23. Fantasy Potential. [Lochin Brouillard.]


Listen Later

Lochin Brouillard is a

Chinese adopted Québécoise who has been Anglicized and who cultivates a love-hate relationship with France. She went from being the goth high school
president to a PhD student in medieval studies who’s interested in monks,
family, and gender. She’s a social nerd, a feminist geek, a close reader with
big ideas, and a consciously kind Slytherin who tries her best to use her
power for good.

Lochin and Michael talk about “world” music, cultural Catholicism,

postmedieval Quebec, gender roles, and racialized identities.

Lochin’s Five Songs.
  • A Different Drum by
  • Peter Gabriel feat. Youssou N’Dour.
  • Il est venu le temps des
  • cathédrales by Bruno
    Pelletier.
  • Montréal -40C by

  • Running Up That Hill

    Show Notes.

    on The Scene Of The Scene. It's a movie about
    Korean-born people adopted by westerners returning to Korea as adults.

    discussing the films Becoming Who I Was
    and The People’s Republic of Desire.
