We’re in Las Vegas! A city full of bright lights, slot machines, lavish shows and tacky things everywhere. A great place to visit, but being surrounded by so many people gambling the night away on slot machines and roulette wheels makes me panic a little. Like the end of the world is near.

Las Vegas would be the last place I would want to be caught fighting off zombies in a total apocalypse scenario. But, alas, here we are at a conference full of podcasters.

Thankfully we ran into the delightful talk show host Meredith Medland of the Living Green podcast. The show’s motto is “effortless ecology for everyday people.”

On her weekly podcast Meredith talks extensively about the psychology of the ecology and why we are “going green” all of a sudden. She talks to not only environmentalists and eco-friendly types, but also to fatalists, those people who are preparing for the collapse of Western civilization and the end of the world as you and I know it. Yeow!

She spent a lot of time with people who build bomb shelters, own guns and stockpile enough preserved food to feed themselves for a good year. Needless to say Meredith is getting a little anxious listening to these people talk in detail about why the world might go poof in a blink of an eye.

Good thing our gal knows Hapkido! Meredith says she can kick herself out of a handgun, and we believe her.

Listen as we talk to Meredith about her red carpet interviews with Will Smith, Al Gore and how Oscar nominee Sienna Miller feels in her body when preparing for those sexy love scenes.

New study shows the pill may affect what kind of a man a woman is attracted to. Woman who take the pill are more likely to choose a mate that has similar DNA to their won. This may result in difficulties getting pregnant or miscarrying. Woman who don’t take the pill are equally attracted to both men who are and who are not similar to them genetically. Why do we as gay men care about the pill and its effects? Well, if there is a pill that will make Pavel Novotny attracted to me, I want to know about it!

One of the owner’s of Manhunt was outed as a hard core republican because he gave money to John McCain’s campaign. The money has since been to Obama and the man has resigned but the popular gay dating site (by date, we mean hook up) is in the middle of a big controversy as to how we reconcile someone’s political leanings and our values as gay people. Do we boycott the company because someone in leadership doesn’t share our values or do we just take the product as is?

Jeff Whitty, the gay author of the hit Broadway show Avenue Q probably never heard of Adam Hinton and Kerry Norris when he wrote the song lyrics that allows you to be “as loud as the hell you want when you are making love.” Well, as it turns out, you can’t be loud as the hell you want when you’re making love, at least not in the U.K. This happy couple were so loud in their lovemaking that the neighbors got a restraining order against Adam and he can longer visit his lover’s home.

Savor the flavor- Feast of Fools.
