In this episode, Michael D. Barbezat (Australian Catholic University) and Miles Pattenden (Oxford University) explore the "queer medievalism" of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence in the early 1980s. They discuss the Sisters' creation of "gay relics" in San Francisco, USA and Sydney, Australia, highlighting how the Sisters drew on the intellectual traditions of medieval Christianity to repurpose remnants of destroyed urban spaces as holy relics.
