Flushing Is Burning, Episode 12: Pride Month ends with some good news

There are reasons to be optimistic as June comes to an end. Not about the Mets, though.

Welcome to Flushing is Burning, the latest addition to the Home Run Applesauce family of podcasts, hosted by Grace Carbone and Christian Romo. Flushing is Burning is a weekly podcast examining the Mets, queer issues, and the occasional intersection of the two.

Are the Mets done? Cooked? Finished? Completely hopeless and out of options? Grace and Christian discuss.

They also review some much-needed wins in the LGBTQ+ community, both inside and outside baseball. They also answer a baseball question from Christian’s partner and go over some movies examining the AIDS crisis. This was supposed to be a happy episode, too!

As always, you can listen or subscribe to all of our Home Run Applesauce podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show. It really helps! And you can find us on the Stitcher app, Spotify, or listen wherever you get podcasts.

Visit our Patreon for bonus episodes and to help directly support the podcasters whose work you’ve enjoyed for years, as well as unlock access to exclusive episodes, our Discord server, a monthly playlist, and more.

Social feeds are under construction! In the meantime, you can follow Grace on Twitter at @ODGuitar, and while Christian isn’t going to share his handle, he’s not difficult to find online.

Our theme music is “Positive Pop” by TimTaj (https://timtaj.com).
