Finally a cartoon that Jane can get behind! Feel the girl-power this week when we talk about She-Ra and the Princesses of Power!

In this episode we chat about queer coding and the slow inclusion of canonically queer characters in animated media, and the benefits of a diverse, well-rounded ensemble. Jane also tries to work out whether the common cartoon simplifications (exposition and villain motivations) are bugs or features of the format. Also beware the big old spoiler at 18:17:00.
