No one mourns the wicked, but the boys of Flame ON definitely love talking about Wicked things!
Dear listeners, the holiday season is upon us, and Pat, Bryan, BeeJay, and Erik, navigated their hectic schedules so they could all come together to chat about a little move 12 years in the making. Since it was announced in 2012, theater geeks and musical nerds have waited with bated breath to see Elphaba take flight on the big screen. In 2024, the wait ended, and part one of a two-part Wicked film landed in theaters across the world. The boys all ventured to their local cinema to partake in the cultural phenom and are ready to share their thoughts with the world. Kicking off the discussion, the boys dive into the many aspects of the movie that they enjoyed. From there, they tackle the nitpicks of what was less enjoyable and then try to venture a guess at what comes next (or at least what they're excited to see from the musical). Did you see Wicked? Sound off in the comments and let the boys know what you thought about it!

Whether your summer was cruel or brat, we all know that the music that soundtracks our summers is some of the best!
Dear listeners, the boys are back and they are longing for those warm summer days (except Erik because it's warm most days in Florida!), so they've settled at the round table to share their choices for the song of the summer. Whether it was a massive hit on the radio or not, these song selections went platinum in our boys' headphones.
From Tove Lo to Taylor and Childish Gambino to Kesha, the boys are breaking out their CDs and jamming out to the tunes that shaped the summer of 2024 for them. Did any of their selections overlap your songs of the summer, dear listener, or did another artist have your streaming service in a chokehold? Sound off in the comments and let the boys know!

Are you mother, maiden, or crone? The hauntingly delirious minds behind WandaVision are ready to bring us, the viewers, back to Westview as we march on the road to Halloween.
Dear listeners, the boys are back and bucking the tradition of a round-up episode to bring you an extraordinary review instead. Back in 2020, Marvel brought their first (canon to the "Sacred Timeline") television series, WandaVision to Disney+, and now, they are following that series up with a brand new horror-esque miniseries, Agatha All Along. Kathryn Hahn is back as Agatha to make her way out of Wanda's hex and restore her power. With the two-episode premiere released to the public, the boys are ready to share their initial thoughts. Listen in and then share your thoughts with the boys on social media!

The TARDIS has landed and Ncuti Gatwa is here to save the day... or maybe The Doctor is bringing destruction? Could be the same thing depending on the day with the runaway from Gallifrey!
Bryan is back in the host chair for this episode, dear listeners, and BeeJay is joining him to discuss the return of a show near and dear to the Flame ON! show's heart, Doctor Who!
