Springtime is around the corner, and we are hot to trot in the grass, the flowers and the beautiful sunshine! After all the Feast of Fools is the Gay Fun Show that induces mass hysteria, of a hysterical nature. And we just love our flowers.
But before we begin today’s show, I’m a tad scared, since words do have consequences. I mean, did anyone notice how Rosie talked about Anna Nicole and then she died? Then Don Imus talked about ho’s and then Don Ho died? What’s next? One thing we know for sure, we’re not going to be mentioning anything about soft (Lady) Bunnies or glasses of (John) Waters on today’s show. Well, maybe a little. And good luck to you both. We hope you make it a long long time.
Our very own culture vulture John Q Sanchez joins us today to talk about all things good, fruity and fabulous. Like the Muppet Show and Deborah Harry! You know she’s just thinking, “WHAT AM I DOING HERE?”
We weigh in on Got80s thread he started in the Community Forums about gay themed movies. What are some gay themed films that don’t make you cringe?
Lots of talk about Teri Garr, George Takei and John Waters, all past guests of our show. Did you know?
Join our dance off! Send us your YouTube links of your 30 second videos of you getting down, dancing in your best fashion outside of the house to whatever music you like. We’ll be posting most of the videos on the site and having a dance-off in the coming weeks to determine the winner! We’ll lavish you with tons of FOF merchandise and, AND love of love! So get down and boogie.
We love you so much it hurts- Feast of Fools : Gay Fun Show!

April 20, 2007 at 14:43Excellent show, guys. I love when John Q comes on the show. I’m a pop culture junkie (hmmm, maybe that should be ‘pup’ culture, tee hee) and he always has such fun tidbits to share. I remember seeing Debbie Harry on The Muppet Show when it first aired as I was a huge Blondie fan and I just swooned when she sang The Rainbow Connection with Kermit (one of the many clues as a child that I would grow up to be gay).
I have to comment on The Wizard of Oz, though. Have you ever wondered about the Tin Man? I mean, just watch the part where they first meet the giant floating head of the Wizard. He approaches and, in a very fey manner, smiles and says, “well… we were walking down the yellow bring road” and in those two seconds he is more gay than Big Gay Al, Bobby Trendy and Harvey Firestien all put together. Trust me. I wish I could post that on YouTube. It’s really funny.
PupDon says:
April 20, 2007 at 18:39You know, watching that Debbie Harry clip again it does appear as if she’s really stoned. I think Mark is right. “I’m gonna be on the freakin’ muppet show today… hey, let’s get really stoned”. LOL!

April 23, 2007 at 08:13I agree that The Hunger is a great gay-ish movie Mostly because I’m a David Bowie fan…

April 23, 2007 at 21:01Great show! Thanks for the shout-out. Hey Marc, I only sound like I’m telling a secret when I’m gossiping about gay Puerto Rican writers! I’m kinda loud the rest of the time, LOL. xoxo.
