Making Austen Queer with Leigh Douglas

Jane Austen, but make it GAY. We're joined today by Leigh Douglas (@leighdouglascomedy) to discuss which Austen characters are most queer (including Jane herself), why her works draw a queer audience, and a queer fan casting of Pride and Prejudice.

Glossary of People, Places, and Things: Show Me Eternity, Wild Nights with Emily (adapted into a 2018 film), But I'm a Cheerleader, Renee Rapp, The Terrell Show
