BONUS: Heated Rivalry (Season 1) with Ashley Hufford
Shownotes
Jack and Nora are joined by content creator Ashley Hufford to discuss Season 1 of Heated Rivalry. In this episode, Ashley is the queen of hockey romance, Jack takes a break from hating TV, and Nora is emotionally intense (but not at a pathological level). Crack open a ginger ale, stretch out your hip flexors, and let’s hit the ice (/ that ass)!
Topics include:
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer
- Jacob Tierney’s respect for the romance genre
- Sexting
–
Mysteries we still haven’t solved:
- Will the industry finally take the right lesson from Heated Rivalry’s success???
- Will the chokehold this show has on us ever loosen? (We do not ever want this problem to ever go away.)

Spoiler Alert: This episode discusses all of Season 1, plus a few light spoilers from the Game Changers book series (Game Changer, Heated Rivalry, Role Model, The Long Game). It does not, however, contain spoilers for Joker: Folie à Deux (2024).
