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! We can’t wait to see you there. Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that will catch you time after time. This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out and talk about why the 1997 comedy Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion Should’ve Been Gay. After over 130 of these, we can honestly say that Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion is in our top 5 of the gayest films we have ever seen. If you manage to interpret this movie as in any way heterosexual, we just have one question: why? Nothing about the plot makes any sense if these women are straight. We even have two bonus lesbians in supporting characters, Heather and our fav, Lisa Luder! With four queer women in this movie, Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion is practically a Lez-ssential. While we would agree it is a perfectly typical growing-up experience to make a pact to marry your bestie should either of you not still be married by the age of 30 (at least it was in the 90s), it is less typical when you make that pact at 28 years old. That’s just a proposal at that point. Romy and Michele are essentially engaged and you cannot convince us otherwise. In this essay, we will… j/k, but we know one thing for sure, Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion Should’ve Been Gay. We are heading to France from March 31st through April 6th for this year’s BIG GAY TRIP! Join Ellie and Leigh for a vacay to Bordeaux and Paris where we will tour a winery, explore the catacombs, and dance the night away at the best gay bars. Make a 25% deposit by January 1st to secure your spot on the trip. Space is limited, so sign up soon! Give us your own answers to our Q & Gay on Instagram and follow along on Facebook, TikTok, and BlueSky @lezhangoutpod. Please note that we have decided to free ourselves from the platform formerly known as Twitter. We will not be logging back in over there, please don’t make us.
