    Preserving historic queer films takes a lot of work. Researching, sourcing, scouting, and securing these once-lost materials takes a lot of time, effort and, well, money. If you want to help us with this part of our mission, please support our Patreon. Patreon.com/askanybuddy

    If you liked KNIFE + HEART--or you're a fan of EQUATION TO AN UNKNOWN--you're really going to love the film in our brand-new episode: Jean Estienne's AND GOD CREATED MEN. Artistic, raunchy, and very French: it's a knockout. Join us to learn more!

    Want to learn more about James Bidgood, gay aesthetic icon and director of PINK NARCISSUS? Check out our episode on GOOD HOT STUFF--a cheeky quasi-documentary that cleverly repurposes Bidgood's unfinished second film! Available wherever you podcast.

    New episode! This week we’re taking a look at Jack Deveau’s 1974 film “about fifty very compulsive men,” DRIVE — possibly the only movie to mix overt homages to Dietrich and Mekas with disco and fisting. On Spotify, Apple, Stitcher, and at: ask-any-buddy.com/podcast/episod…

    The film in our latest episode is...curiously similar in name to one that had come out just a couple years prior: Arthur J. Bressan, Jr.'s FORBIDDEN LETTERS. Fortunately, we've also covered that classic, starring Original Daddy Richard Locke. Tune in.
