Welcome back to Fright School! This week we catch up on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars. Joshua gives a lesson in tucking testicles. Inguinal is the word of the day! We go CRUISING for some killer sex... We're revisiting the 1980 Al Pacino flick and all of its Queer, leather glory. We discuss accusations of homophobia in the film, the validity of a particular depiction of Queer sexuality, and the confusing narrative. Grease up your arms we're going in DEEP!
