Queer Alien Blast

This week's episode is longer and more critical than usual, because we ultimately felt that it was important for us to make our voices heard, while also acknowledging and trying to be respectful of other people’s work, opinions, and feelings. If you are someone who liked the episode, you might want to skip this one.

That being said, we also had positive things to say, especially about Isobel, Kyle, and Echo.
