Our hosts Chris and Amy spend one hundred minutes gushing over Alice Oseman's wonderful series, Heartstopper. No topic is off the table as they dive into all the details that make Heartstopper the queer story they wish they had growing up. Learn more about your hosts as they open up about how a story like Heartstopper leaves its lasting impact on them. Both Amy and Chris see themselves in one of the two main characters, but if you want to find out which, you're going to have to listen!
A special thank you to the author, Alice Oseman, for their brilliant work in bringing this important and magical story to the page, as well as the big (tv) screen. Their influence on queer pop culture and their amplification of queer stories centered around positivity and acceptance are both something Chris and Amy appreciate immensely.
Thank you to Kevin MacLeod for the use of our theme song, 'Werq.' You can find more of their music on https://www.incompetech.com/.
