In this episode of Gay 2K, we’re diving deep under the sea—and deep into our feelings. Joining the show is a very special guest: my high school friend, Karma LiLola. Together, we revisit the 1989 Disney classic The Little Mermaid, but we aren’t just talking about catchy tunes and crustacean sidekicks.We’re exploring Ariel’s journey through a lens that many queer and trans folks have felt for decades, even before we had the words for it. From the longing for a world where you truly belong to the literal transformation of the body to match the spirit, we break down why this film remains a transformative piece of art for queer youth.

In this nostalgic episode, co-hosts Sarah and John-Paul take a deep dive into the 2005 film adaptation of the iconic Broadway musical, Rent. For many young LGBTQ+ people in the early 2000s, the film—and the musical it was based on—served as a crucial, mainstream touchstone, depicting queer relationships, chosen family, and the ongoing shadow of the AIDS epidemic.

Happy December, Gay2k-ers! This week, Sarah and Alex are getting cozy with the 2005 holiday classic, The Family Stone(2005). We're celebrating cinema icon Diane Keaton, talking all things SJP, and dissecting the drama of messy family dynamics. Most importantly, we're giving the love and analysis they deserve to Thad and Patrick —the quietly radical queer couple at the heart of the Stone family chaos. Grab your snow shovel we're about to Scoop up this holiday classic
