Osaka Hernandez had a huge following in Japan. If Selena was the “Madonna” of Tejano music, then Osaka was considered to be the “Cyndi Lauper.” Okay Osaka was a fabulous drag queen and never sang any conjunto music, but it makes a great introduction, doesnt it?

On todays show, our lovely New York City pal John Q Sanchez talks about his former life as Osaka Hernandez, his years of experience writing about weddings, chocolate fountains, open bars, and his fascination with Shelley Long’s movie “Troop Beverly Hills.”

Pictured on the right is the “Tippi Headren” wedding dress that John talked about on the show. For those of you who want to see the obscene cotton candy-chocolate fountain pics, click here.

Although our Meet N’ Greet is officially on Thursday April 13th from 7-9pm at the Starlight Bar, we’re planning to attend the night before the ThisisAdam queer networking cocktail hour, and then heading on to RUNT to hang out with short gay men. Runt is being promoted as a “gay night for short queer men and their admirers.” John says that tons of female to male trannies hang out at this event (since they are naturally short guys themselves.) Will we see you there?

The podcast that never sleeps- Feast of Fools.
