Episode description

Vanessa Zoltan and Hannah McGregor meet-up on a school confession board to record this week’s episode of Hot and Bothered, all about Love Simon.

This week we discuss homonormativity, the narrative chokehold of 'coming-out', and the bizarre 'cool' parents in this movie. We finish the episode by calling Joseph Reagle to talk about anonymity online.

If we give you butterflies, consider supporting us on Patreon! We're currently running a campaign to try to reach 100 new paid patrons by the end of September. If we hit our goal, all patrons will get to attend a special virtual live-recording with Vanessa and Hannah.
