Let’s just get started with the Top 20 Episodes of Music Movies.

I was on a podcast!

I got the opportunity to be a guest host on the podcast Lesbian Talk, hosted by Diamanda Hagan and The Omega, two reviewers that I definitely recommend checking out. We shot the shit about fantasy movies (supposed to be high fantasy but trust me to derail that ever so slightly) and I had fun with it. I hope you'll enjoy it as well!
