Jess welcomes TWO of the stars of the groundbreaking Showtime series Queer as Folk: Peter Paige & Scott Lowell (aka: Emmett Honeycutt & Ted Schmidt)!! Peter and Scott chat about their auditions, the Brian Kinney/Gale Harold enigma, lack of diversity on the show, how Pose’s Billy Porter was up for the role of Emmett and how Peter Paige was up for the role of Jack on Will & Grace. Plus, the infamous Larry King interview where they were grilled on their sexuality, how QAF changed the way sex & sexuality was depicted on cable, why The L Word was able to break into the mainstream zeitgeist in a way QAF was unable to, and a lot more!
