“After listening to hundreds of episodes and developing a *very* strong and possibly unhealthy parasocial relationship with the hosts, Glen and Drew, I still can’t reliably match their names to their voices. That said, by delving deep into the sitcom archive, they manage to limn the shifting spectrum of American attitudes towards the representability (or not) of LGBT characters. Melding approaches from cultural history and media studies with industry insider insights, they make the case that sitcoms offer windows into the historical worlds of their makers and viewers. I especially appreciate that sometimes you can hear them groping towards ideas that haven’t fully crystallized or revisiting topics after reconsidering their stances. Their knowledgeable special guests bring valuable alternative perspectives. The obscure outros are impeccable. Give it a try - let Glen and Drew lead you to the cool pond of heterosexism in television comedy, and marvel at the pearls they find among the garbage floating within. Also, if they actually read this on the show, happy birthday Abram. I love you.”

“I love listening to Drew and Glen discuss these sitcoms. I would jump at the chance to date either of them or just get a chance to pick their brain or do other things. Their voices are so wonderful to listen to and their insights are really fascinating to ponder. You both do a great job...”Read full review »
