About this episode:

Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) are joined by Jessie Blount and Lark Malakai Grey, the hosts of The Gayly Prophet (@thegaylyprophet) to talk about why The Addams Family Should've Been Gay. Lark talks about the T for T relationship between Morticia and Gomez and the ace vibes he gets from Lurch, Jessie is all about Gomez' dapper dandy fashion and the late in life coming out story from Margaret and cousin It, Leigh can't imagine that Wednesday Addams, played by Cristina Ricci, can be anything but a baby gay and Ellie argues that "Uncle Fester" finding his family is the most beautiful chosen family story we've ever seen in a movie. The Addams Family is queer culture and we were grinning from ear to ear talking about the enthusiastic consent between Morticia and Gomez and this delightfully queer family!
