About The Queer Quadrant

Four-quadrant films are movies designed to appeal to the biggest, widest audience possible. In the process, they can often leave out a lot of LGBTQ+ representation – but end up loaded with subtext. In The Queer Quadrant, hosts Brooke Solomon and Jordan Gustafson examine cinema in all its cultural contexts, and explore why your favorite four-quadrant blockbuster is maybe…not as straight as you think it is.

Knives Out

In our last episode of the year, we take things home for a good old-fashioned family fight. Listen along for favorite childhood mystery series, Michael "Big Chicago" Shannon, queering morality, Benoit Blanc as Southern dandy, and the economics of derivatine rights.  Follow us on Twitter [https://twitter.com/QueerQuadrant], Bluesky [https://bsky.app/profile/queerquadrant.bsky.social], and IG [https://www.instagram.com/queerquadrant/]!

Wicked: For Good

Well! We all know Act 2 of Wicked is a tough one! But at least we have EVEN MORE DOOMED yuri. Return to Oz as we discuss new original songs, lack of choreography, lack of sheer horniness, and lack of practical effects. But there is no lack of longing looks and rainbow-tinged wedding allegories. Gelphie forever!

Fried Green Tomatoes with David Canfield

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer and critic David Canfield (The Hollywood Reporter) for a realllll Southern charmer. We discuss the director wanting to stay "out of the bedroom" in this adaptation (whatever that means), how gay you can get without confirming it's gay, food as intimacy, surprise cannibalism, and queer icon Kathy Bates.

Scream (1996) with Phil Tice

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by author & writer Phil Tice for the 1996 classic to rule them all.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
