Boy oh boy, wondering about the Boise Boys designer Luke.

Happened to catch an episode of the home reno show Boise Boys, and I was, shall we say, somewhat mystified by co-host designer Luke. Apparently married, six kids, four of them adopted with special needs, home schooled. Based on those facts, you'd assume some kind of fundy-dad type, but boy oh boy, does Luke sound and look as gay as floral wallpaper. So what's his story? Does anybody know? And if you don't know, care to speculate?

I agree, but there's that family - hard to refute it.

Uh, is the name of the show a clue? A pretty overt reference to the I famous 1955 Boise Boys gay sex scandal?

Is he on the left or right?

Shes as gay as an Easter bonnet and the fat one is skeezy as fuck. He gives off fat pedo vibes big time. I dont care if that queen fucks pussy 3 times a day,hes as gay as a goose.

Luke sort of reminds me of Shuga Cain from Drag Race.

He's VERY religious. Insta pic of a rainbow with #Godspromise.

I'm guessing Luke & the wife are another "We fell in love in conversion therapy" couple.

What a fresh, imaginative idea for a reality show. It truly is the new golden age of television.

Hilarious, HGTV actually has a full 'apologia' on why you need to love this show. It holds our hand through the episode and tells us exactly which saccharine heart-warming moments are supposed to make us go aww and how to properly fall in love with the show.

For example: "Clint and Luke are all about their families... Luke takes his son Tucker with him to shop for tile. And both Boise Boys bring their boys to help build the treehouse. It’s heartwarming to watch Clint’s sons help Luke’s younger sons hammer in nails."

Aww!! My heart just exploded <3! And yes R6, if it's a thing, the hefty one has 'pervface'.

I'm watching it for the first time at this very moment. I cannot lie, I was surprised to see Luke was married with a big family. Both of them seem like nice guys.

everybody is unique. I dont know that they shove their born again crap down the viewers throats quite as nauseatingly as the Gaines of fixer up fame..................or infamy? The skinny one seems like a nice harmless guy, leave it alone.

This couple isn't half as annoying as that Pushy-Philipino-Bitch or the painfully-squeaky-voiced-Barbie-Doll-with-bald-husband or the Ancient-Texan-Hags.

They arent a "couple" R14. They are allegedly straight. Though I swear Ive seen the skinny one prancing around the bath house in leather nazi gear calling herself Dwan Wand !

I just started watching this show. It certainly seems to gear to catch a gay audience. The title alone, reminiscent of the scandal. The boys' outfit (clothes and hair cut) have definitely been selected from gay instagram. Then the editing: One shrieking all the time while the other is accusing him of "being drama". Not sure if they're really gay. But the gay angle is certainly more than accidentally played up.

The one on the right is SEX ON A STICK!!!!

He's as gay as the floral display at a same-sex wedding!

We have talked about him in the HGTV thread(s).

He definitely breaks my gaydar - Hipster, or Gay?

Is the one on the right special needs?

Ugh, I didn't know Clint was on the Apprentice

The skinny one in an ex gay conversionist. God you would think HGTV would vet these people

R23 Are you certain on that?

I thought it was that his minister father was involved in that bullshit or something. There was a controversy about it when the show came out.

The skinny one is a flaming homosexual and the fat, Downs-looking one is a typical reality show grifter. Case closed.

The fat one's sons are all blond and cute. So was he in pictures when he was younger, not sure what happened

It's called flyover aging disease, R26.

I think they do vet these people and intentionally hire them. I think they are aiming for the fundie audience. Maybe because they watch television more often?

r28, then they really hit the jackpot with this casting. They lure in the fundie and the gay community at the same time. These guy's interaction plays exactly into the dynamic that I find so funny in House Hunters (International) when the straight couple so clearly has a flaming husband. Sometimes that's the only interesting thing in an episode.

Closeted or not, I like both guys. In a different way I find them quite inspiring. Be they openly gay or not, they both ooze a genuine positive attitude that I can appreciate. And the designs they deliver usually is pretty appealing to me.

HGTV has that weird fundie layer, for sure.

Its HQ moved some years ago to Tennessee and they have a few fundie stars, including Chip and Jo and that couple from Fixer to Fabulous. And Luke Caldwell of Boise Boys.

But they also have a big gay audience, too.

Let me barf a few times before I leave this unnecessary thread. My mind should be used to wonder about better looking men.

I enjoy seeing these queeny straight guys on TV--reminds the straights that not all straight men are butch and that not all gay men are femme.

Luke has been around a cock before, I'm willing to bet on it

Boishe Boysh! Musht-she teevee!
