  In this episode, Thomas takes us through an iconic piece of queer culture: “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” We discuss what the movie is about, when it was made, why it’s so highly controversial, and what it means to us and the wider queer community.Come join as as we also talk about Dolly Parton’s shameful connection to Thomas’s family (the shameful bit is on his family's side, obviously), and his love of Creature Features (and by extension: Vampira, Elvira, and Anjelica Huston).Check us out across the web!websitepixelfedbskyinstapatreon Content Warning: This episode makes brief mentions of cannibalism and sexual assault.

  Episode 1: Fanny and Stella Part 1 28.01.2026 1ч 26мин

  In the first episode of our second season, Megan shares the story of Fanny and Stella: two gender non-conforming young people from Victorian England who presented female (and sometimes male) while carousing the exciting streets of 1860s/70s London. That is, until their antics got them in hot water with the law in what would be one of the most significant trials in British queer history. In this first part of our two part episode we learn about their lives leading up to their arrest.

  Episode 20: Colonel Barker 17.12.2025 1ч 52мин

  In this episode, Thomas takes us through the life and times of convicted swindler, Victor Barker. From his time in Holloway Prison to the sideshows of Blackpool and beyond, Barker insisted on maintaining a male identity throughout his adultlife despite often being described as a cross-dresser. This early-twentieth century trans-man was not an admirable character, but he was definitely an interesting one.

  Episode 19: The Pansy Craze 20.11.2025 1ч 24мин

  In this episode, Megan talks about The Pansy Craze - a period of increased LGBT visibility in popular culture from the late 1920s until the mid-1930s, that came to an end following the Great Depression, The Hays Code and the rise of World War Two. During the "craze," drag queens, drag kings, masculine women and femme queer men — known as "pansy performers" — experienced a surge in underground popularity, especially in US cities such as New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
