  • Pause for the Pandemic
    This week we're taking a little break from talking about queer media, pausing for the pandemic, to discuss where we're at in terms of the podcast and the pandemic. 
    As you may have noticed we have moved from weekly release to biweekly release of episodes which we explain during the episode. 
    And how the GREAT PAUSE mentality has kind of passed, now that we're a year into the pandemic. As well as a little impromptu pep talk from us and a small discussion about the impact of COVID19 on mental health.
    Be sure to give us a follow on Twitter and Instagram @DLDTPodcast for all our updates!!
    NOTE: Becca's laptop was overheating, we apologise for that background sound. We're working on fixing this issue for future episode.

  • Lavender Girls: Coming Out (Bonus Episode!)
    Welcome to our first bonus episode. Lavender Girls: Coming Out was created by our friends Monica Mills and Joana Borges. Monica has devised a creative interpretation of lesbian cinema, focussing on sapphic presenting films in the 21st century and painted abstract artwork of monumental coming out moments within lesbian cinema - however that may come about. Each piece has a specific time-stamp to go alongside it and sets out to convey the importance of lesbian representation for the LGBTQIA+ community. Monica also takes us along her journey of realising and understanding her sexuality and how that was aided by media representation.
    We’d like to thank Monica and Joana for allowing us to partake in this project! We cannot wait to welcome them to DLDT Podcast in the future. You can watch Monica and Joana’s new documentary Lavender Girls: Coming Out from today (April 5th!) by going over to @monica_mills and @mojo_stickers over on Instagram or via their a twitter account which is @LAVENDERGIRLS3 where you can also find the Vimeo link to take you to the full documentary.

  • Bierasure ft Tal
    Exciting news - we have our first guest! Neither Molly or Becca felt qualified to talk on the subject of Bierasure in the media and in society as a whole given that neither of us identify as Bisexual. Therefore, we thought what better way to introduce our first guest into the podcast than to have a Bisexual speaker give their thoughts and share personal experiences that they’ve endured in terms of Bierasure in order to highlight the common blindspots when it comes to our everyday language and how it isn’t inclusive enough and to give examples of good and bad Bisexual representation and ways they think the media, society and the LGBTQ+ community can become a more accepting place for Bisexuals.

  • We are Generation Q

    To follow up from last week’s episode we’re discussing the reboot of The L Word; The L Word: Generation Q.

    Watching the OG show in comparison to the reboot is an amazing indicator of the changing times surrounding the views of sexuality, gender and even the development of technology as a whole.

    We revisit Becca’s original predictions from the previous episode (so be sure to check that out.) We discuss the storylines we loved and the storylines we didn’t, the plot holes, our favourite of the new characters, our hopes and predictions for season 2. And wonder what links they will make back to the OG series this upcoming season.

    We chat about the chances of Danette (Dani and Bette) becoming canon or whether Gigi and Dani should get together.

    Who Sophie will go to at the airport?

    Angie and Jordi’s young love.

    Why Tina would have left to find herself yet be engaged to someone else less than a year later… Imagine waiting 10 years to find out your endgame ship are no longer together. So, of course, we couldn’t ignore TiBette and their current storyline.

    NOTE: we have decided to move to biweekly release of the podcast in order to continue to provide a high standard podcast for you. Though we say at the end of this episode join us next week, the next episode will be released April 1st 2021.

  • The L Word: It's Kind of Like Marmite
    This week we’re discussing The L Word created by Ilene Chaiken. Most people will have watched The L Word at some point in their life. It follows a group of wlw living in LA, while their talking, laughing, loving, breathing, fighting, fucking, crying, drinking, riding, winning, losing, cheating, kissing, thinking, dreaming because this is the way that they live.
    We discuss the difference in views between 2004-09 and now, this show is sadly riddled with biphobia and transphobia, and with the reboot we have high hopes they will fix their wrongs. It’s strange to see straight people be the minority, but we have seen no other show like it.
    *SPOILER ALERT* We discuss the main storylines of each season and our favourite episode/season. As well as our favourite characters of them all. From season 5 supremacy to the disaster that is season 3.
    At this point Becca hadn’t watched the Gen Q reboot, so she makes her predictions of where she thinks everyone will be in 10 years’ time.

  • Loving Annabelle
    CONTENT WARNING: Loving Annabelle has mentions of suicide and self-harm so we touch on this briefly. In this episode, we’re talking all things Catholic school! The 2006 film, Loving Annabelle, directed by Katherine Brooks and starring Erin Kelly and the late Diane Gaidry, explores areas such as teenage rebellion, sexuality, mental health and a forbidden relationship between an English teacher and her new student. Annabelle Tillman arrives at the school as a last resort after being expelled from her two previous ones, she’s set out to cause chaos from the very beginning and isn’t phased by repercussions she may face by disobeying the rules. Miss Simone Bradley is Annabelle’s English teacher, she’s astute, reserved and has quite the dark past which we find out later on in the film. Whilst we both like this film, it’s important to note the problematic aspects in regards to a teacher student relationship and both of us give our thoughts on how our perception changed from watching Loving Annabelle for the first time around the age of 14 in comparison to how we see it now as young adults.

  • Becca’s Queer Experience Growing Up Religious:
    Let’s get a little uneducated. Becca grew up Protestant, Molly grew up secular and has a few questions about what the queer experience has been like for Becca and what challenges she’s faced growing up in the church. Becca’s beliefs have been challenged a drastic amount since coming to terms with their sexuality and in this episode, we discuss the different experiences we have had over the years and how that draws back to our religious influence or lack thereof.

  • A Secret Love

    In this week's episode we’re discussing the Netflix documentary A Secret Love (2020) directed by Chris Bolan.

    This documentary follows Pat Henschel and Terry Donahue, giving us insight to their lives from how they met in 1947 to their careers to now moving into assisted living. They were together for over 65 years before telling anyone. it is a love story  totalling 72 years. 

    It's a remarkable story having been a secret for such a long time and now the entire world has the potential to know.

  • Taking it One Day at a Time

    This week we discuss One Day at a Time, season 1-4.

    It’s a series on Netflix and PopTV that follows the Alverez’s; a Cuban-American family, as they navigate their daily life and the problems that get thrown their way.

    The show is admirable as it tackles issues such as PTSD, depression, rape culture, queer issues, consent, addiction and many other taboo topics that other shows shy away from. It was significant to both our lives as it was the first time we has seen a queer character of similar ages to us.

    As Becca said this show makes people feel seen, it makes people feel heard. There’s a character for everyone, there’s a relationship that reminds everyone of a relationship in their own life. It's really personal and realistic which makes for an amazing watch, if you need a laugh... or a cry. For differing reasons we both connected to Elena through being gay and standing up for what she believes in, as well as the relationship with her parents, perhaps, the most hard hitting of the show.  

    We discuss family taking time to become comfortable with coming out. After all, in the words of Lydia, who are we to judge? Who are we to against the Pope and God? as well as the human nature of focussing on the negatives, focussing on who doesn't accept us rather than who does. And keeping the memory of loved ones alive, through the character of Lydia's late husband, Berto.
