54 episoderIn between fan-girling over Sailor Moon, Paul talks about the recent update, Sailor Moon Crystal, and the inclusion of a non-binary character, and two homosexual relationships. They also veer into the world of Japanese Role Playing Games, and the fetishisation of lesbianism and the female form in some Japanese anime and games. Finally, they share their love of life simulator and farming games, especially Story of Seasons where they each got the chance for their male characters to marry another boy.

We review It's A Sin, written and created by Russel T Davies. We talk about how the show could be perceived as perpetuating old fears about HIV without balancing it with up to date facts, how it depicts real situations that gay people of that era had to face, and the importance of sexual education for teenagers of all sexualities.

Time for a fun story about getting our new Jack Russell Terrier, Zack! We talk about how Coronavirus helped us save enough money to buy him, how Matt chose him name by staring into his eyes, why we feel guilty for not adopting a dog instead (but also why it totally wasn't out fault), and how weird Zack is (making him a perfect member of the family).

We talk about the recent, but really not that recent, controversy around Dave Chappelle's new Netflix special, The Closer, particularly as it pertains to being anti-trans, pro-TERF, and homophobic. We explore the nature of cancel culture, what might be the best way to meter out the justice, and make comparisons between Dave Chappelle and J.K. Rowling about why one might be easier to cancel than the other. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for privacy and opt-out information.
In what has to be our boldest discussion yet, we tackle the misinformation being spread about trans people, gay marriage, abortion, and COVID vaccines, and take a run at the Australian Christian Lobby and pointing out their hypocrisy. As always, we throw in random pop culture references to Parks and Recreation and Malcolm Gladwell, just to keep it light, but it's mostly political, so hold onto your bipartisan party hats, because it's a political episode, people.
