It's a new season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars and Oral and Pat are back to dish the T with all of you! Now normally we don't recap each episode, but this season of All Stars looks to be the most intense, drama filled, craziness in wigs and lashes and we just couldn't help ourselves! In this episode we break down which fan favorite queens have returned to the workroom, some of the rule changes, and our new panel of judges.Plus we'll give you our take on the mini and maxi challenges, who whether we agree with the elimination!

New episodes of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 2 air on LOGO and VH1 on Thursdays at 8pm and we'll be back here every Monday, so be sure to join us as we FLAME ON!

The boys are back for another monthly full cast recording and there is a lot of items on the docket and only so much time to talk about it all! Bryan is joined by cast regulars Oral, B.J. and Jeff (with Pat in the sound booth) and special guest, host of StoopidPopcast, Joseph! The boys tackle the slew of summer movies that have invaded the theaters, including Star Trey Beyond, GhostBusters, and Suicide Squad, and hold nothing back in their reviews! They also dip their toes into the TV world touching on Stranger Things (which will get a full microsode treatment in the very near future), Preacher, and the trailer for Legion. Joseph brings you some fun Pokemon GO news tidbits and the boys tell you about their current favorite comic out right now before telling you about what is giving them life this month in our new segment, 1-UPs!

We know it's been a while, but Drag Is The New Spandex is BACK and we couldn't think of a better queen to bring back than Orlando's very own, Ginger Minj! Hot off the release of the trailer for RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 2, and the shocking news that the top two queens will have to lip synch for their legacy and will be responsible for eliminating the other queens, Ginger stops by to spill the T of her life while giving us some clues to how it was to film All Stars (well it couldn't be too much... we didn't want LOGO breaking down the door to our studios!) as well as what is new in her life (his name just happens to be Chris, who is adorable and not lacking in ahem other areas as well) and gives us some scoop about her upcoming album. We also touch base about politics, MRSA outbreaks and more as this Cross Dresser for Christ opens up and holds nothing back. Plus we get some fun insights into Ginger from Chris!

If you're ready to tuck, get snatched for the gods, and sissy that walk, then we are ready for you! So get your wig on and strap up your heels because Ginger Minj is going to give it all to you!

We close our discussion out with our 1-UPs of the week and share with you what is giving us LIFE!

The boys of Flame ON! are back and we begin this episode with our take on the mass shooting at Pulse Orlando where we lost friend and Flame ON! contributor Drew Leinonen. We know that this is a very sensitive and hard topic to deal with, so if you are not ready to hear this discussion please skip ahead to 38:55. From there we compose ourselves and discuss the mixed reviews of Warcraft, how X-Men: Apocalypse affects the Fox movie universe, Preacher's debut, as well as what television shows are going to make a comeback this Fall and which got the ax.

Our comics segment takes a break this month, but Oral, Bryan and Pat will be back soon with another in depth look at what the landscape of the comics looks like midway through 2016!

Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the tragedy at Pulse and we want to let you know that you are not alone. We are here, we are strong, and we are unbreakable!

Sit back, relax, and get ready to FLAME ON!

It's with heavy hearts that we bring you this special episode of Flame ON! dedicated to our friend, Drew Leinonen.

On Sunday June 12, 2016 around 2 a.m. a gunman opened fire in Pulse nightclub here in Orlando, FL. Thankfully our crew is safe, but this senseless tragedy has sent shockwaves of sadness, anger, hurt, and rage through all of us in the LGBTQ+ community, Orlando as a whole, the United States, and the world. We had planned to record our normal episode on June 12th and that episode will be released in our normal spot, but we couldn't speak out about this senseless act of violence. There has been no editing done to this audio. This is the raw and emotional reaction and stories of our family. We hope that you can listen in and mourn with us and please know that we are here to help and support you through this incredibly tough time.

If you are looking for a way to help, please consider donating blood if you are in the Central Florida area. They are in desperate need for O+ and O- as well as AB blood platelets. If you are unable to donate blood (as are all of us due to the FDA ban on sexually active gay men), then please consider donating to the official GoFundMe account set up by Equality Florida to help the victims who survived as well as the families of those who did not.

R.I.P. Christopher Andrew Leinonen - You were taken too soon, but will never be forgotten!

We are Orlando! We are Pulse! We are UNBREAKABLE!
