Episode 26
Trigger warning: this episode includes graphic descriptions of Br*tish cuisine. We understand if you need to skip this episode to protect your mental health. We hope you will join us again next week. 
It’s the second movie in our “zom-com” double-feature! Join your Q&L hosts as they discuss Shaun of the Dead, the movie that brought Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg across the pond and into the American zeitgeist. 
This week, Brett, Mel, and Samantha will discuss who is and isn’t allowed to say the c-word, the n-word, and even the zed-word. They dive into the minutia of Br*tish and zombie etiquette, from hiding bites to hiding feelings, and they finally tackle the age old question: “fellas, is it gay to date your girlfriend?”

Episode 25
It’s a zombie double feature! This week, the Q&L hosts tackle the first of their zombie movies with the directorial debut of Zelda Williams, daughter of beloved actor Robin Williams. Lisa Frankenstein (2024) has arrived on streaming, so it felt like a perfect time to check out this ambitious and divisive flop.
Which one(s) of your beloved hosts loved this movie and which one(s) hated it? Do your Q&L hosts have ideas on how to fix this movie’s problems (spoiler: they have many)? Has Samantha finally seen Jennifer’s Body? Can they grapple with the stank? Is pee stored in the balls? Listen to find out!

Episode 24
There’s been a coup! Samantha grabs the reins this week to lead the discussion for an especially traumatizing movie from her past. Saddle up with your Q&L hosts as they gallop into a discussion of the 2002 phenomenon “The Ring,” which is THE film our brave Samantha was most scared to cover going into this podcast. 
Tune in to find out: does she still feel unbridled terror thinking about this American remake? Did it buck her expectations? Is she chomping at the bit to say her piece? If you want to find out the answers to these questions, race to your nearest podcast app!

Episode 23Nope, not the new one. We are talking about the classic 1988 film “Beetlejuice” (singular) this time. 
On a Beetlejuice Beetlejuice high and thirsting for more? Want to take a trip down nostalgia lane? Just want to hang out with your most (occasionally) correct podcast hosts? If so, join us for this deep dive into Tim Burton films, canceled actors, autumnal blessings, and attempts at script doctoring.
How many times can our lovable Q&L hosts say P******** in a single episode? Which of the three hosts loved this movie enough to actually see the sequel? Which host has a Tim Burton inspired tattoo? Which host is a devious gay like Otho? You can probably just guess those answers, but tune in anyway to find out for sure!

Episode 21
It only took 38 years, but the Alien franchise is BACK, baybeee! 
Join our hosts for this existential episode of Q&L, where Mel rants about haters, Brett practices AVP erasure, and Samantha unlocks the next level of her horror fan status: night terrors! 
So many dynamic questions will be posed during this episode. Like, how many video games can Mel possibly bring up? Fellas, are sequels gay? How much does Brett love CGI dead actors? Will this movie introduce more lore no one wants? Will Samantha be okay? 
We promise to answer maybe some of those!

Episode 20 School is back in session! We are closing out the summer with The Faculty, the edgy 1998 The Thing rip-off from Robert Rodriguez.  After traumatizing Samantha with a bunch of really intense and scary movies, we decided to give her a little reprieve and just have a ton of fun with everybody’s favorite 2cool4school star-studded scifi teen horror romp. Disclaimer: none of us were in high school in 1998, so maybe it was just like that back then.  Please rate and review our podcast!  Follow us on Instagram @QueerAndLoathingPod Email us at [email protected]

Episode 19 Cats can have a little noise as a treat. In this episode of Q&L, your favorite hosts discuss the latest film in the “sensory-sensitive aliens” subgenre: A Quiet Place 3 (or whatever it’s called). Brett, Mel, and Samantha will talk all things Quiet Place: pizza, cats, sound aliens, and… 9/11?  Exciting points of discussion may include: “Who can pronounce Djimon Hounsou without sounding like an idiot?” “Does anyone actually remember the second movie?” “Why doesn’t that guy take off his tie?” “Why that cat like that?” “Does Mel have amnesia?” And so much more!

Episode 18 Who doesn’t love a murder cult? This week, Q&L hosts Mel, Brett, and Samantha explore the thematically rich and beautifully crafted 2019 instant classic Midsommar. Which host would not be allowed to join the Harga? Which host would die immediately from sun exposure? Which host will play Midsommar music on a kazoo to avoid copyright claims? You’ll have to tune in to find out! The answers to these exciting questions may surprise you (but probably not).  Break yourself down and open yourself to the influence! Skål!

Episode 17 It’s “the scariest movie since Silence of the Lambs”* Pack up your longlegs and your most beautifully-crafted ceramic doll and join your Q&L hosts as they talk about the newest spoopy Satanic movie from Osgood Perkins: LONGLEGS! Brett, Mel, and Samantha saw the most marketed niche movie for weirdos of the year. Listen as they discuss how atmosphere impacts how we experience fear, political discourse about being biracial, the manufactured anxiety surrounding horror movies you haven’t seen yet, and, of course, edging. *it’s not Please rate and review our podcast!  Follow us on Instagram @QueerAndLoathingPod Email us at [email protected]
