Hey Adora: A Queer SheRa Podcast

Buckle your glitter-studded gay seat belts, rebel queerlings, because we are equally close to winning in the end OR just, THE END. While the best friend squad heads for the Heart of Etheria, the rest of our princess pals attack the Horde spire directly, hoping to draw attention away from Entrapta, who is making her move inside to disable the entire pod people chip network! And speaking of moves...our least favorite dude in the known universe is making his Big Boy move, at long last, to make the power of the Heart his own.   In other words, SHIT IS ABOUT TO GO CRAZY. .................... Glimmer poem at the Poetry Foundation: I’m rewatching the She-Ra episode where Glimmer gets sick for the first time By Arianna Monet https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/160742/im-rewatching-the-she-ra-episode-where-glimmer-gets-sick-for-the-first-time   Check out our friend Liv's debut poetry collection, if you liked that poem! https://www.gameoverbooks.com/store/p/fire-in-the-waiting-room .................................   No playlist this ep-- there will be a combined Playlist for Heart Part 2!   Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/heyadoracast   For more information, you can head over to our website HeyAdora.gay or https://linktr.ee/HeyAdora.

It's part 2 of Failsafe!! Or, part 2 of part 1 of the three-part finale movie, where all pretense of queer subtext is cast aside like a majestic cape at the epic final act of the hero's quest. THEY WERE QUEER THE WHOLE TIME, AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT, NETFLIX EXECUTIVES.   ......................... Did you know She-ra and the Princesses of Power is being removed from Netflix on February 21st? And it's not available anywhere else, even on DVD (only the first 3 seasons). We're working hard to drop the rest of our episodes before that date!   You can also sign a petition telling Netflix NOT to remove it! ....................   PLAYLIST: https://bit.ly/3YyPWls   Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/heyadoracast   For more information, you can head over to our website HeyAdora.gay or https://linktr.ee/HeyAdora.

It's part 1 of our FINAL THREE!!! The big gay feels are...big. Not to be outdone by their co-star & MVP, trauma, baby! Shadow Weaver would *really* like one more chance to use Catra & Adora as her personal wind-up toys, while Glimmer gets to meet her dad for the first time-- while he's an EVIL POD PERSON!   While over on the slightly lighter B plot, Entrapta might just save all our chipped pals at once...if she can manage to mingle amongst her clone boyfriends stealthily, which we all know is right at the top of her skill set. WHAT COULD GO WRONG. ................... This year, Hey Adora made our end of year donation to World Central Kitchen.

Dreading going home to your toxic red state family for the holidays? AT LEAST THEY DON'T LIVE IN THE FRIGHT ZONE! Yes, all our messy queers are going back home this week, with all the big lessons they've learned over the course of FIVE WHOLE SEASONS. Will it be enough to help them win in the end?

It's ROUGH to run out of gas in Death Valley! Or, if you're in a sci-fi genre show, a hauntingly desolate "crystal planet" that appears suspiciously devoid of crystals. But FEAR NOT, newly reunited best pals of ours! There are some hot queer sibs just around the corner who would probably love to team up, if you can get your messy lesbian drama together, Adora, & just do your thing! AND if Bow & Glimmer can have five freaking minutes of peace to talk about their feelings & healthy boundaries?? AAGGHH CRYSTALS!!!   (...Also, that's ice.

HOLY SHITBALLS IT'S SEASON 5!!! Our buddies are LEVELING UP for the final battle for the fate of the world, or, perhaps, the entire universe. (If you think that's scary, check out Project 2025-- the GOP's plans for the US after the next election! This is some end-times shit, y'all).   Meanwhile IN SPACE, Glimmer & Catra are trapped on Horde Prime's mothership, aka Our Lady of Perpetual Death Star; will their journeys finally align to the supremely badass sparklekitty duo we're all rooting for?

It's part one of our GRAND FINALE, aka Heart Part 2, part 1! The action! The feels! THE GAY!!!!   Catra is a big damn action hero, Shadow Weaver does her One Good Thing, Hordak defies Big Brother, and the earth(theria) might just swallow us all up in a rain of eternal hellfire if the heroics don't come quick enough! But our buds are fierce, loyal and true.  It's all on the line, queerfam.   Good thing our real lives are SUPER CHILL RIGHT NOW and this is exactly the kind of escapist fantasy we're all looking for to spice things up a bit!

It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good-- on the high seas or for our pals on Etheria! They're off to occupied Erlandia, the adorable town of the veggie folk, to get some intel on our chipped princess pals. Meanwhile, Wrong Hordak learns about the joys of facial affect now that he's free to be an individual, and OH BOY is he eager to spread the message of dissent amongst the ranks, while also playing it VERY COOL & STEALTHY. Should be no problem for our pals, who are SO GREAT AT STEALTH.

In our next episode of QUEERS IN SPACE!! She-ra has returned in the most iconically queer manner, we have successfully saved the cat, but now FOR SOME REASON our pals just can't seem to evade Horde Prime's forces...could it somehow be related to the very creepy vibes our buddies back on Etheria encounter when they attempt a rescue in Elberon?!
