Lez Be Reel
Welcome to Lez Be Reel, a podcast where two slightly older lesbians share their opinions about new and classic LGBTQ+ tv shows and movies.
In each episode, we’ll chat about a different LGBTQ+ tv show or film and discuss why we loved it or why we didn’t, but always from the lens of two folx who understand the creative process behind telling a story. We’ll also talk about the impact of the on-screen topics on our community, then and now.
At the end of each episode, we'll decide if we wanna put the movie or tv show in the U-haul or keep it on the curb!
This is Lez Be Reel.
