Listen "Episode 4 - Queer Eye and Allegory of the Cave"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we discuss Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" and Season 5 Episode 1 of Queer Eye. We first take a look at an interpretation the cave as a description of queer representation in media versus actual modern day queer spaces and dialogues. Then we discuss in more detail the episode of Queer Eye which centers around a gay evangelical christian pastor and how him and the “fab five” are represented. We eat cornbread in celebration of the pastor’s southern roots and joke about how the fab five are teaching him to be a better proselytizer.
