Straights in gay bars discourse, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo obsession era, Taylor Jenkins Reid owns us af

Welcome to season 2 of The Lavender Menace!We kicked off the second season of the podcast on Instagram live (@renaissancemarie @sunnywithacamera)! Starting off with hot takes as usual, a listener named Robin submitted a wonderful email about their straight sister going to gay bars but also being homophobic...? And we talk about how irritating it is to have people encroach on spaces not for them. Also Renaissance is currently grappling with a The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid hyperfixation so we discuss that at length, particularly in relation to our ongoing Taylor Swift obsession. Sunny recently also read and recommends Taylor Jenkins Reid's most recent book Malibu Rising and talks about the crossovers within these books. Along with the novel Malibu Rising, Sunny also recommends the sapphic fantasy A Curse of Roses by Diana Pinguicha to Renaissance, and Renaissance recommends the lesbian rom-com Imagine Me and You (2005). Follow us on Twitter @thelavenderpod for updates and email us your hot take submission to be featured on the pod at thelavendermenacepodcast@gmail.com!We are launching a Patreon with exclusive content and patron input on content we consume and discuss for the podcast soon as well, so keep your eyes peeled for that! :)

Om Podcasten

Two overly online nonbinary lesbian communists of color (with gaylor tendencies) spew their opinions on pop culture and media via a three part comedy variety show: first, a discussion of a listener submitted hot take. Second, analyzing a piece of media we've both consumed together. And third, recommending books/movies/TV/music/etc. to each other. Renaissance is the film stan twitter user, and Sunny is the booktuber. We think we are hilarious and have the correct opinions, and we hope you can agree! Email us at thelavendermenacepodcast@gmail.com for your hot take submissions or business stuff. Follow us on Twitter @TheLavenderPod for live updates of our unhinged ramblings and @thelavendermenacepod on Instagram and Tik Tok for more of our short form content in between episodes. We also have a Letterboxd @thelavenderpod, if you're into that sort of thing. (Of course you are- we're all gay nerds here!!) You can support us at patreon.com/thelavendermenace for bonus episodes, early access, exclusive content, and merch, but we truly appreciate all of our listeners and love engaging with y'all on any level. Much lesbian love and solidarity!
