Episode 87: What Do You Do When Your Faves Let You Down?

Published: Oct. 2, 2020, 5 a.m.

Warning: this week\u2019s discussion will include the subjects of\xa0transphobia, racism, anti-Semitism, anti-LGBTQ sentiment,\xa0and\xa0sexual assault.\xa0

This week, Andi and\xa0Lise\xa0were joined by Tara Scott, book reviewer extraordinaire\xa0(Smart Bitches, Trashy Books\xa0and The Lesbian Review),\xa0to discuss writers whose work they may still admire but who they have stopped supporting because of said writers\u2019 personal views made public and/or actions. There are no easy answers, and everyone who consumes content should make their own decisions on whether to support that content or not. Here, the LGO crew grapple with what that means in their own consumption habits, and grapple, too, with what it means to find out one of your\xa0faves\xa0has\xa0said or done something that goes against their own personal views and/or that has potentially harmed others.\xa0
