Let's Talk BL

What can we say, peer pressure works on us sometimes. After so many requests, we're reliving the BL masterclass in love and loss with History 3: Make Our Days Count. We're talking about why Wayne Song is the only man that could make us love Hao Ting, how the best scene in the entire series features our boy Alfred Sng, and why you should always (always) just cook without the salt.   Be our Gan...

Two of our favorite BL creators and best friends Robbie and Trevor are here to help us celebrate Pride! We're talking all things BL - and what it means to them, their journeys, what it's like to be a male creator, and so much more. Tea is spilled, and we finally learn why Robbie is the original Dome Defender (would it even be a LTBL episode if we didn't bring up You're My Sky at least once?!). &nb...

This week's Series Sunday is black tie required. We're talking every single hilarious, important, moving, and adorable moment in the show that (finally) gave us the KaownahTurbo that we deserve. Not only is this series beautifully made, it's also amazingly funny, perfectly timed, and now it's even internationally available. And yes, Ayla is literally wearing a wedding dress in this episode.  ...

Allow us to introduce you to your new favorite boys: the kids of P'Stufe. THE Suar, oh, my God - Markpoom, and the cutest ghost hopeful First are here to make some chaotic magic. We're playing a brand new game that requires the losers to sing (and therefore we all win), talking about the cute boys that could have been, and finding out all of their secrets in the kitchen. We even get special appear...

One year and 49 Series Sunday episodes in we're talking about our favorite Series Sunday episodes, which opinions we stand by, which opinions have changed, and some behind the scenes stories from the guests of Series Sunday.   Thank you for sticking with us for a whole year, we love you!

This week we're throwing some love to all of the moms, dads, and grandmas that make BL great. Pete's dad (Dark Blue Kiss), Thun's mom (He's Coming To Me), and so many more. We're also reminiscing about the birth of Let's Talk BL - we've officially been on the air for one whole year! From our favorite interviews to some of our silliest behind the scenes moments. We, of course, couldn't forget the r...

Talk about risking death for love. Dear Doctor I'm Coming For Soul has, in our professional (sometimes) opinion, cemented itself as the best supernatural BL series made. Dr. Prakan, Tua Phee, and of course Kheeta (aka a soul reaper...with a hat) make us feel all of the feelings and we're talking about every single one. From all of the death, to the soap opera level dramatics, this is an A+ watch....

Whether you cried for them in Grey Rainbow or are solidly Team Soul Reaper in Dear Doctor I'm Coming For Soul (or both), you definitely want to listen to all 79 minutes of this week's episode. Nut and Karn are here to answer all of our burning questions including: how to pronounce HYBS, whether or not Nut actually spoiled Dear Doctor I'm Coming For Soul on IG, what it's like to be in a (boy)band,...

We hope you love sweet as sugar relationships, intense cocktail opinions, and top-notch friendships because this week we're talking all things La Cuisine. And dare we say - it might be the most chaotic Series Sunday in LTBL history because we are joined by the best La Cuisine girl friend (and our new best friend) Momo! She schools us on Thai cocktails, shares the best behind the scenes story we've...

La Cuisine is one of the wildest rides in BL, and just like our love for this series, the plot went from zero to 100 in a snap. We have...so many questions. The show's stars, Pop and Mick, are two of the sweetest boys in BL, and they're talking all things LukChub & P'Ram, making friends on set, fast food (and fancy food), and more. Is this the cutest episode in LTBL history?   Comment, li...

You knew it was coming - we're finally talking about the best little 8 episode series this year. With all of the nostalgia of the original college BL tropes with an updated twist and a super fun cast, this show has comfort BL written all over it. From the freshy boy contest to everyone fighting over DaoNuea (duh), it's just good, old-fashioned fun. And it's Joong & Dunk. I mean, come on. Joong...

We love the boys, but the girls are taking center stage this week. We're talking all about female characters in BL - the best and the worst...and a whole lot more.

Oh you like a good beach frolic? What if we told you that you could watch a full-beach-frolic series? Oh, and you get the BL debut of Holland, one of our favorite k-pop idols plus the return of Han GiChan. And it's a foodie BL. Honestly, how many more reasons do we need to list to get you on board with this one?! Win one of THREE Raikan FanCon Concert Livestream Passes! Giveaway Details: - Open to...

We first met her in Dark Blue Kiss and Friend Zone 2, and truly fell in love with her as Pan in (you guessed it) You're My Sky. Apple Lapisara is so much more than an actress - she's also a director, a singer, a rollerskater, a Once and so much more. And we loved talking about all of it. What else is there to say? Apple is a legend. Watch Apple's most recent MV directorial work here: https://youtu...

The secret's out: we love Secret Crush On You. From the garbage oranges, to the most fun beach frolic, to the emotional depth and character development, this show really delivers.

We can't wait to see you in The Philippines! We're dishing all of the details for the Raikan FanCon happening in Manila August 26-28. As Official Media Partners of the FanCon, we were still absolutely surprised by the lineup (54! 54 boys!). Find out who we're most excited to see, what we'll be doing, and the food we'll be hunting down. As always things devolve into chaos and somehow spin into k-po...

It's the Series Sunday that Ayla has been waiting for since Season 1 - we're finally talking 2gether. Hands down one of the most influential BLs in the GMMTV lineup, and the series that began the BL journey for so many people. It's got the best friends, the worst friends, the most frustrating boy, and the most straightforward boy. And what might just be the best scene in BL.   Grab merch now...

We're seeing stars this week with two boys that kept everyone entertained throughout Safe House & hooked us in EP1 of their debut series as a duo, Joong & Dunk. We talk Dunk's modeling days, Joong's studious ways, the quick friendship they found with each other, and so much more. Get ready for the most contagious laughter you've ever experienced. Sugar. Coated. Sugar.   Watch Star In...

It's a Series Sunday first: a Western series! We're talking Charlie, Nick (the ultimate boy), rugby, healthy communication, tropes, and of course the lads. In the words of Headmaster Barnes: "...it's finally time for you to sit back and watch some teenagers crash into each other and fall over repeatedly. ... Now, can someone explain the rules of rugby to me again, please. It seems to make no sense...

There are a lot of questions we have when we first get into BL...and even now, if we're honest. One of those questions is how exactly nicknames work in Thai - after more than a year of learning nickname after nickname, we're finally diving into the cultural aspects of Thai nicknames, and talking about all of the overlapping boys (and how we tell them apart in a conversation or on the TL).   S...

This week we’re getting formal with The Tuxedo, and it’s absolute chaos from start to finish. So much drama in way, way, too little time. We’re talking Chap & Green’s ability to keep this show grounded without sacrificing any of the tropes that we know and love, the undying love we now have for Tape Worrachai, and of course, the turtle storyline. It’s just so good. Grab merch now at http://sho...

In an episode full of special appearances, Episode 215 was originally slotted to be a conversation with the man we all know as Dr. Bright in Together With Me, Porsch Apiwat. Things quickly turn into a family affair with Kiddy and Arm joining the conversation, and we couldn't be more excited to share it. We talk Thai pronunciation, why it's great that everyone hates Dr. Bright (except Arm), what's...

This week on Series Sunday we're talking about the show that has divided casual BL fans and babiis alike - Theory of Love. Some think it's a classic, a must watch. Some would rather skip it. Most people think Khai is the worst. Some people don't (hint, it's Ayla). One thing we can all agree on: no one cries like Gun.   Grab merch now at http://shop.letstalkbl.com   Comment, like & su...
