Happy Holly Gays! As a special gift, we are throwing it back all the way to our very first season! Whether you're a long time listener or new to the show, we hope you will enjoy taking a little trip back through time to the early days of Lez Hang Out. This is the episode that started it all. That's right, this is the episode that features our very first ever original song written by Leigh Holmes Foster! If you've been enjoying all our original songs for our Lez-ssential episodes and our musical The Flame, you will not want to miss the song that started it all, a Carol spoof of My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music. In case it still isn't obvious, this week Leigh and Ellie dive into Carol for this Lez-ssentials episode, a recurring segment on the essential movies and TV shows in the lesbian canon. They're here, they're queer and full of Christmas cheer! They have quite a bit to say about the fate of Carol (Cate Blanchett), Therese (Rooney Mara) and the true star of the movie Abby (Sarah Paulson). Lez-ssentials comes complete with a Carol drinking game because every lesbian movie should be accompanied by heavy drinking. Follow along on Twitter: Lez Hang Out (@lezhangoutpod) and answer our Q & Gay at the end of every episode. Leigh Holmes Foster (@lshfoster) and Ellie Brigida (@elliebrigida).
