This week, we're talking about the always controversial topic of fixed ship dynamics, particularly within Thai BL 👀

We're diving into what factors are used to determine the dynamics in a ship, how actors discuss and interact with their ship's set dynamic and some instances where those dynamics have subverted stereotypes and expectations.

How do you feel about ship dynamics? Do you have a favorite type of ship dynamic? Share your thoughts with us in the comments down below 👇

Many of the BL series that we know and love are adapted from novels, manga and webtoons! 📚

This week, Kayla and Alexa sit down to discuss what changes when adapting a written material for TV, what makes a good (or bad) series adaptation and the various roles novel authors play in the adaptation process. They also discuss the BL novels they've read and how they felt about the shows compared to the novel!

What's your favorite BL novel? What shows do you think did the best job at adapting the source material? Share your thoughts with us in the comments down below 👇

Is Heated Rivalry a BL? Is BL considered queer media? If not, what DOES make something queer media and who gets to decide those requirements?

These are just a few of the questions we’ve seen floating around throughout the Heated Rivalry craze and all of the discourse that has come with it. In this episode, we’ll be sharing our thoughts on the question of whether BL is queer media or not. We’ll also be talking about the pros and cons of strict division within media and more!
