This Feels Bi

Are Raisinets queer?! We've always thought so, and Hannah Einbinder just confirmed it. Yes, bi babes, this week we're tapping into our inner *scream queens* covering Jane Schoenbrun's latest film: TEENAGE SEX AND DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA (2026).

From featuring bi-cons Gillian Anderson and Hannah Einbinder as leads, to an erotic fried chicken in a spooky cabin meet cute, to an equal parts candy / blood-soaked exploration of fantasy & desire, to Little Death's symbolism, Schoenbrun's sapphic fever dream plays with and subverts slasher movie tropes in a deeply queer way.

Join us bi babes, as we revel in the joy of seeing Schoenbrun's dreamy Lynchian vision on the big screen (and that iconic Counting Crows needle drop oner!) And don't forget: "If it gets too real, you can always turn it off." ♥️📽️

Film bros? More like film BI BABES! That's right, we're heading over to the 70mm 🎞️ IMAX cinema today to explore the global box office hit of the summer: Christopher Nolan's THE ODYSSEY. Joined by filmmaker and founder of the Transgender Film Center, Sav Rodgers, we venture on our own queer odyssey of Nolan's film, situating Nolan's interpretation within the context of Homer's original epic. We discuss the movie's enormous cultural impact, the significance of Disney's HERCULES (1997), which Ancient Greek myths Sav would like to reimagine through a queer and trans lens, and which of the goddesses is a bi goth baddie. Come film bro out with us today, bi babes… we come to this pod for magic.✨

Another bombshell has entered the villa...You guessed it, bi babes, we'll be spending this episode in Fiji tackling THE reality TV series of the summer: Love Island USA season 8.

With the help of Evan Lazarus, internet personality and host of Girls Watch Podcast, we'll be unpacking the many layers of queerness underneath the show's ostensibly heteronormative premise: from its bicon host Ariana Madix, to the Zach / Bryce dynamic that set the internet ablaze, Iain Sterling's cheeky roasts, why "lustful" has suddenly become part of the vernacular, and the show producers' claims that bisexuals are "logistically difficult."

Join us for *a chat* and discover the lore behind Erin + Amanda's *connection* to a future Love Bi-land…

NOTE: We will be on SUMMER BREAK starting now and until August 20th. See you soon!

Shell bras, ocean covens, and the inherent duality of having both fish and human parts... yes, bi babes, we are talking MERMAIDS. After all, why do so many folks end up having mermaid phases? What exactly is it about the expansiveness of the sea and the mermaids that inhabit it (we're believers!) that feels so bi?!

With the help of author Jade Song of the award-winning novel Chlorine, we *dive* into the deeply queer origin of mermaids / sirens, going all the way back to the Syrian goddess Atargatis, to more modern pop culture representations, from Disney's interpretation to Aquamarine (2006). We delve into mermaids' inherent duality, the ocean as liminal space, what mermaids mean symbolically to Jade and their writing, and what our mermaid coven 🧜🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️ would look like. Submerge yourselves in this episode bi babes, and soak up the queerness of these mythical sea-dwelling beings!

Pour yourself a ~*negroni sbagliato*~ and get ready to geek out because today we're sailing over to Westeros to immerse ourselves in the *extremely bi* universe that is HBO's HOUSE OF THE DRAGON 🐉

Whether it's the Targaryen love triangles, not-so-subtle bi storylines, or Emma D'Arcy's red carpet looks, the Game of Thrones prequel series is chock-full of queer energy. This *spoiler-filled* episode contains discussion of Seasons 1 and 2, along with the first two episodes of Season 3 (including Larys Strong's glow-up...) Join us for this fiery, nerdy, fantastical, and dare we say— hilarious— journey to the realm of George R.R. Martin. 🔥

Theme nights, phallic paraphernalia, tequila shots, and... suppressed bi awakenings?! That's right, babe, we're talking about bachelorette parties.

While the topic may seem aggressively hetero, we couldn't help but notice a couple things that feel... well, a little bi. Joined by bestie of the pod, NYT bestselling author, and host of the Sounds Like A Cult and Magical Overthinkers podcasts Amanda Montell, we dive into the deeply heteronormative tradition of the bachelorette party and find the sapphic energy hiding underneath it all. We're talking patriarchal origins, the marriage industrial complex's iron grip, and why queer bachelorettes hit different (more whimsy! more camp! fewer penis straws! okay maybe some penis straws!). Two Amandas swap stories from their own recent bachelorette weekends, and Erin surfaces from the trenches with real PTSD from one too many straight bachelorette parties (you've been warned).

Today we're talking about one of THE most chaotically bi films to come out of the past decade… Emma Seligman's feature directorial debut, SHIVA BABY (2020). 💜

Joined by hosts Britney and Ashley of Black Girl Film Club podcast, we unpack the film's bi representation in Rachel Sennott's portrayal of Danielle, the film's approach to sex work, Seligman's use of horror genre elements to craft an existential coming-of-age horror, and Ashley + Britney weigh in with their favorite queer film rec's. Join us, bi babes, as we pull back the many bi layers of SHIVA BABY, including its *six degrees of separation of queerness in the cinematic universe*! 💫

PRESENT TIME! To celebrate the launch of our PATREON (!!), we're giving everyone a *taste* of what you can expect if you subscribe to the After-Party, our members only club. 💞💞 It's our not-so-covertly-named episode, AMANDA GOES TO A STRIP CLUB: a first-person narrative as Amanda and Erin discuss a spicy visit to Casa Diablo, one of Portland's most iconic (and a very queer) strip clubs. Bi babes, we don't hold back in this one… Come along with us for a more *personal* ride!

🖤Episodes like this one will be After Party members-only going forward + regular episodes are back next week!🖤

THE MUMMY (1999)… a cornerstone of bisexual cinema and the bi internet's favorite movie to claim as their own. In this episode we tackle the burning question: what about The Mummy makes it feel SO bi, and why was it so many bi folks' queer awakening? Is it the gorgeous Rachel Weisz and her slutty little librarian glasses, is it Brendan Fraser's pretty boy appeal (those eyes!), is it the erotic sepia tones of the film, or is it the backdrop of a fantasy adventure epic? Join us, bi babes, as we excavate this film's queer coding and its firm standing in the bi cinematic canon in anticipation of a (hopefully more overtly queer) NEW Mummy film (Mummy 4) in the works…🎬

Dust off your daisy dukes and ripped tees, and get ready for a tequila-soaked honky tonk good time at our favorite bra bar… COYOTE UGLY. 🔥

Joined by lesbian performer and ASL interpreter Caroline Blaike of the iconic LA institution Jumbo's Clown Room, we cover everything from the legacy of the original New York saloon to the Hollywood movie it inspired, based on author Elizabeth Gilbert's GQ article. Caroline shares her personal relationship to the film and the Coyote Ugly-themed dance events she's organized as we uncover what about a female-owned and operated bra bar feels so inherently queer (Maria Bello as "Lil," for starters). Amanda shares a *bi awakening* she experienced at the Coyote Ugly in Austin, and Caroline ideates her dream sapphic nightlife spot: "Mob Wife." 💅

We're kicking off Pride with one of our HOTTEST episodes yet, bi babes 😘
