This week on Rainbow Rewatch is a SUPER delicious episode because Daniel and Leliana are chatting about arguably the most iconic movie of the 2000s, the queer cult classic Mean Girls!!! We are joined by very special guest Braunwyn Windham-Burke (Real Housewives of Orange County, Amplified Voices, all around legend), who made headlines earlier this year as the first openly queer real housewife in the entire franchise! After discussing their personal relationship to this film, Daniel and Leliana talk to Braunwyn about her journey of self-exploration that led to her coming out, problematic reactions from the fandom, sobriety, and her experience as the mother of queer children. Then, they break down everrrrrything queer about this amazingly gay film including whether Damian is good queer representation, Janis' lesbophobia, and the movie's lasting impact on queer culture.
And if you take away anything from this episode, let it be this: "And on the third day, God created the Remington bolt-action rifle, so that man could fight the dinosaurs. And the homosexuals. Amen."
Please be sure to leave us a review on apple podcasts. If you have any good movie or tv show recommendations, please let us know in the review and we will DEFINITELY reexamine it on the pod!
