Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that actually got Leigh to watch an entire season of a show the same year it was released! This week, co-hosts Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out to discuss one of the most talked-about new shows of 2025, Netflix’s The Hunting Wives. This queer-baity murder-mystery novel turned actually-queer TV series, starring Malin Akerman (Margo) and Brittany Snow (Sophie), has completely taken over the gay internet. Whether you’ve seen a single episode of The Hunting Wives or not, you’ve 100% seen gifs of Margo and Sophie that are decidedly not safe for work. We had so many people reach out to us about this show that we simply could not leave 2025 behind without first talking about the Sophie and Margo of it all. We don’t have wildly different opinions on shows all that often, but this one had Ellie absolutely obsessed and Leigh feeling deeply uncomfortable 80% of the time (although she still plans to watch the next season!). In Leigh’s defense, the characters are all largely unlikeable hot messes and there are way too many creepy, gross men for any one show. Sophie is an alcoholic that could not make a good decision if her life depended on it and Margo is a predatory sex-addict– oh, and did we mention these wives basically all end up being murderers? Bonkers plot aside, the chemistry between Malin Akerman and absolutely anyone on screen with her at any given time is off the charts. Even if you can’t buy into Margo’s performative sexuality, there is no denying the chemistry between her and Brittany Snow. In season 2 we’re hoping for a lot less of having to watch Margo sleep with high school boys and a lot more of Sophie taking ownership of her choices (and choosing to make gayer ones).
