XenoChat is back with a very important topic: Queer Theory! What is Queer Theory? Meriam-Webster defines it as "an approach to literary and cultural study that rejects traditional categories of gender and sexuality." Join Justin, Tyler, Kat and Robin as they apply this approach to Xenogears, Xenosaga, and the Xenoblade series!

Note: We at XenoChat are not professionals on Queer Theory. Some members of the cast only represent a small portion of the LGBTQ+ community. You may not agree with our readings, but we encourage you to look into Queer Theory and share your opinions with us!

Thanks for the idea for this episode goes to Kristy from our Shion episode! You can find her and her partner's podcast, the Ebony Ditch, on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3kYwswxskEEBvby7wkfTBv?si=qwW_AiXvTAmZWyb-NMrXhg
