Queering Committee: Chainmaille, Car Bills, and American Horror Story Coven

Dominic and Jo open with chaotic updates from their outfits, finances, and the sheer toll of a £606 car repair bill. From there, the conversation veers into queer language, ADHD meds, gay hairdressers, and a shared obsession with American Horror Story, especially Coven. In this episode, Dominic and Jo keep it loose, funny, and deeply personal. They talk about queer joy, being contrarian, budgeting under pressure, and why Coven still hits so hard.
