This week’s guest is a content creator who is known for the best pop culture recs. We spoke to Francis about his viral sports bar videos, what Hollywood should be learning from Heated Rivalry’s success, and everything he’s hoping for in season two.

Highlights of the week include: reaction videos, Club 90s (we are nothing if not predictable), and Maybe Happy Ending!

Being a professional fangirl is the dream, and Kaia is truly living it. As a host and DJ for Club 90s, she’s currently touring the East Coast for Heated Rivalry nights. We talk about her day-to-day, her favorite moments from the shows, and why this is one night you absolutely need to experience for yourself.

Plus, our Heated Rivalry highlights of the week: fandom career launches, Hollanov kisses, narrative analyses, and Cowboy Shane (iykyk).

If you're an HR fan, you know editors are the backbone of the fandom. We were very lucky to speak with Margaux aka sosaneitsinsane, on many topics including their famous Google Drive edit, seeing their edits on big screens around the world, and the importance of depicting queer desire.

Plus, our Heated Rivalry highlights of the week: Wonderland photoshoot, SNL, & lookalike contests.

This week, we're joined by the people's princess, Naomi aka frenchnbookish, to talk about her Heated Rivalry wallpaper empire, creativity, and why the romance genre never lets us down.

Plus, our Heated Rivalry highlights of the week: Milan Fashion Week, Jesse Kortuem, Club90s, and Hudson's skincare routine.

Hey....HeeeeeEEEEEyyyyyy. In our first episode, we share how Heated Rivalry came across our desk, why we are obsessed, and what we hope this space is for the fandom.

We are glad you're here!
