Stick The Fork In The Falafel

Queer Longing

Oh hiya! Hope you're ready for a bumber load of recs this week because truly, honestly, what else is there to do but watch telly, read books and listen to stuff! We've got pod recommendations coming out our ears this week! From Sofie Hagen dissecting true crime in 'Bad People', to exploring sex and relationships with Nicole Byers on 'Why Won't You Date Me?'. Plus, gorgeous food writer and gay dad Yotam Ottolenghi talks about growing up in Jerusalem and finding solace in food during lockdown on 'How I Found My Voice'. Our reading tallies have been totting up so we bring you a round up of the best queer related books we've consumed from dystopian 'Blue Ticket', to the source of five star lesbian film 'Carol', Patricia Highsmith's 'The Price of Salt', and exploring identity and survival during the gold rush in 'How Much of These Hills is Gold'. We also dive into the special Euphoria episode centring around Jules, discuss the disappointing disparity in newspaper depictions of straight vs. gay sex and talk social media clapbacks from huns JoJo Siwa and Trixie Mattel.
