Every now and then you have one of those golden moments that just make you so happy that you feel golden and everything you touch is shiny and golden.
These moments are rare like the unexpected phone call inviting you to a fabulous event or a card from a long lost love trying to reconnect. For me, I had that golden moment when a received an email asking if I’d like to interview someone who bleaches people’s private parts for a living.
Yes, I’m that easy to please. But that is not all that Enrique of Face to Face NYC spa does. He also offers a full range of beauty treatments and products for men and he talks with us about what you can do to stay fabulous and looking good.
Rick Aiello joins us to talk about all sorts of odd news, celebrity gossip and we revisit Rick’s latest research project.
Poor Ed McMahon! After a bad accident that left him unable to work, the bills have started piling up. He sure could use one of those giant million dollar checks that he use to pass out as pitchman for the American Family Publishers’ sweepstakes.
He even wants to sell his $6.2 million dollar home in Los Angeles to alleviate his financial burden but he’s having problems putting it on the market because he lives so close to tragic superstar Britney Spears. The street is usually littered with paparazzi waiting for the singer to do something crazy.
A group of Australian scientists this week announced a possible new treatment to prevent the spread of HIV in men. What’s it made from? Female hormones. Yeow!
After analyzing tissue samples from men’s foreskins (a hobby many gay men enjoy doing on their own) the researches found that oestriol, an estrogenic compound already found in women’s skin cream blocks entry of the HIV virus by creating what they call a “living condom” by building up superficial layer of cells.
The fascinating thing is the cream used in the study is already being used by millions of women for the last 30 years as a standard treatment for post-menopausal vaginal atrophy. Not sure what that means, but it sounds like it could use a little cream.
The podcast that is so tight, it makes Jocelyn Wildenstein’s face look like a stretched out old trampoline- Feast of Fools.

June 6, 2008 at 05:46Hi all — our colleagues in Australia aligned with the International Rectal Microbicide Advocates are confronting the claims you mention about the creme to prevent HIV. They appear to be completely irresponsible and an example of a shockingly cheap publicity stunt at the expense of seriously confusing the public. This is the same group of researchers who have suggested lemon juice/lime juice might be safe to use as a vaginal microbicide - which is completely false. I will share more when I know - but with this, and any other thing you hear along these lines, be very, very skeptical.

June 6, 2008 at 08:35I have not listened to the podcast yet as I am on my way to work. I hope the spa guy talks about anal bleaching as that is a popular thing here in California.

June 6, 2008 at 09:41Hey guys.. thanks again for having me on the show! It was so much fun, as always!
I’m still a bit confused by this whole anal bleaching thing. Do they bleach the actual anus or your entire ass so that it’s lily white against your tan body? And really what is the purpose of the bleaching?
Otherwise I liked what Enrique had to say, including his offers to do some procedures should you visit New York. Better have that camera ready!!!
I can’t wait for Milwaukee… woo hoo!!!!

June 6, 2008 at 10:24Rick, always great to hear you on the show. Now I want to see pictures of your drag you did a few years ago. Better yet don that wig again for this weekend. You can be one of the Kennedi Monroe back up dancers.
Alexyss K Tylor’s going to teach me about my gay penis and then give me $100. Maybe I could put it toward an anal bleaching.
Robert from work says:
June 6, 2008 at 11:47Often the pigment around the anus is darker. The bleaching is done in that area not the entire buttock. Porn stars have been anal bleaching for years ( to be pretty for the close ups ) but it it now offered in many spas here in California. It is kinda of a rage right now.

June 6, 2008 at 12:10Loved this show! Wished I lived in Chicago to come see you guys in Milwaukeee. 
Robert says:
June 6, 2008 at 17:59Back home from work and listened to the cast. Glad to hear he talked about anal bleaching. if it is happening in LA it is happening in NY.
Fausto they are not liver spots. Is that a term you learned from your mother ? My mom use to have them that also.
Fausto…..I will mail you an entire line to lighten those spots if indeed you truly have them. Let me know. I am in the business ya know…lol
Rickie says:
June 6, 2008 at 21:29I’m gonna go to the spa, but no butt bleaching. A Freshmen facial and alitte waxing sounds like a good plan for now. 
Tracy Tyler says:
June 6, 2008 at 21:58I LOVEEEEEEE RICK!!!! can’t wait to listen to the show!!!! SMOOCH RICK DARLING!!!
sfimporter says:
June 7, 2008 at 10:52Enrique reminds me of the woman behind the Clinique counter. They talk a lot of shit and look pretty. But just because they wear a lab coat doesn’t mean they know what they’re doing.
Pete says:
June 7, 2008 at 16:51the new pic of rick is so cute and he has such a nice voice.
the spa promotional pics are such a rip-off of those dolce & gabbana ads, but that doesn’t stop me from pleasuring myself to them.

June 8, 2008 at 22:26Good show. It was enjoyable to have Rick on and hear his comments. I think I will go to my dermatologist for skin care but the spa sounds good for a nice massage and to feel pampered.

June 9, 2008 at 03:41It still was great fun to meet all the talent backstage even though some celebrities pulled a no video/photos bullshit rule. What I loved most was the HOT HOT HOT after-party at Stir (and a bunch of other places), those guys in Milwaukee know how to make a wet and tired drag queen feel fabulous! LOVE to Josh and Peter. XXXOOO
Rickie says:
