Flame On!

Thanks to listeners like YOU, the boys of Flame ON! were able to attend this year’s Gay Days! The price…well, it almost cost us an entire episode about lady parts. Thanks to some last minute intervention by a few loyal listeners, the winning topic of our Support Drive was Gender Roles in Media.

Jarrod leads this somewhat erudite and irreverent discussion with Bryan, Oral, Eric, the Question, and our talking bear-skin rug Pat. If you’ve ever wondered about how men, women, and the mysterious “third gender” are portrayed in comics, movies, and TV, then listen in!

San Diego Comic Con is famous for many things, but to author David Reddish it’s all about Sex, Drugs, and Superheroes — which is why that phrase makes the perfect title for his fantastic new book! Bryan the Bear and Q the Question sit down for a fascinating interview with the novelist where they learn about where Reddish got his inspiration, his thoughts on modern day superhero movies, and a few hints to some scandalous surprises in the book. Tune in to get the scoop on the hottest new book for geeks everywhere!

Bryan the Bear and The Question, along with Cap and Tony from Nerdy Show, took HeroesCon by storm! While there, the team moderated a bunch of panels and head a blast. You can hear all about our experience, as well as some of the panels in the latest Nerdy Show episode. But check this out:

Flame On’s own Bryan moderated with comics creator Jonathan Hickman and his art teams for Manhattan Projects and Secret (Mike Garland, Nick Pitarra, and Ryan Bodenheim). Also, apologies in advance for the intro music, but see if you can spot the connection!

The boys at Flame ON! worked so very hard in the Bear Expo at Gay Days 2012, and to celebrate, we recorded this microsode ON LOCATION! So if you missed your chance to stop by, say hi, and hang out with us, listen to some of what you missed. Bryan, Jarrod, Eric, and Oral interview passers-by, furries, Pat from Bears in the City and Orlando’s very own Bearaoke and much more. It was a hot, furry mess, but boy was it fun!

The boys are BACK and ready to avenge all those haters that didn’t enjoy The Avengers. Er, wait a tick, there were people that didn’t like it? Hmm, listen and find out!

Movies

While The Question was out being judged by the gods of old, Bryan, Eric, Oral, and Jarrod worked through their issues with The Wrath of the Titans and Cabin in the Woods.

TV

Do you enjoy watching Tyrion slap Joffrey over and over and over? We do too! Oral and Bryan compare notes on Game of Thrones and GCB, while Eric opines for the days of yore with his Once Upon a Time fix. Plus, find out the shocking conclusion to the latest season of RuPaul’s Drag Race (well, at least before the reunion show).

Gay News

Its the end of an era as Rick Santorum leaves the stage, allowing us to start sharpening up our Mitt Romney jokes for the campaign season. Also, what exactly did Pat Robertson say about bullying gays? Its not what you might expect.

Video Games

Bryan has a confession about Star Wars: The Old Republic, and it has everything to do with…role-playing? You have to listen to believe it!

Comics

Brett White, writer from CBR and sketch comedian, finds the Question and joins the gang to discuss about a month and a half of comics including the hot indie books Saga, Mind the Gap, and the Manhattan Projects among others. Plus, the latest on AvX, the exciting (and not-so exciting) crossovers and seconds waves at DC, and why nobody cares about poor Moon Knight.

We’re long, we’re strong, and we’re sure to get the friction on, so take your time and enjoy some of Earth’s Draggiest Heroes.

We here at Flame ON! are every bit as excited as the rest of you for Avengers to open.

Now where’d I leave Mjolnir and my Captain America briefs?
