A dog walks into a lesbian bar. I am not sure there is a punchline but there is definitely a podcast episode here. Listen to this chat with my lovely friend and colleague Maria to hear about the conference we will be hosting together, about queerness and/in the city, about seriality and sexuality, and about Maria’s fascinating take on TV and identity.

Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
- What is a second city?
- What do cities have to do with queerness?
- Maria briefly speaks about metronormativity. Please find a definition for this term and think about how it is relevant to urban/rural queer spaces.
- What is seriality? Which kinds of narratives might this concept apply to?
- How is seriality relevant to gender and sexuality? Maria speaks about bisexuality but maybe you can think of storylines in series that deal with other aspects of queerness?
