This week on Every Rom Com we’re exploring the world of gay teen rom coms as we discuss “Alex Strangelove” with Clayton from the Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies podcast. We talk about coming out narratives and coming out in real life; discuss the movie’s hilarious scenes, hot chemistry, and what we thought could have been better; and we get into the careers of up and coming actors Daniel Doheny and Antonio Marziale, and director Craig Johnson (“The Skeleton Twins”, “Wilson”). This episode gets hilarious, heartfelt, and personal - don’t miss it, or the underrated teen film “Alex Strangelove”!

0:00-12:38 Introduction. Introducing Clayton from the Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies podcast!

Guest Bio:

Clayton is a queer podcaster from the Midwest. He loves all types of films, has survived cancer - twice, is 3.5 years sober which is the thing he is the most proud of, and one time met Shania Twain while he was out eating Italian! Now he gets to do what he loves, which is talking about movies with as many people as possible. (And Beauty and the Beast is the best film of all time)
