Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is going down the witch’s road. 

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with creator Lauren aka PoppyLaur (@hi.poppylaur) to talk about the gay masterpiece that is Agatha All Along. Never could we have anticipated such a queer show to have come out of Marvel and Disney+ and we need to talk about it. 

When WandaVision first came to an end in 2021, Lauren asked the universe for more Agatha Harkness. In 2024, the universe delivered in a big way with the gayest Marvel show of all time. Although the show was expected to flop (and was predictably review-bombed by angry straight men), Agatha All Along surprised everyone by becoming an instant hit. We’re not sure how anything with such a powerhouse cast of milfs could ever flop; but in the agist world of Hollywood, it’s honestly amazing that this show even got greenlit. 

We talk with Lauren about the Winnifred Sanderson to Agatha Harkness pipeline, the overwhelming amount of similarities between Agatha and Regina Mills, and how wonderfully refreshing it is to have a show that centers around queer women over the age of 23 for once. We also talk about the enemies to lovers of it all, our shared love of Patti LuPone, and our dreams for a Season 2 where we’d finally get to see how Agatha and Rio first got together. 

Lauren and her girlfriend Alyssa are hard at work filming their sapphic vampire/human enemies to lovers web series, Pain in the Neck. The show is fully funded thanks to a successful Kickstarter and all episodes will be released on Youtube. Follow along @painintheneckshow for all the details!
