We Watch Imagine Me & You! (QR Bonus 004)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/11/16

This week we've got something special. Something very, very 2005. It's a commentary track for Imagine Me & You! A lot of people love this movie, but it's also kind of strange. It's a cheating story about a woman who is tempted to leave her husband for a florist who only has one pair of pants. And people are all right with the cheating? (Which we all know is the ultimate lesfic no-no.) It's weird. And did we mention it's also very, very 2005? A Dance Dance Revolution machine even appears at a pivotal

We Watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show! (QR Bonus 003)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/10/26

It's a spooky month, so Tara and Kris are celebrating with a new film commentary! What to do when your hosts don't like horror movies? Snark about The Rocky Horror Picture Show, of course. (Also, Kris was in P-Town when they needed to record the next episode, so it worked out.) Kris and Tara dive into this important, unabashedly queer, classic that might... not be good? Kris discusses losing her Rocky Horror virginity at whatever age she says she is. Tara talks about the patriarchy and her father's

Kris’s Socially Awkward Moment (QR 022)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/10/12

There’s nothing clever to say about twenty-two. It’s even, divisible by eleven. It’s...just there really. By contrast, this episode has substance. Kris and Tara are talking about movies they’d like to see and actors...they have no idea about actors. Kris discusses her P-Town plans and prepares herself for some post-Covid socializing ugly crying. Tara joins in with her thoughts about Everybody’s Talking About Jamie. Oh, and Kris reveals a hilarious and stunningly socially awkward moment. It’s *chef

Romance Womance (QR021)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/09/28

Happy 21st! The only thing this podcast can’t do is become president...yet. Kris and Tara cover a lot of ground in this episode. Kris reveals she has a List of Pure Voices after Tara recounts her surprise at hearing Liza Minelli sing during a YouTube rabbit hole sesh. Our hosts give their two cents about their favourite FFBs (Funny Fucking Books). And then there's some disagreement about whether or not Dickinson is for them. Lots of recs today, with the big ones coming in strong. This week Kris

Kris-sandra (QR020)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/09/14

Kris is the Cassandra of recommendations. How did we not realize this before? She lays down winners, and Tara? She will not budge. Listen to Kris, Tara! Everybody! Unless you can’t. Because, you know, Cassandra. What were we talking about again? This episode goes some places. For official recommendations Kris brings 2020 film Joe Bell to the table. It’s an important but difficult movie that deals with the painful reality that many queer youth go through every day. To balance it out, Tara brings the

How Are We Friends? (QR019)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/08/31

19. 19 is about getting cocky. It’s about feeling yourself. And what’s more 19 than starting a podcast episode with a round of Fuck, Marry, Kill using the cast of The L Word and expecting you’ll be friends by the end? Kris answers the question of whether she’d write anything outside of lesbian romance. Tara brings the latest game phenom Boyfriend Dungeon to the table to discuss how the rules are different for queer creators. Also, Kris tells the story of how she has tiger blood (or something)

The Windsor Ballet (QR018)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/08/17

In her twenties, Tara learned in the eulogy of a famous Detroit news anchor that he had an enduring fondness for the "Windsor Ballet." And today is your lucky day, because you’re going to learn about this Canadian cultural institution. You’ve heard about the Calgary Stampede. Now it’s time to go to the ballet. Never let it be said we don’t go places on this podcast. The official recommendations this week are proper bangers. Kris gives a rousing endorsement of the 2020 film Cowboys, about a trans boy

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/08/10

Kris and Tara had a dispute about Gunpowder Milkshake. Words were said. And now they're watching 2018's Ocean's Eight and delivering a bonus episode commentary track. We start right at 0:00 and go to the end. It's a bit of an experiment. Some chemical courage. Let us know what you think and if you're interested in seeing more. If you enjoy this episode, please consider buying Kris & Tara a Ko-fi!

Not Our First Rodeo (QR017)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/08/03

The episode you’re about to hear was recorded on July 26, 2021. This is important because that day is… a Monday. Normally Kris and Tara record on Sunday evenings, after a long, restful weekend. Monday recordings are different. They’re punchy. They’re silly. They’re… well they’re a bit much, really. You have been warned. With that out of the way, it’s a pretty full episode. Tara shares her experiences with the Calgary Stampede, AKA the totally safe and not a super spreader event that’s been going on

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/07/20

It’s Queerly Recommended’s Sweet Sixteen and we have one question for you: Are you down with the witchy witchy? While you ponder that, listen to Kris and Tara dish about the latest Marvel offerings, tags for fiction, and the romantic utility of the humble tentacle. They revisit last week’s conversation about trans women in lesfic with a terrific list of books that are just waiting for you to dive into. Last but not least, Kris utters a phrase that Tara has Never Heard An Author Say Before. Enjoy

How Do You Take Your Cicada? (QR014)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/06/22

It's episode 14! Kris's favourite number 14! We made it, friends! This week, Kris regales us with stories of P-Town and Tara stirs the pot by asking which is gayer: P-Town or Palm Springs, and talking about an article with the best way to cook a cicada. It's a strange adolescence we're having. You know, trying new things, new experiences...but cicadas? For official recommendations, Kris brings us Life in Death by M.

She Was Raised Wrong (QR 013)

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/06/08

Welcome back loyal listeners! Queerly Recommended is now a teenager and we're feeling all kinds of things. Kris and Tara start off with an extremely strong stance on annuals vs. perennials and it just...goes from there. And that recent Autostraddle quiz about which job you'd have in a lesbian romance? Well, they answer it on the air, for... science? For official recommendations this week, Kris and Tara are both back with media they were just getting into last time: Tara comes in with Satisfaction

2021/05/25

It's episode 12! Queerly Recommended is officially old enough for vaccines and to celebrate, Kris and Tara share the origin stories of the podcast and a certain nom de guerre. Then, things turn to the professional as Amanda Radley mails in with an answer to that Audible question from the last episode. Kris (or, rather, Brit Ryder) pimps her new book Not Guilty and discusses the novella that launched it, Shameless. Eventually, Tara and Kris remember to share their recommendations and this week it's a

The vaccination rate of the podcast continues to improve as Tara discovers the sole benefit of being in her 40s. Kris, forever young, welcomes her with grace and aplomb.

This is what happens when you record on a Monday. Hello, friends! Things get a bit punchy this week on Queerly Recommended. Kris and Tara start off by recommending…vaccines!

Queerly Recommended ·

2021/04/06

Did we stutter? No! This week, Tara and Kris are joined by lesfic luminary Georgia Beers. Together, they talk about Georgia’s recommendations for queer media, what she wants to see more of and how sites like Does the Dog Die help viewers navigate the painful tropes associated with queer media.

You’ve met Thirsty Kris, but could we interest you in meeting…Baby Tara? This week, our fearless hosts reach that point in every podcaster’s life where you Google and read things up on sites while you’re recording. Don’t worry, they’re not looking for recommendations. They’re full to brimming with them. Tara discusses the video game Children of Morta before standing behind her queer recommendation for the week, Nottingham but Anna Burke.
