Last Podcast On The Left

Please put these stupid movie episodes in a different podcast feed. They’re hot garbage phoned in to serve some contract requirement.

Hi! Gay guy here. Still giving y’all 5 stars because I’m a longtime fan and I don’t want to penalize you, but around the 5-6 minute mark (and beyond) of the Cruising ep of Movie Stories there are some big, broad, and under-qualified statements about how the gay community ~feels~ about it. Personally, I’m quite fond of the film, as are many of my (let’s say) like-minded friends; some critiques still hold up, but there’s a great deal of missed context as to why activists at the time were hypervigilant about representation, and a lot of (sorry) arrogantly-spouted apochrypha regarding how we supposedly “feel,” or even felt at the time. If I could humbly make a couple suggestions, I’d urge you to A) not treat a community as a monolith that unilaterally feels One Type Of Way, B) mitigate the sense of authority with which you speak about a broad group and their complex cultural history, or even C) ask a single solitary gay person to weigh in on what might be going on there rather than putting words in thousands of mouths. I do not feel that the conversation did any justice to current sentiment or past controversy, and it made for a very frustrating listen.

My favorite podcast of all time!! Informative, funny, topical. Next time you are in Charlotte, get Curry Gate. Love you guys!!!!!

Really tickled my funny bone.

Been listening to this show for a long time and I really enjoy it. The recent Unc episode was an absolute delight. I feel…seen. Well done boys. Keep up the good work.
