"Fathers and Sons" (May 3, 2003)

And we're back! Our first regular episode of the new year returns to the first-ever show we discussed: Frasier. It's the episode where David Ogden Stiers plays an old colleague of Frasier's late mother who acts more like Frasier and Niles than Martin does. This is the final time the series put a spotlight on the series innate queerness, and in selecting Stiers, it also tacitly endorses the notion that his M*A*S*H character helped inspire Frasier Crane.

Listen to Unsafe Spaces, Josh Hallmark's new true crime podcast about serial murders in Tampa's gay community — and while you're at it, also give a listen to his other podcast, True Crime Bullshit, about serial killer Israel Keyes.

Want to hear your words on an upcoming GEE? We're covering the Simpsons episode "Lisa the Drama Queen" and therefore we're offering patrons a chance to watch the movie that inspired it: 1994's Heavenly Creatures, which is not easy to watch online nowadays. Details at the GEE Patreon.
