Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is not that girl!  This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Amanda Holland (@fruity.productions), award-winning comedy writer and filmmaker (who you may recall from our Frozen SBG) to talk about why the 2024 hit musical film Wicked Should’ve Been Gay. Now, you’re probably thinking, “But wait, Ellie and Leigh, the 2024 hit musical film Wicked is already gay”. After all, the source material, a literal Wizard of Oz fanfiction, is pretty much the gayest book ever. But, while we see the tragic enemies-to-lovers (and they were roommates!) of it all between Elphaba and Galinda on screen clear as day, it technically only exists in subtext (so far). We really don’t get how, but there are a wild amount of people that do not see Elphie and Glinda as anything more than “really good friends”. In our opinion the only thing that might be gayer than the Wicked movie is the Wicked movie press tour. Whatever was happening there between Cynthia and Ari, we support it 1000000%.  In this episode we go through the entire movie song by song (with a few detours along the way). It was incredibly hard to keep this episode from being as long as the movie itself. In our defense, all three of us are massively passionate about Wicked. Amanda’s senior yearbook quote was taken directly from the lyrics of “Defying Gravity”, which we all know is a queer anthem (please hold space for the lyrics of “Defying Gravity”, thank you). Leigh, who insists she never had a “Wicked phase”, just isn’t that girl (but maybe she could be “that boy”). And Ellie is ready to call out Galinda’s name change for what it really is, “white girl activism”.  We know one thing for sure, Wicked Should’ve Been Gay. Stay tuned on Youtube to @fruitytv where Amanda plans to release 6 episodes of her brand new queer indie television show throughout the year!
