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.

episode Capote with Fran Hoepfner artwork

Capote with Fran Hoepfner

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined for the fifth (!!!!) time by the wonderful Fran Hoepfner (Vulture) for Bennett Miller's impressive 2005 debut. We talk the Hoffman Oscar (deserved), the oh-so-twisted world of true crime and Capote's place in it, and balancing the eerie and the sensationalist. And social media algorithms. And Charlie Kaufman. And "Is This Thing On." And ABC's Lost.

episode Morocco with Morgan M Page artwork

Morocco with Morgan M Page

Jordan and Brooke are rejoined by writer, historian, and filmmaker Morgan M Page for this iconic Josef von Sternberg flick from 1930, which introduced bisexual icon Marlene Dietrich to Hollywood audiences. We discuss the infamous "sewing circle" of sapphic starlets popularized by Dietrich, a multitude of affairs, one era-defining on-screen lesbian kiss, lethal top energy, running into the desert for love, and, of course, Jojo Siwa.

episode The 2025 QQ Qualifiers artwork

The 2025 QQ Qualifiers

It's the fourth annual QQ Qualifier Awards – aka the Quallies! In advance of the Oscars, Jordan and Brooke award the coveted "Rainbow Prism" to their favorite performances/movies of the 2025 cinematic year, along with a healthy dose of subjective criticism, Brooke slacking on viewing stats, and Jordan's "chaos picks" for new awards.

episode Aladdin with Bobbi Miller artwork

Aladdin with Bobbi Miller

Jordan and Brooke travel with culture critic and writer Bobbi Miller (Culture Kitsch) to the mystical and problematic land of Agrabah (aka Brooke's homeland). We discuss the Aladdin soundtrack, place Jafar on our gay villains ranking, get deep on Disney politicking, and try out our best Robin Williams impressions.

episode Hamilton with Alison Sivitz artwork

Hamilton with Alison Sivitz

Lib out with us and Alison Sivitz (the ever iconic Bald Ann Dowd) as we discuss Obama-era hopecore, being obsessed with your generational hater, actual historic love letters between Hamilton and his pal Laurens, and if we were too mean online to Lin-Manual Miranda. Also, Brooke scars everyone with her knowledge of the Hamilton fandom.

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.
