Summary: 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. This week, Grace and Christian look over how exactly Mets’ pitching got hot at the same time the offense got cold. There’s reason to be optimistic about this team’s World Series potential, even if the record may not indicate the same. They also talk about comments from Anthony Bass, Clayton Kershaw, and Blake Treinen and wonder what the purpose of an ally can be in MLB. And just when June couldn’t get any worse for MLB, Lou Gehrig Day passed with even less fanfare than Pride.
