Flame On!

Winter is Coming, but you can be prepared! Join Q, Bryan, and his brother Jeff to learn all about the Starks, the Lannisters, and those horse f*cking Dothraki. Don’t care about knights and dragons and monsters (oh my)? Maybe you’ll be interested in hot knight shaving each other, or learning exactly what the Rainbow Bridge is.

Are you hungry for some comics? Are you hungry for some movies, TV, and books? Are you hungry for Hunger Games?! Then this is the gay geeky podcast for you. Bryan the Bear, Jarrod the Drawgonist, Eric the Muscle Daddy, Oral the Bitch, and the Question of Questionable Fellatio Techniques are joined by Joey and Jono from Geeks OUT for the raunchiest Flame On! show since… last episode!

Movies

What’s better than a movie with a half-naked lead man? A movie with a half-naked lead man on MARS! The boys give their hot and steamy thoughts on John Carter, but be sure to check out the Nerdy Show’s extended review on the big, expensive Disney movie. The Adventures of Tintin gets a (third?) review when Bryan and Oral talk about the Blu Ray release, and then we dive into The Hunger Games! If you are looking for a dedicated discussion on the year’s biggest blockbuster, then the odds surely are ever in your favor!

Book

Books? Between movies, TV, video games, and comics, who has time for books? The Question does! He picked up the new hit fantasy novel The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss and gives his first impressions. It’s a story within a story within a story in the style of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter!

TV

There’s Scarlet Bitches and then there’s GCB (Good Christian Bitches). Guess which one they made a TV show about? Bryan shares his love for Kristen Chenoweth’s latest show that allows her to be amazing. We also talk about a cool BBC America show, James May’s Toy Stories, and the news of a new Doctor Who companion! But the biggest nerd-TV premiere just hit and we dedicate a nice chunk of time to discussing Avatar: The Legend of Korra! Benders beware, the time has come for a new Avatar and we could not be more excited!

Gay News

One Million Homophobic Moms Target Archie Comics And Toys R Us. We couldn’t fucking believe it, either.

Video Games

Eric plays Fallout 3, which has nothing to do with the third time his asshole fell out. He gives his impressions, and then Bryan and the Question weigh in on Star Wars: The Old Republic and the fate of the gay guilds!

WonderCon Report

The Question went on another trip, this time to sunny California for WonderCon! He dishes on Battleship, Prometheus, and uncovers exactly what Marvel Infinite is! He also saw Michael Fassbender, who apparently still has massive powers of attraction!

Comics

We mourn the loss of Ralph McQuarrie and Jean Giraud (Moebius), two visionary, influential designers/illustrators. They will be missed but their beautiful legacy will live on.

A notable indie release hits with Supercrooks by Mark Millar, while Q discovers A Waste of Time, which is about a bunny who ties up twinks! Q bought it to the podcast, so if you were wondering why Jarrod was so quiet, there’s your answer.

Marvel has us itching for the release of AvX (Avengers vs. X-Men), which will decide the fate of Oral and Eric. Oops, the Scarlet Witch and Phoenix. The boys give their opinions on Carol Danvers’ new Captain Marvel outfit (yikes…) and squee with excitement over the epic finale to Jonathan Hickman’s Fantastic Four storyline!

DC remakes their Captain Marvel and also serves up great issues for Batman (Dick backhand!), Wonder Woman (ugly Poseidon!), and Animal Man (badass daughter!). Plus, Swamp Thing gets wings!

The studs from Geeks OUT were amazing guests (and not only because they recorded nude via webcam) and our very own Jarrod will be submitting art for their upcoming benefit Takei Back the Night. Check out geeksout.org, have a martini, take some uncouth pictures in the mirror, post them on GuysWithiPhones.com, and then settle down for a long steamy night with Flame On!

In this very special Flame ON! microsode, Bryan and Jarrod talk to Charger Stone of the DC Bëar Crüe about what it means to be a bear, what the difference is between a wolf and an otter, and everything else you’ve ever wanted to know about bear culture. Put down that salmon, stop woofing at that cute cub working at Target, and find out all about the ursine taxonomy!

The Gay Comic Geek is here! That’s right, Paul – the nerdiest, geekiest, muscliest guy on YouTube – guest starred on our biggest episode yet! He joined Bryan the Barely Bear, Jarrod the Alterna-Guy, Eric the Muscle Pig, Oral the Catty Sick Black Friend, and The Question of Questionable Sexual Practices as they discussed movies, games, comics, and NERD FITNESS?!!? If you’re a nerd who wants to pwn n00bz but also look great, or if you just want to hear what we thought about Star Wars in 3D, then turn us on, strap it on, and get ready to FLAME ON!

MegaCon

The entire Flame On! crew met up at Orlando MegaCon and had a blast! They caught Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre artist Amanda Conner during the con, but the best times were had afterward. They shared drinks with DC pros and scared away a Star Trek character, but you’ll have to listen to see if they reveal how they pulled that off. Paul went and had a total of six different costumes! He shares some of his stories, but The Question doubts he was sober the entire time…

Movies

Chronicle is the first found-footage super hero movie and the boys weigh in on what they thought about the movie and the quirky writer Max Landis. We also revisit Tintin (briefly) before giving reviews of Underworld: Awakening and Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D. Also, hear their reactions to the new Amazing Spider-Man and The Avengers trailers! This year is gonna be even more super hero-y than last year!

Games

Eric and Q discover the wonder of the Uncharted series and think about boinking Drake. At the other end of the galaxy, Bryan and Q are still going at it hard with their light sabers in Star Wars: The Old Republic.

TV

When you think football, you think Madonna, right? Didn’t think so. But the boys weigh in on her Super Bowl halftime performance and discuss whether the Queen of Pop ought to let someone else take over.

There’s also talk about the electrifying new show Justified, which surprisingly doesn’t deal with fonts or style sheets. Paul and Oral make a love connection over Naruto, while Paul shares the rest of his favorites including Big Bang Theory and Archer!

Gay News

Prop 8 is overturned (again)! Plus some other states allow homos to marry! But Eric is already married, Bryan prefers to hibernate in sin, and Oral and Q are destined to be single forever, so while the news is great, they ultimately are just bitter about it.

Music

Bryan attended a concert and sipped on some honeyed whiskey while rocking out to Jonathan Coulton and headliners They Might Be Giants. Oral laments the loss of his own…personal…diva Whitney Houston. The Question mentions a favorite indie band of his called Fun has finally punched through to the Top 40 thanks to their hit single “We Are Young” being featured on Glee!

Nerd Fitness

Paul’s strength is off the charts, and we’re not just talking about that +7 Str modifier on his D&D character. He’s super fit but also loves Superboy as much as the rest of us. He talks about his daily routine, workout diet, and offers some helpful advice to those who want abs as much as they want their own light saber. And, of course, the boys grill Paul on whether he has sex in costume!

Comics

It was a huge month for indie comics: Archie, Locke and Key, Jim Henson’s Tale of Sand, Saga, Fatale, Thief of Thieves, Aphrodisiac, Prophet, and Phonogram all get some attention!

Marvel gets some negative attention with the Ghost Rider Creator Scandal, but their books aren’t so bad with FF, Fantastic Four, the Ultimate Comics titles, and X-Men being as top notch as ever.

For DC, Paul schools Q on the Teen Titans and tells us his thoughts on the New 52! The boys also pick apart DC’s new logo, discuss Animal Man’s trippy issue #6, dish on the Green Lantern titles, and more!

Happy New Year from the Flame On! crew! We share our New Year’s Nerd Resolutions and get ready for another year of the geekiest, gayest podcast on the net! We are super excited for Orlando MegaCon on February 17-19, so come visit us and say hello! Last episode Eric told us about how he broke a “toy” of his, but luckily Bryan discovered some new DC Legos — just don’t let Eric get his hands on Lego Batman.

Movies

Games

The Question joins the Empire as a Sith Warrior in Star Wars: The Old Republic! This game has taken the gaming community by storm and shocked it with some force lightning, and we share our experiences in BioWare’s new story-based MMORPG!

Mario also makes a splash with the new Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land for the 3DS!

TV

WTF?! A new Super Friends cartoon show with all the campy corniness from the original? The first episode blew us away, and not in a good way. Also, hear the lowdown on Erica Durance as Wonder Woman on Harry’s Law, Kevin Smith’s new reality show about comic book retailers, Star Wars: Underworld, and the chilling American Horror Story season finale!

Gay News

Our city of Orlando gets a shot a a Domestic Partner Registry! The Question learns what Santorum is (listen closely to hear him vomit in the background). And Bryan gives us the deets on a new bear website! Are you a cub, pup, or muscle pig?

Fan Questions

We answer Harry’s question about shaving his body hair to be a smooth twink, while another fan wants some help getting the attention of a big nerd. We were born for questions like this!

Comics

Ed Brubaker’s creepy Fatale series gives us chills! At DC, Midnighter and Apollo get gay in Stormwatch, 5 titles get cancelled, and the company announces 5 new titles to replace them. Meanwhile at Marvel, Avengers vs. X-Men is revving up, Age of Apocalypse gets a new series, and we discuss the latest developments in Avengers: The Children’s Crusade. We discuss all of this and more in this bursting comics segment!
