@barbelle.series) as our first two time guests to talk about why Harry Potter Should Have Been Gay. In a world where magic is always a metaphor for gayness, gay magic children are sent to the opposite of conversion camp where their gay headmaster encourages them to hone their gayness and become super gays. Karen ships Harry and Draco aka #darry or #drarry and their hot summer romance doing wizarding community service in their magic pick up truck. Leigh ships Hermione Granger as the woman that no man deserves and Fleur Delacour #fleurmione as equals in wit and beauty who fall in love as young teachers at Hogwarts. Ellie talks about all of the characters who are just straight up gay from Madame Hooch, Sybill Trelawney, Minerva Mcgonagall and Tonks. Extreme wishful thinking for Bellatrix Lestrange leads them all down a strangely kinky path and shipping Luna Lovegood and Bellatrix #lovestrange. Gwen ships Luna Lovegood and Ginny, but comes to the conclusion that Ginny is a wet blanket and Luna can do so much better. #linny Listen to the episode to hear more!
