The Feast of Fools is a podcast that simply will not die.Show after show, year after year, we’ve gone from being a drag show at some local gay bar, to a wacky play, a musical varitey show, and now in our latest incarnation, the worlds most downloaded gay podcast.
Just what a “gay” podcast is, I guess is a podcast made by gay people, for eveyrone to enjoy. I see us as ambassadors of taste, culture and opinion on everything that crosses our fruity minds into the hearts and souls of the good people of the world. Almost 300 shows, over 1000 people on our frappr map, over 5000 daily downloads and over 3000 subscriptions on iTunes alone.
The Feast of Fools podcast is a portrait of my friends, my family, and the world I live in. We’re all part of the great big time capsule that the internet is, with all these voices buzzing around. Its humbling and exciting all at the same time.
Join us today as Marc Felion, Amanda Steinstein, and me, Fausto Fernós as we reflect on the ol’ odometer turning round and round, the death of Mexican-American singer Selena, and the new BCC gay re-make of the legendary sci-fi tv show “Dr. Who” or as they call him in Puerto Rico: “Doctor Quien?” Not really.
Note! We ARE NOT planning to do a show at the Hothouse on April 14th. Pictured to the right is a poster from one of our shows done way back in 2001. Check out my Feast of Fools poster gallery of show posters (the ones I’ve been able to find) I’ve made from 1998-2005.
Art. The final frontier of the mind. These are the podcasts made by the Feast of Fools. Our mission: to discover strange new people, to savor what others dare not taste, to foolishly go where others dare not go. (cue in intro music.)
