Two Old Queens is a comedy movie review podcast hosted by two (younger Gen X?) gay movie buffs, each with wildly different tastes, in search of the Gayest Movie Ever. They're judging this based on sincere categories (like Positive Representation of Homosexuality, Gay Characters Played by Gay Actors, Actual Gay Characters, How Likely Are You To Recommend This Movie to a Gay Person, etc) and silly categories (like Wigs, Titular Theme Song, Drag Inspiration, Themes of Mothers, etc), rated based on the whims of whoever is present for that episode. Most movies score very poorly because it's a homophobic world, but roasting them is fun.
I've been listening to the old free episodes lately, and they are a fucking delight. I could see it inspiring someone to make a similar silly rating system for how communist a movie is. Maybe that person is you!
