82 | Heated Rivalry: The TV MM Romance Making the Whole Internet Thirsty
Description
Heated Rivalry has arrived, and the FDSM household is officially in its Hockey Butt Era! Andrea Jones joins Nikki & Meg to dive into the first two episodes of the MM hockey romance adaptation turning the internet into a collective thirst trap.
They break down:
* Why the timeline jumps feel like surprise math homework
* Shane’s micro-expressions, panic spirals, and inability to say “dildo”
* Ilya as a consent king (and whether he gets “soft” too early)
* The All-Star bench flirting, room 1221, and the pec-grab heard round the world
* The accidental cuck chair and the cursed water-balloon intimacy garments
Come for the rivalry. Stay for the lighting crimes and the hockey butts.
