PWP 50: The Victorious Reclaiming of Hell by Lil Nas X

Episode Summary

In this episode we have a very lively discussion about Lil Nas X's debut album, "Montero," focusing primarily on "Call Me By Your Name," and his use of Christian religious imagery. With Justin's background as a minister and religious scholar, we really dig into what that imagery is and what they invoke. Rebecca speaks for to her own love of the album as a whole, and how his music and videos have articulated feelings she has as a queer person.
