SJ and Kay kick off 2026 by diving headfirst into the steamy world of hockey romance, fresh off SJ's binge of HBO's Heated Rivalry - the Critics' Choice-nominated adaptation of Rachel Reid's queer M/M powerhouse. Honorary Hockey Mom Kay gives a hockey crash course (complete with a brutal quiz on shifts, sticks, and glove-dropping consent), SJ talks beautifully cast leads like Connor Sherry and Hudson Williams, and both do real-talk on why the show's rosy romance clashes with hockey's zero-out NHL reality. From heart-melting on-ice proposals to critiques of locker-room homophobia (shoutout to trailblazer Brock McGillis), the gals talk why straight women love gay sports smut, recommend must-reads like Mile High by Liz Tomforde and The Deal by Elle Kennedy, and ponder hotter adaptations for curvy heroines, throuples, and beyond-hockey vibes (hello, pickleball and rowing?). Plus, a nod to why all sports are low-key homoerotic. Grab your "I Hope Both Teams Have Fun" sweatshirt for 45 minutes of cognitively offloading in a terrible world.
