Flame On :: Episode 228 :: You Need To Calm Down, It’s Pride Month!

Posted by Bryan on June 21, 2019

Flame ON! is the all-gay, all-geek podcast. Tune in as we dish on the latest in pop and queer culture.

Cracking fans, throwing shade… You Need To Calm Down because it’s time for PRIDE! Check your Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels and get ready to dish the dirt and spill the tea about the things that are making us gag this month!

The boys have arrived to the rainbow-draped round table to tackle the topics that are hot on their sparkly lips. There may be sunshine on the street at your local pride parade, but our first topic still wants to live in the dark ages as we discuss the most recent attempt for a Straight Pride parade in Boston, capitalism during pride month, and then the pastel rainbow shines for Taylor Swift’s new bop, “You Need To Calm Down” and its boost to LGBTQIA+ visibility as well as the increased donations to GLAAD! From there they chat about Godzilla: King of the Monsters, some highlights from this year’s E3 including the Final Fantasy 7 remake, Pokemon Sword and Shield, and the news that a Breath of the Wild sequel is in the works, and Crystal Crisis. The second round of topics include Sarazanmai, Eugene from The Try Guys beautiful coming out video, “Weird Al” in concert, and a complete thrashing of Dark Phoenix (full of spoilers… you’ve been warned!). The boys close out the conversation with their picks for their 1-UPs… the things that are giving them LIFE!!!

Sit back and get ready to FLAME ON!
