Episode 1 Remaster!
The team at Gay Breakfast is still having issues with making space in our schedules as well as finding new recording software, so for now get nostalgic with us! Even if you weren't around when we initially recorded episode 1, you can still feel some nostalgia for the topic of Steven Universe....

Non-Binary, Not Neutral
Last year Natalie was exploring what it meant to be a non-binary person who presents more femme than androgynous. After a big year of struggle, transformation, and discovery, it's time to talk about gender identity with more confidence and certainty. A good listen for anyone who doesn't belong to...
-
Top Surgery - One Year Later
Very personal episode ahead, Judith looks back on their top surgery from a year ago and the changes it's brought to their life. Discussion includes transforming gender, non-binary validation, and the experience of the surgery itself. If you've ever been curious about non-binary top surgery or…

Into the Dystopian Lesbian Wilds
Have you heard about that TV show The Wilds on amazon? The one that's like Lost, but better and gayer? Neither had we until we stumbled across it while browsing one night. This one is definitely worth talking about, so please join us! Spoiler-free first half, full spoilers second half because…

The Prom: Gay Musicals for the Straights?
Sorry for the late upload everyone! Today we dive deep into queer nostalgia as we talk about a classic fav: MUSICAAAAALS! Broadway's been dark for a year, but Netflix has us covered with their own adaptation of 2018's "The Prom". How does it measure up as a movie-musical, and as a queer story? We...

Adachi & Shimamura - Reliving the "Just Friends" Years
Today we discuss a recent anime of the yuri genre, about a pair of high school girls who are good friends. BEST friends. Gal pals, you might even say. Adachi & Shimamura is low-key and relaxed in pace, but we think it provides a truly relatable look back at when you're first starting to realize...
-
Happiest Season, but Not Really
BEEN A WHILE, hello there! Is this an X-mas movie review in MY January? You bet it is, because me and Natalie live by our own rules. We talk about Happiest Season, more famously known as "That Gay Kristen Stewart Christmas Movie". We have a little bit of catching up to do before we start talking...
-
Bury Your Queerbaiting and SuperLock Your Gays
Today we discuss three different shows that have stirred up controversy due to the choices they made while representing (or not representing) MLM characters. Supernatural, Sherlock, and Voltron have all flirted with some harmful tropes that have divided their queer viewers. We can't discuss...
-
Gay Throwback: Lapis Lazuli
Hey everyone, Natalie had a bunch of diagnostics done this week (she's ok), so our lovely editor refurbished one of our earliest episodes to fill this week since we were short on time. Original description: "Today our main topic is the Steven Universe character Lapis Lazuli, and how her depiction...

-
It's Never Too Late
Today we discuss an element of queer life, and something that's personal to a lot of us - the feeling that you've waited "too long" to come out or be true to yourself. Any of us who feel this way are much less alone than we might think, so let's talk about it. It's never too late to be true to...
-
Half-Gender Princess Yashahime
We get a little nostalgic today as we discuss the new sequel/spinoff to our old standby Inuyasha, Half-Demon Princess Yashahime. Stories by author Rumiko Takahashi have had some issues when it comes to portrayals of queer characters or themes, but we think this new endeavor might just break away...
-
Kipo and the Age of WonderQueers
Now that Netflix's series Kipo & the Age of Wonderbeasts has wrapped up, we can do a full series review! This show is a good, unabashedly queer time with great themes for its young audience. If you wanna hear more queer perspective on Kipo, give us a listen.

-
Mulan's Rainbow Reflection
Today we discuss Disney's 1998 animated film, Mulan, and what it meant to each of us as queer teens watching it for the first time. For all its flaws, this is much more of a film worth fighting for than any version Disney has tried to follow it with. CW: Later in the podcast we discuss cancer...
-
A Stupid Gay Time with Netflix
We've had a lot of watching hours to kill during quarantine, and Netflix has been there for many of us. We even get a queer character here or there, lucky us! In this episode: The Order, the new Charmed, Warrior Nun, and Cursed all get the Gay Breakfast treatment.

The Gay Witches of The Owl House
Sorry to get this to y'all late, but we wanted to watch ALL of season 1 of the Owl House before we did our episode. This horror-comedy for kids is the first disney TV show to have a queer main character, but there's a lot more gay magic to be discovered here. Judith and Natalie are always happy…

She-Ra & The Princesses of Power: Part 2
We continue our look back at Noelle Stevenson's She-Ra by covering seasons 2 & 3 (which are actually just season 2 sliced up). Scorpia, Huntara, and a desert full of furries are definitely enough to get us excited. But we talk about the heavier side too, and all the feelings that went into…

Steven Universe: The Question
Howdy pardners. I reckon part 3 of our week-long Steven bomb podcast blitz is here. Seems we're on a steady gay incline with each new episode, and Brokeback Mountain: Ruby Edition is the next step up. There's a lot of queer analysis to be had here, including a historic first for a kid's cartoon.…
