Jim Bennet is back!Only 25 days until the country elects Barak Obama as president! Okay, so I’m an optimist.

On today’s show Jim Bennet, the funny man from GayCo, Second City’s gay offspring comes to dish it up about politics.

They’re teaming up with Schadenfreude, another local sketch comedy group to put together a sizzling new show “This Country is F$cked,” an evening of election-themed comedy, music and videos.

Listen as we talk with Jim about dragging his comedian friends out of the closet, his thoughts on Sarah Palin wanting to play Tina Fey and White People for Obama.

Bubba the Transgendered CatBubba the tranny cat! Desperate pet owners turn to a pet psychic to better understand their finicky feline’s anti-social behavior, then were told that Bubba hisses at strangers because he is really a she! Now, they are trying to raise money to give their tranny tabby a sex change.

Mr. Gay UK 1993 Anthony Morley and his alleged victim Damian OldfieldThe hunky cannibal and former Mr Gay United Kingdom Anthony Morley is on trial for what he had for supper. He is accused of killing Damian Oldfield and then frying him up with some olive oil and spices.

Queen Latifah doesn’t care that you think she’s gay, even though she probably is, allegedly. Maybe. Kinda. Whatever!

A British man terrorizing the public and police in riot gear while skinny dipping in a moat at the Emperor’s castle in Japan. Why are people so afraid of a naked, chubby old bald guy? Oh, yeah, he looks like Golem from Lord of the Rings.

Google now offers a e-mail virtual breathalyzer to keep people from sending angry emails when they are drunk- the new service is called “Mail Goggles.”

Plus- art abuse, Kurt Cobain’s stolen ashes smoked in a spliff and Diane Von Furstenburg’s wonder woman inspired fashion.

More fruits and nuts than a bowl of breakfast cereal- Feast of Fools.

    I was one of those twisted kids with a pet tarantula and till this day I simply thought I was allergic to it-never knew about the venom in the fur. (Thanks FOF for the unintentional PSA!) I used to pet mine and let it crawl on me until I broke out in hives- the day before I got my first driver’s license picture taken. Every time I got carded for anything I was reminded of that stupid pet.

    Give Bubba some poppers. She’ll deal.

    I sure hope Georgia goes blue. Clinton won GA in his first term but this has been a red state every election after that. Dole won this state during Clinton’s second run and George W. the last two. It also sucks because GA is an all or nothing state. Which means whoever wins the state gets all 15 Electoral Votes. Right now we are leaning McCain.
    But I am hopeful because I see more and more Obama signs and bumper stickers. Hell, my conservative, gun loving mamma is even a hardcore Obama supporter.

    Scott, Marc and Fausto,

    Thanks for discussing the No on 8 campaign. While it directly affects us in California in the end it affects us all. thanks again!

    Regarding the imperial palace and your question about japan, here’s a brief summary of Tokyo, Edo, and Kyoto:

    The chinese characters for Kyoto are Capital (kyo) and Metropolis (to). Kyoto was the original capital of Japan. At the time Tokyo was known as Edo. The imperial family moved the capital from Kyoto to Edo. When they did this they changed the name to Tokyo. The chinese characters for Tokyo are East (to) and kyo (capital, same kyo as kyoto). so there you have it. capital and east capital.
