    Heated Rivalry Has These Gaysians in a Chokehold, with Kevyn Fong

    Shoes off … we’re all coming to the cottage! 🏒 Bao and Chris catch Heated Rivalry fever and bring on Kevyn Fong, the internet’s favorite gaysian comedian, to unpack the viral gay romance series that has gaysian men fully in a chokehold. ⚠️ Spoiler warning: This episode contains major spoilers for the entire first season of Heated Rivalry. This episode is part recap, part group chat, part emotional support session as we dig into the questions that actually matter: How did an aspiring art-school barista end up with a snatched 8-pack? What are the real strategies for getting your Asian mom to apologize? Will this show finally convince a generation of gay men to stop ghosting and try vulnerability and intimacy? Would Shane and Illya ever open their relationship? And… was Rose “Mystique-coded” or are we just projecting? If you watched Heated Rivalry and haven’t emotionally recovered, this episode is for you. Plus, Chris has an important update to share at the end. Follow us at @literallygaysians on Youtube, Instagram and TikTok.
