Happy Pride! This year Vanessa & Daeron dissect the queer & trans aspects of 1998’s “Bride of Chucky” & 2004’s “Seed of Chunky.” Do they deserve the hate that they got when they were originally released? Or were they ahead of their time? We certainly think they need another watch & need to be appreciated for the LGBTQ+ content alone. Be sure to listen for our poll question from the episode (hint: it involves Julia Roberts). You can weigh in on Facebook or via our email. We’ll announce our answers next episode. Next episode: Episodes 4-6 (season 1) of “The Boys” paired with a portion of the Garth Ennis comic. LEGION: https://www.legionpodcasts.com/podcasts/the-vd-clinic/ ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-vd-clinic/id1250949032SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/03BPkYLembG4cAWr3I1Nyq?si=dQ4fGmIuRaa_W1009_zYPA&nd=1Legion Relief: https://www.gofundme.com/f/legionnaires039-relief?utm_source=widget&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=p_cp%20share-sheet&fbclid=IwAR29ZKpjvVgTzkK1kxmFySp6tYACS2RHsdPYaE1uYnvTYVqMY840StyDI_c​  ​Check us out: on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/VDClinicPod​ and on Twitter & Instagram as @VDClinicPod or via email at vdclinicpod@gmail.com.

It’s that time of year again. We’ve made it through another year, & Vanessa and Daeron are bringing you another anniversary commentary episode. This time we cover David Lynch’s “Blue Velvet.” The 1986 film starring Kyle MacLachlan, Isabella Rossellini, Laura Dern, & Dennis Hopper is a bit more prestigious than some of our other commentaries, yet we manage some laughs. Next for our Pride episode, we’re going a little campy with a double bill of 1998’s “Bride of Chucky” & 2004’s “Seed of Chucky.”​ ​LEGION: https://www.legionpodcasts.com/podcasts/the-vd-clinic/​  ​ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-vd-clinic/id1250949032​  ​SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/03BPkYLembG4cAWr3I1Nyq?si=dQ4fGmIuRaa_W1009_zYPA&nd=1​ ​Legion Relief: https://www.gofundme.com/f/legionnaires039-relief?utm_source=widget&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=p_cp%20share-sheet&fbclid=IwAR29ZKpjvVgTzkK1kxmFySp6tYACS2RHsdPYaE1uYnvTYVqMY840StyDI_c​  ​Check us out: on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/VDClinicPod​ and on Twitter & Instagram as @VDClinicPod or via email at vdclinicpod@gmail.com.
