Listen here queers, you are going to want to get Girls Can Kiss Now ASAP if you haven't already. In the book, you get to read amazing essays like "Memeing with the FBI," "One Day, You'll All Be Gay," Supercut of Lesbian Yearning," and "Step On Me, Julianne Moore." These essays are not only laugh-out-loud funny but demonstrate the importance of queer representation and how far we've come since the 90s and early 2000s. From stalking paparazzi photos for some hint of queerness then to now holding books and watching tv shows and movies full of queer characters and stories. In this episode, we talk about Taylor Swift, masturbation, and other queer millennial experiences. Jill is a delight and we can't wait for everyone to read her book and love it as much as we did!

Welcome to today's chaotic, hysterical episode with our friend Cait! We talk gender fluidity, cult adjacent discussions (is bookstagram a cult by Cultish standards?), penis shapes, tucking, a random question from Sam on if we wash our legs/feet or not, and embarrassing period stories. Sam asks us some spicy and relationship-centered questions, and we discuss books and sex education. As one of us says, "this episode is weird" and it really is, in the best possible way! We always enjoy having Cait on and all of the conversations we have together!

We have Alison Cochrun, the other of The Charm Offensive, back on the podcast with our bookstagram friend Katie to talk about The Bachelor Franchise, dating shows, queering dating shows, and more. We ask both of them hard-hitting questions about The Bachelor franchise: favorite contestant, favorite lead, one thing you would change, would you want to be a villain or go all the way, and and what the shows would look like if they were more queer friendly and inclusive. Bonus rapid fire round to see what everyone would do if they were on the show - dress or suit? Contestant or main person? Go out on night one or stay around longer? Even if you're not a super fan of The Bachelor franchise, there's something in this episode for everyone (And Alex does a great job asking questions because she has almost no Bachelor knowledge).
You can find Alison on Instagram and Twitter at @alisoncochrun and at her website https://www.alisoncochrun.com/
