Jason McVicker, Director of Mental Health Services for the Center on Halsted talks about some gay men's unhealthy obsession with female celebritiesI love my divas, but I don’t have any friends. If you find yourself asking this question, have we got a show for you!

Joining us on today’s podcast is Jason McVicker, Director of Mental Health Services for the Center on Halsted -the Midwest’s largest GLBT community center. Besides providing daily help to many gays in need, Jason lectures on Opera. Jason is a man who loves his divas.

But for some gay men who suffer Diva Dissociative Trauma or DDT life isn’t always a beautiful aria. They avoid healthy relationships with their own peers and instead lose themselves in the works of powerful female celebrities.

It will be okay.When does our love for our divas interfere with our daily living? What are the warning signs that diva worship has gone too far?

Jason brings some insights into many of the mental health issues gay men face and some simple steps you can take to find help.

We also talk about a broad range of mental health issues and the brutal killing of 14 year old high school student Lawrence King. We discuss how to talk to young people about the brutal murder?

More on why you should vote for Barak Obama or is that Hillary Clinton?

Speaking of divas, stick around to the end of the show where we share with you some up to the minute Cher plastic surgery gossip.

We love our divas but more importantly, we love you! The podcast that brings out the sassy diva in you- Feast of Fools.

Jackie Jaeger talks about planning your perfect partySo now that you’ve fought for your right to party, and earned that right, what are you going to do?

On today’s show- party planner extraordinaire Jackie Jager, co-owner of the events and dining company Voon De Var talks about how to have a fabulous party with all your friends!

Don’t just run out and call everyone, Jackie tells us that you have to be mindful about who you invite and how they will interact at your party. I’m of the Latin school “everybody’s welcome until the police arrive,” while Jackie takes on a more controlled approach and examines the different kinds of party you can have.

We just love you guys! A toast from Marc and Fausto.But what do you do if you just don’t want to invite that certain someone to your party, like your boss, but you have to? Jackie shares with us some ideas on how to half-invite someone to your party so they don’t’ want to come. We’d love to hear some feedback from you, the listener, on how you half-invite someone.

Pick a signature cocktail. Just a simple Piña Colada, a Long Island or a Rum Punch can lend your party with a unique personality which will instantly give your guests something to talk about to break the ice. It will also free up the bartender’s time and make pondering what to drink less of a hassle.

Playing twister with porn starsFor a good time, don’t overlook retro games from the 1950’s like Twister or Pass the Orange. Since party games are pretty cheesy, why not choose some that hark back to simpler times and also give you an excuse to touch each other? Once a good idea always a good idea.

One party we want to fully invite you to, no half-invites here, is the Reveal Party for Amanda’s new look on Thursdya July 24th from 5-8PM at Green Dolphin Street. Come see Amanda Steinstein as you’ve never seen her before as we celebrate and react to the transformation, courtesy of TLC’s hit reality tv show “What Not To Wear.” be the first to gawk at Amanda’s new look!

Tiny Fish Clean Woman’s FootAmanda may be getting her own beauty makeover but would you consider having little fish give you a pedicure?

The garra rufa fish, commonly known as Doctor Fish will nibble the dead skin off your feet to remove callouses at a salon in Washington D.C. The fish don’t have teeth so they can’t harm live skin. Some people describe the sensation as “ticklish.” I’m pretty intrigued by the process, Marc thinks it’s pretty gross.

Chinese Twin CouplesA Chinese Restaurant in the town of Yiwu, releases the secret to their success and no, it’s not robots, it’s identical twins working double shifts! Customers couldn’t figure out how one couple could keep their restaurant going 24 hours a day without sleep. The secret to their success is that the restaurant is run by two sets of identical twins.

Credit Card MachineAn Israeli Wedding Hall is now offering it’s guests the option to leave money for the bride and groom using credit cards. The machines will transfer money to the bride and groom’s account and will issue you a deposit slip that you can place with a card in an envelope. It’s easy, it’s fast but maybe just a bit crass.

Estelle GettyAnd in passing- campy actress Estelle Getty. famous for playing the wise cracking Sophia Petrillo on the TV sitcom “Golden Girls” died yesterday at the age of 84.

A longtime champion of gay rights and HIV/AIDS, Estelle Getty played Harvey Fierstein’s mother in the Broadway show “Torch Song Trilogy!” She suffered from Lewy Body Dementia but was misdiagnosed earlier as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. In 2006 she issued a statement through her caregiver about her condition: “Estelle would like you all to know that if she’s made you laugh, encouraged you to think, and challenged your beliefs, then she has done her job.” Thank you for being a friend, Estelle.

Always golden- Feast of Fools.

Gigi’s back boys! Our deluxe and delovely club-kid turned mother of two and visual artist is starting a new art group in Chicago, the Salon des Artistes IndĂ©pendants.

Gigi Deluxe's New LookGigi’s back boys! Our deluxe and delovely club-kid turned mother of two and visual artist is starting a new art group in Chicago, the Salon des Artistes IndĂ©pendants.

Gigi and other artists decided to come together to form the Salon to produce a gallery effect that wasn’t tethered to a certain theme or limited in scope. The Salon des IndĂ©pendants is basically a fancy French word for an outsider artist collective.

Gigi and her friends are sick of being told that their art is great but that it “really isn’t what we had in mind” by gallery owners so they mounted this first event.

She's in the pink- Gigi DeluxeIt is by invitation only so the only way you are going to get an invite is if you email us and we plead your case to Gigi. She’s tough and she doesn’t want you drinking all her PBR, so be convincing of your love for art and we’ll see what we can do. I can’t make any promises though.

gigi-transition.gif

Are you looking at these wonderful pictures Fausto took of Gigi? She really is a supermom model. Gigi is so creative that she took one of our Digitally Delicious t-shirts and made a wonderfully tight-fitting black dress out of it. Hot!

Her daughter hates when she shaves her head but we think she is so lovely bald. Now, her daughter doesn’t really mind that her mom shaves her head, she just likes it when she wears a wig on it.

America, the U.S. Space Program needs your help! NASA is asking it’s visitors to the Houston Space Center to donate samples of their urine to help test out a new type of space toilet. This is kind of embarrassing. I’m sure in intergalactic space that aliens are laughing at us. Come on, Mars’ slogan after all is “Mars Needs Women” and ours is “Earth Needs Pee.” in reality though, nothing is like pee except pee. Pee has certain qualities that just can’t be reproduced so if they are going to get space toilets to work properly, they have to use the right stuff.

Billy Bass- the famous karaoke singing fishIt seems fish are all over the news these days. Scientists have found that most animals (including our own species) ability to communicate using sound draws its origins to the grunts and chirps made by fish! The neural network that forms our speech center was created millions and millions of years ago. Even today some fish still use grunts to attract a mate.

Meanwhile in New York, one fish was taking this talking thing a bit to far. A talking carp predicted the end of the world. A fish that was destined for the knife proclaimed in Hebrew that the end was nigh and that now was the time to repent. Oy veh! The fish mongers didn’t take heed of the vociferous carp and it ended up becoming the Jewish delicacy gefilte fish. It could be worse.

Catfish walking down the street is not an everyday occurrence but it’s not unheard of in Florida. A woman saw a catfish trudging across her street and thought it was odd but then she looked further on and saw some thirty catfish emerging from the sewer, cross the street and kept on moving. The catfish used their dorsal fin to propel them much like we use our legs.

So there we have it, our speech, our fear of the almighty and the ability to walk all come from fish.

The voice inside your head that tells you to go for it- Feast of Fools.

Man, I feel like crap. Since last week, I’ve been fighting this truly awful 100.5 fever and I’m crossing my fingers that it isn’t anything serious. It’s been pretty awful.

I'm sickMan, I feel like crap. Since last week, I’ve been fighting this truly awful 100.5 fever and I’m crossing my fingers that it isn’t anything serious.

It’s been pretty awful. Shaking terribly through the night, painful fevers and complete loss of appetite. Feed a fever, my butt! Here’s another reason why our Health Care System needs an overhaul.

Seeing a doctor, blood tests and medicine, $450 total. And this is the cheaper version. Thankfully we ran into our sexy friend, Chicago Dragons poster boy and fierce Sister of Perpetual Indulgence John Brosan, who always makes me quickly forget about my boo boos.

Marc Felion and Jane LynchMeanwhile, Marc Felion and our friend Michael Lehet went over to HRC’s Annual Gala “Summer Chic” to primarily stalk the guest of honor, openly lesbian comedian Jane Lynch and of course to support the advancement of gay rights.

Jane’s well known for her appearances in the great comedy films “A Mighty Wind,” “40-Year Old Virgin” and “Space Chimps.” The nice thing about these charity galas, is that the celebrities they hire to show for them CAN’T leave. You can just take as many pictures of them as you like, and they can’t run away from you!

Thankfully, Marc and Jane hit it off and managed to pose together for this wonderful photo. Click here to see more photos from the event.

One nice thing you get to do when you’re sick at home is to watch lots and lots of reality TV. After participating in “What Not to Wear” I’m amazed more than ever on how many hours of shooting, writing and editing it takes to make one hour of a TV show.

Hulk Hogan File PhotoWhat they really are is mini-documentaries. One particularly unusual show I caught was a spin-off of Hulk Hogan’s reality show “Brooke Knows Best” which focuses on Brook Hogan, the daughter of the 1980s wrestling celebrity Hulk Hogan, pretty much doing nothing.

On last weeks show Hulk Hogan (who still looks huge) sat down with her openly gay roommate, choreographer Glenn Packard, to talk about just how “gay” he was.

Glenn’s worked for the likes of N’Sync, Michael Jackson and Liza Minelli. The man’s resume is gay.

Needless to say, Hulk needed to let the viewers of the TV show (all three of us) about how gay friendly he was. “Some of my best wrestler friends are gay.” Which made me realize this is probably the first time he’s publicly acknowledged the sexuality of his famous TV co-stars.

So who’s gay? Randy Macho Man Savage? The Iron Sheik? Andre the Giant (rest in peace)? That’s a whole lot of gay.

Listen as we talk about La Pequeña’s new video as the Chilean Subway Goddess, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, and the recently found conjoined birds.

La Pequena is now the Subway Goddess Neil Patrick Harris in Dr. Horrible Conjoined Birds Found Pitvertising

We all know that advertising works, especially on podcasts like this one, but a London ad agency is about to expand the realm of advertising into men’s armpits.

Pittvertising. Digital TV screens built into the armpits of hot men’s shirts draw attention on subways, marketing deodorants and other male-body related goods.

Now if condom or underwear manufacturers could do crotchvertising. I’d buy whatever they were selling!

A Feast of Fools a day helps you work, rest and play.

Chicago drag queen Frida Lay talks about her success on the Feast of Fools podcastRicardo Avila came to the US to pursue a career as a school teacher, but years later ended up as one of Chicago’s most popular drag queens, Frida Lay.

On today’s show, the delightful Frida joins us to talk about her unexpected career as one of Chicago’s most entertaining drag queens.

Although Frida is now one of Chicago’s most sought out performers, she thinks she’s a phony and not a real drag queen. Why does she think she has no act? I think her simple charm and calm demeanor help her stand apart from the crowd and she’s got a great sense of humor.

Frida Lay loves her champagne Frida Lay hosting Roscoe's Wet Boxer Contest Frida Lay unmasked! What a handsome guy

Frida hosts the last Thursdays of every month Roscoe’s Wet Boxer Contest, where guys get warm water sprayed on them to see who’s got the nicest package.

Why do all our guest have fancy underwear?We like the idea of this so much, we HAVE to go see it for ourselves. So be sure to join us on July 31 as we help Frida with the contest by pouring water on the hot guys.

Check out Frida Lay’s MySpace page for a complete list of her Chicago appearances.

Listen as we talk with Frida about the sexy Roscoe’s Wet Boxer Contest, Falling in Love and why she won’t sleep with any of her fans.

eltonjohn-hungryYum yum! Here’s a gay ice cream story. Vermont ice-cream company Ben and Jerry’s just announced their new flavor in honor of musician Elton John- Goodbye Yellow Brickle Road.

The pop singer well known for his hits Candle in the Wind and the Bitch is Back collaborated on the flavor, asking the ice-cream makers “just make it chocolate and peanut butter guys, if you can make something like that work.”

Like the Bluebell ice-cream down in Texas, Elton takes a similar approach to the product, he eats all he can and sells the rest. Just kidding folks!

David Partin with his pregnant girlfriend SamanthaHere’s another sign the economy is in bad shape. It also sounds like Jeff Foxworthy joke: “You might be a redneck if…” you sell your unborn baby boy’s name for a $100 gas card to a radio station.

David Partin recently heard that a local radio station was giving away $100 worth of free gas to the listener who called in with the most interesting item to trade. He won. But seriously, for $100? With today’s oil prices, that’s not even two tanks of gas.

Partin’s girlfriend Samantha says “At least my son will have an interesting story about how he got his name.”

Savor the flavor- Feast of Fools.

FOF #801 - Gay Republican - 07.17.08

It’s not easy being pink, especially when you’re a gay Republican, or part of the Pink Elephant party, as I like to call it. You’re an outsider both in gay circles and in the Republican party, a stranger in a strange land.

Make up artist and gay Republican Marcus HaynesIt’s not easy being pink, especially when you’re a gay Republican, or part of the Pink Elephant party, as I like to call it.

You’re an outsider both in gay circles and in the Republican party, a stranger in a strange land.

I’ve really been enjoying reading about Barbara Walter’s life in her tell-all memoir “Audition” where she marvels at the appeal of talk-show foil Elisabeth Hasselbeck. She’s the sexy but conservative Republican on the show who for some reason or another always stands by her man, but in this case it’s the disaster we all know as President George W Bush.

Marcus Haynes loves his Feast of Fools t-shirt!I thought it would be fun to find a gay Republican to talk to on the show, one who doesn’t fit the mold of a staunch, suit-wearing conservative. Well here he is, and did I mention that he likes to wear male style wigs when he goes out to bars.

Say hello to Marcus Haynes- make-up artist, image consultant, communications researcher and GAY REPUBLICAN. Yes, his MySpace page has a Louis Vuitton background, and yes, he loves his designer bags.

Besides talking about American politics and our dire need for Universal Health Care system, Marcus really knows his make-up and can make anyone look flawless.

Marcus puts brow gel on me, much to my trepidationI was a bit scared when he took his brush to my face, worrying he would make me look like a fierce drag queen. Nothing wrong with that, but today I wanted to look like a hot dude.

Here’s a photo of my face as Marcus puts on Christian Dior “Diorshow Brow” eyebrow gel on my face. Be gentle Marcus!

A lot of our guests like to show off their fancy drawers for us! Marcus gives Fausto a hug, Fausto Loves his Makeup!

Barbie as Black CanaryBarbie has a brand new look and it’s a dirty whore. Well, not a dirty whore but Barbie as Black Canary, the DC comic book character. Some right wing Christians are saying that she looks more like an S&M dominatrix than a superhero. You go Barbie and get your freak on because we know that Ken isn’t given it to you.

Perez Hilton is getting sued after publishing on the front of his site a homophobic email he received. Diane Wargo wrote the famous blogger and called him a “Fat Gay Pig” and is now suing him for $25 million because she lost her job after she was inundated with hate mail from Perez readers. She was on company time and used her company email address to spew her idiocy so her boss canned her.

I’m not one to publicly display people’s email addresses when they email nasty comments but I’m glad Perez did it to her. This homophobic crap has got to stop and people should be held accountable for their actions. He should sue her! And I should sue them both for having to blog about it.

We’ve got a couple of fun threads in the forums right now. The first one, Strangest thing you’ve had sex with, was started by Knicknack11 because he heard the topic on the show and became interested in what other people were into. And the other thread is So try to gross me out! started by Marc Felion. It’s pretty gross but we’re trying to keep it to hot guys that have something gross going on. It’s not for the squeamish.

Fausto gives Marc a hug on his birthdayHappy 800 shows everyone! Love to watch that odometer of podcasting turn.

Jim Pickett will be at the Center on Halsted this Thursday April 17 for a live Feast of Fools podcastToday we’re thrilled to have our good friend, writer and health advocate Jim Pickett joining us to dispel some rumors, conspiracies and misconception surrounding HIV/AIDS and healthcare.

We are very happy to announce that the Feast of Fools is the proud recipient of the Esteem Awards for best GLBT podcast presented by Windy City Black Pride and Pride Index. We’re sorry that we weren’t able to attend the awards ceremony on July 2 as we were in Pennsylvania. We’ve been honored to have such African Americans on the show as RuPaul, Alexyss K. Tylor, Rev. Charles Straight, Mr. Gay Shar Devon, author Frederick Smith, actor Marcus Patrick and video blogger B. Scott just to name a few.

Low Rising Jeans causing a controversy- because they are hot!The ACLU is condemning the crackdown on saggy pants in Flint, Michigan. The Flint Police Department routinely stops people who wear saggy pants that hang below their butts and issues misdemeanors for the offense citing disorderly conduct and indecent exposure laws.

The police cheif is even accused of asking the alleged offenders to lift up their long shirts so he can see just how low their pants sag. We know know that the only people that wear their pants like that are black kids in urban settings or white kids in the suburbs. I wonder which type the police are targeting.

Since we are always on the subject of safe sex, remember condoms aren’t the only way to protect yourself. You should always make sure that the place you are having sex is a safe and secure one. For example Taiwanese couple were making love in the back seat of their car when their car suddenly plummeted 150 feet down the cliff side. Although the unfortunate couple were bruised and battered, they did manage to climb back up the hill and get some help. We hope the woman’s husband doesn’t find out about the accident as he wasn’t the man in the car.

Wisconsinites, don’t run off to California for your same sex marriage just yet! Same sex couples that get married in California may get arrested in Wisconsin. An obscure law from 1915 states that it is a crime for a Wisconsin resident to enter marriage in another state if that marriage is illegal here. It carries a fine up to $10,000 and nine months in prison. Now you know what to get the couple for their wedding gift- bail bonds! We can’t wait to see how this plays out!

Don’t forget to join us for Let's Take a Glass Together“Let’s Take a Glass Together” on Wednesday July 23 at 6pm, at Sidetrack for a live podcast forum on the LGBT community and alcohol. Come discover how we can have a healthier relationship with alcohol in this unique event presented by LifeLube, Project CRYSP and the Chicago Task Force on LGBT Substance Use and Abuse.

Cover of the New Yorker depcts our possible future Preisdent Barak Obama and his wife MIchelle as terroristsI’m not sure what to say about this controversial New Yorker magazine cover depicting our possible future president Barak Obama and his wife Michelle as a muslim terrorist and a radical black activist. I love satire, I love crossing the line and I love to poke fun at political leaders, no matter who they are.

Some are easier to poke fun than others. The New Yorker claims this cover is just a send-up of all the ultraconservative, loony misconceptions Obama’s critics have tried to create. Tasteless and offensive as it may be, they have every right to run this image and for us to react to it.

This country, and the world can not afford another four more years of Bush’s policies, and divisive, fear based politics. Having Barak Obama as President means taking a look not only at our own racism, but also how we criticize our political leaders. I think it’s healthy for the public at large to have a massive purging of our hateful feelings, but at the same time, covers like this might just have the unintended consequence of bringing us four more years of an environmentally, economically and militarily disastrous leader, John McCain.

Go ahead and lick it- Feast of Fools.

Nirmalpal Sachdev on the Feast of FoolsWe delighted to have former porn star and hunky Indian man, Nirmalpal Sachdev back on the today’s show. You first fell in love with Nirmalpal on our inside tour of Steamworks, the men’s bath house that sponsors our show. As general manager at the premier Chicago men’s bath house, Nirmalpal has a very unique perspective on men’s sexuality.

Nirmalpal shares tips and tricks to make the most of your visit to a bath house. We also discuss our anxiety on nudity, sex and the body.

Man blowing his own hornHe can also blow his own horn, if you know what I mean, and I think you do!

But just how does he do it? Listen and find out.

We’re really exctited about the potential of Graffitio, the new iPhone application! This app allows you to attach conversations to places. When you open the application it looks for virtual “walls” around you that were created by other users at restaurants, bars, stores, parks and yes, even public bathrooms. You can write anything you want on the wall and not get arrested for destroying property.

Fausto FernĂłs and Nirmalpal Sachdev model the Feast of Fools t-shirtsI can see this being a huge hit at Steamworks with graffiti like “I’m in room #214 looking for a submissive twink bear.” We’re sure it will be taken over by the gays, just like real graffiti in men’s bathrooms.

The Sex Olympics comes to complete halt as nine British women in Greece are arrested after being paid to perform in an oral sex contest on the Greek island of Zakynthos. We really wonder just how you judge an oral sex contest. After all, where would you even begin? Is it quantity or quality? What do you think? Help us decide in the comments section.

Fausto started a new work out regimen that’s kicking his ass. He’s doing a twelve week intensive training and he figures if he sticks to this routine then he’ll get a personal trainer to take him even further down the road of body building. Fausto reckons that if transsexuals or body builders can go to such great extremes to get the body they want, then dammit, he can too. I couldn’t be happier and I support him 100% as long as I get to enjoy the sexy results. Please show your support by not feeding him junk food or beer.

Nirmalpal gives Marc Felion a hugWe received an email from a listener who was struggling with us flirting with guests, or as he says “.. in your over evaluation and time spent on discussing people’s physical and sexual attraction.” His email really made us think about how we interact with guests on the show.

We came to the conclusion that we subconsciously flirt because it helps create an intimate atmosphere for the show.

I told him that “People like to be told that they are attractive. It helps to open them up and give a good show.

I encourage you to tell the people in your life that they are beautiful and that they mean something to you. You will find, if you are sincere, that you will have a better relationship with them and they too will open up to you. It is that shared experience is what life is all about.”

I also recommend that he listen to the show we did on how to accept compliments.

Always fresh, hot and tasty- Feast of Fools.
