Pose & Legendary

This week on The Essentials, Mallory, Esra, and Gina consider the essentialism and celebrate the joy of two shows, Pose and Legendary. Mallory declares the dancers of Legendary TV’s most athletic, Esra shares some learnings about trans representation in film and television, and Gina makes the case that audiences have evolved beyond the need for Trojan horses in storytelling.Thanks for being a subscriber to our podcast! We usually recommend one of our other podcast episodes in this space, but this week, we really do think you should just go and watch these two shows. Or check out Disclosure, the documentary discussed by Esra this week. Got some feedback for us, or have a suggestion for what we should cover next?
