Episode 66: The Birdcage&In&Out - a podcast by Brian Rowe

This week we're finally covering two of the 1990's most iconic gay films; The Birdcage and In & Out. Arriving in the middle of the Clinton era, they feature mostly straight actors in queer roles (Nathan Lane didn't come out until 1999) . Made largely by straight people for straight people, these films nevertheless touched a nerve to a generation still coming to terms with their sexuality. Join us while we talk about our experiences using these films as cover for our burgeoning sexuality, whether the comedy holds up and Hank Azaria's short shorts.
