One of my all-time favs is "Call of Cthulhu Mystery Program" @cthulhumystery.bsky.social, though the character played by the phenomenal Cat Blackard isn't trans, but she is very gay and played by a trans woman.

you can also hear her in "K8 Was Here", a 'surprise RPG' youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I nearly forgot that my @fableandfolly.bsky.social Plus gets me bonus episodes from @cthulhumystery.bsky.social including the Cthulhu Cthommentaries! I got to hear @catblackard.bsky.social talk about From Beyond! Fascinating! I wonder how I would have felt had I seen it when I was younger.

Our showrunner, @catblackard.bsky.social's love for Lovecraft goes back to high school when she was making student films. Watch her early work below and check out the new episode of @proghorrorpod.bsky.social where she discusses this film's shared lineage with I Saw the TV Glow.
ALSO, in the year 2000 I made my own episode of The Pink Opaque: an angsty, dreamy Lovecraft and Phantasm-inspired high school horror film called ShatterDream that's rife with inadvertent trans allegory. We discuss it in the podcast and now you can see it for yourself: vimeo.com/190011288 2/2

Cough up that Luna Juice, friend, and hear my telepathic cry! The cast of @proghorrorpod.bsky.social invited me to join their Midnight Society for a tear-soaked, reality-upending discussion on #ISawTheTVGlow, Pete & Pete, and other static-hazed media on the fringes of suburban nostalgia. 🧵1/2
Did you catch this week's new episode? We talked I Saw the TV Glow, 90's tv, being trans, and needing to scream at the top of your lungs at the family fun park with @catblackard.bsky.social . shows.acast.com/progressivel...

The historical fiction audio dramas Harlem Queen and 1972 showcase the power of podcasting to dynamically bring to life stories and histories that other mediums overlook. The creator of those shows, @yhane.bsky.social, has a new project in the works and you should join me in backing it. ❤️‍🔥
