SBG 127: Luca

Click Image to Access Episode Transcript

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that can (and will) make absolutely any character gay. 

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) talk about why the Disney Pixar hit Luca Should’ve Been Gay. The director has spoken about how they "thought about" making Luca and Alberto gay, but that the story is really just about anyone who's "different."

To that we say, different how? Different in the way that you have to hide your identity for fear that others will think you're a monster? Different in the way that your parents want to send you to deep sea conversion camp? Different in the way that you fall asleep under the stars with your new boyfriend and your parents flip out about him being a "bad influence"?

We chat about how Vespas are the gayest forms of transportation, how your first boyfriend doesn't have to be your last and how if they just said Luca was gay, it's an absolutely beautiful coming out story.

We know one thing for sure, Luca Should’ve Been Gay.
