Russian-born rock star Lena on the Feast of Fools podcastThe story of Lena’s life reads like pages of a pulp fiction novel with drama, intrigue, a music career and time spent in prison for being wrongly accused as a Russian spy by her husband for leaving him.

Welcome to Lena, population fabulous.

Lena’s a Russian-born rock musician who lives in our neighborhood of Andersonville and runs her own clothing line “Thank You For Your Sex” which sells military inspired designs emblazoned with the words “Thank You For Your Sex.” Of course.

On today’s show Lena comes over to talk about her catchy song “Goodbye” which she wrote after a terrible date where the guy wouldn’t buy her dinner after she had sex with him. The nerve.

Marc and Lena dress up as spiesMarc loves her European quirkiness, she’s like the Russian Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and Annie Lenox rolled into a delicious bisexual rock-star. She also manages to work references to Myspace messages into her song lyrics. What’s not to love?

Lena is offering $5,000 cash prize for the BEST video to her song “Goodbye.” So far she’s had quite a few contestants and some of them are pretty good. You have until July 18, 2008 to enter.

We are wondering if the internet is the new public stockade. Two boys were convicted of throwing a soft drink through a fast food drive through window as a prank were forced to apologize on youtube for their actions. The boys had stupidly posted the prank on the internet and the judge thought that it would only be fitting to make the punishment match the crime. We can see this becoming a new trend: if you do a crime and post it on the internet and get caught, you’ll have to apologize on the internet as well.

Listen as we talk with Lena about the month she spent in jail in Wisconsin, why men should pay for dinner if the girl gives the sex and her friend’s band, ANJ Kill’s video that features a supersized Gorbachev fighting off Stalinist zombies.

We also recorded a simulcast of LENA’S reaction to the infamous 2girls1cup video, a video which actor George Clooney calls a “visual rodeo” where the game is to see how long you can last. If you watch the end of the video you can see Lena about to puke a little, otherwise she carries on befitting a stone cold master spy that she allegedly may be.

The podcast that thanks you for your sex- Feast of Fools.

Great show as usual. St Petersburg is on my list of places to see before I die.

I love the whole “Prison” (”jail”) back and forth that ya’ll had.

I think the point is that if you are imprisoned, it means you were tried and convicted and sent to prison as a result of the sentencing. If you are Jailed… you are under suspicion but you haven’t been convicted of anything (or you are sleeping something off).

Thank you for your song Lena! It’s funny how little she reacted to the two girls one cup video, like she had seen worse. Keep on rocking me girlfriend!

Loved Lena, I love her infectious laugh and how you guys tried to get her to talk like Pavel Novotny.

Multi-pass!

I like your attempt at Rusina. The bI needed some work, but you did good. This show made me miss my Russian cousins

What an awesome guest! Favorite… lucky #777

ok, there is a very creepy breathing around min. 3 and it seems to actually whisper a word around 3:40

it seems to be Lena’s voice but it speaks for itself!

creepy

I don’t hear it… is there a ghost in the machine?

la verdad esta allá afuera fausto…

the truth is out there..

Me and my Friend from Latvia(Vineta) really enjoyed this show.. her accent, voice,laugh and looks are so close to Lena that she totally identified with her.
Thanks guys!!! for bringing so much positive energy not only to me, but my friends and so many people that enjoy the show.
Love you!!

Loved the Lena interview. Great show. So great that Glen and I listened to it twice! I love that Lena has such a great sense of humor and can laugh off being jailed as a spy and is such a good sport she watched 2 girls and a cup for you guys.

I loved her laugh!

Also, when none of you guys seemed to understand what the other was saying - that was fun for me.

the song still holds up a week later for me. Goodbye! Goodbye!
