Butterflies and Religion
In episode five of The Crush Chronicles Podcast, we welcome Ames (they/them), an aspiring screenwriter with a focus on Asian-American film studies and queer storytelling, a donut lover, and an avid reader.
Ames is soft-spoken but has many philosophical ideas and thoughtful insights behind that voice. In this episode, we get into the nitty-gritty of butterfly-inducing moments and ask, “Can religion weave its way into the realm of the crush?”
If you’d like to connect with and follow Ames, you can find them on YouTube @reeltakes to check out their video essays.
