KINGS AFFECTION/Gender Banter With Judith
Show Notes

In this episode Celi and Maksu are discussing the current hit drama "Kings Affection".
In addition to reviewing the drama as per usual (yes including the category in which Maksu is ranting about what anachronisms you can find in this historical drama - you guessed right: it's football yet again) they'll also be focusing on Judith Butler's theory of gender performativity and HOW AMAZINGLY QUEER THIS DRAMA IS!
Of course there will also be much of the obligatory swooning and nerdy references. 

Until 15:00 banter on ancient languages 
from 16:00 synopsis of the plot and intro to the drama (banter ensues)
from 36:00 Judith Butler and the theory of gender performativity

Enjoy everyone!
