Summary

When you join our Lez Hang Out family on Patreon you will gain instant access to 23 and counting full-length bonus episodes, ad-free weekly episodes, mp3 downloads of all our original songs, an invite to our exclusive Discord channel, and more! A Patreon membership is also a great gift for making your loved one’s Yuletide (and next 12 months) as gay as possible.  Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is a little bit obsessed with Beanie Feldstein.  This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) talk about the 2024 dark buddy comedy Drive-Away Dolls for this Lez-ssentials episode, a recurring segment on the essential movies and TV shows in the lesbian canon.  Drive-Away Dolls is a chaotic queer romp set in 1999. The plot follows Jamie and Marian, two lesbian besties who could not be more different from one another, as they take a road trip to Tallahassee while being pursued by some very inefficient goons. Coen brothers movies are known for a flavor of dark humor and a level of absurdity that can be polarizing, and this one is no exception. While Leigh (and her wife) found Drive-Away Dolls hilarious, Ellie won’t be rewatching anytime soon. If you’re hoping to find a new ship to stay up late reading about on Ao3, you’ll probably be disappointed. Although the level of lesbian shenanigans is off the charts from Jamie’s L Word vibe to the sheer number of dildos on screen at any given time, the sexual chemistry between the leads is not believable. While we can’t quite root for Jamie and Marian as a couple, we still found the movie enjoyable as an outlandishly gay comedy. At the end of the episode, stick around to hear our original song based on Drive-Away Dolls, titled “Member of Congress”, written by Leigh Holmes Foster and produced by Ellie Brigida. Join us on Patreon at bit.ly/lezpatreon for instant access to mp3 downloads of all our original songs or find us on Bandcamp to purchase songs individually.  Mark your calendars for our Black Friday Sale! From November 29th- Cyber Monday all of our original merch will be 20% off with code “LHOBlackFriday”. Check out our store at bit.ly/lezmerch and start making your wish list now.  We are heading to France from March 31st through April 6th for this year’s BIG GAY TRIP!
