NewYears-web-JAN2010

Dr. Oz made a bold statement. This New Year, why not try something new? Eat often, sleep as much as you can and have sex all the time. Has Oprah’s doctor lost his mind?

The very raunchy Mike David and Kyle Lane from Red Bar Radio join us to talk about their new years resolutions. And surprise, it’s a little off the wall.

We’re way into fermented foods- kombucha, yogurt and sauerkraut. If it’s rotten, we’re eating it!

The Darwin Award winners have been announced! Named after Charles Darwin to “commemorate those who improve our gene pool… by removing themselves from it,” the awards are given out annually to people who die in stupid ways without leaving any descendants.

Is Megan Mullally selling out to women with breast cancer with her tacky margarine ad?

And a publicity campaign that may backfire, a dating website for “Beautiful People” dumps 5,000 of its members for gaining weight over the holidays.

Make sure to check out Red Bar Comedy Night.

During the winter holidays people from all backgrounds come together to share in their common humanity.

Even folks like Senator Orrin Hatch. When he’s not busy fighting marriage equality earning a big fat zero in support of the gays from the Human Rights Campaign or halting health care reform, the Mormon Senator from Utah likes to record music, on his own label. And this Christmas season he has a song for the Jews!

But watch out, first he’ll have you singing about Hanukkah and then it’s a slippery slope into Christmas carols, then you’ll be born again.

longhorn-xmasComedian and auteur Keith Ecker joins us to read an essay about growing up Jewish but non-religious in the ultra-conservative Dallas, Texas.

Listen to Keith’s story about how his family had the only house on the cul-de-sac not to have plastic Longhorn cattle dressed up in Christmas lights.

Keith is hosting Essay Fiesta, a reading series, every 3rd Monday of the month at 7 PM at The Book Cellar in Lincoln Square.

In the news:

Gay Porn star Andrew Grand dies from swollowing a plastic baggie filled with pot while being tazered by cops.

Prince Willy of England tries to pass himself off as a TV adventure personality.

Disney’s Tarzan toy is yanked from the shelves because it shows Tarzan yanking on his vine.

A research scientist discovers octopi gathering coconut shells as housing materials.

And Senator Joe Liberman as the “Grinch Who Stole Health Care.”

Shivian-Chris-web-DEC2009

You may not know it, but Christmas, like a lot of holidays, traces its origins back to ancient Pagan celebrations.

The Babylonians with their Feast of the Son of Isis and the Romans with their Winter Solstice all celebrated the lengthening of the days with parties, dinners and gift giving events.

Yule logs, mistletoe, wreaths and even Santa Claus all date back years before the Romans declared Christianity their official religion. Lutherans in the 1500s even considered Christmas trees a blasphemy!

So do Christians now owe pagans back royalties for copyright infringement?

We’re bringing some nutty holiday cheer on today’s show with our very own ginger witch Shivian Balaris- he’s here to cast a sexy spell for good fortune, and to get even with our enemies.

And somebody’s grandma walks out of church, disgusted by the pastor’s hate speech this holiday season.

What a miserable year! As 2009 comes to an end, we’re reminded of what a terrible year it was for not just the nation, but for gay folks as well.

Our hopes for the equality promised by President Obama were dashed as hate ran rampant across the world. What happened?

Blogger Alicia Eller at Chicago Now comprised a list of “The Top 25 Homophobic Moments of 2009″ and it’s getting a lot of traffic. Some of the highlights include- Carrie Prejean’s opposite marriage, manipulative sports officials leaking the inter-sex status of champion Semenaya, and politicians caving into the demands of fundamentalists with regards to marriage equality.

But it’s not all bad- 2009 was also a year where millions of people felt empowered to stand up and say “I want my rights.” More people came out of the closet and a lot of people had some sexy good times.

Comedian Adam Guerino joins us to find the healing power of laughter inside all the misery.

The worst Christmas presents ever given.

Comedian Sabrina Matthews was scuba diving off the coast of Myanmar when she was attacked by a barracuda that sliced through her diving mask and slit her left eyeball wide open. A year and several operations later, Sabrina sees the world in a whole new way.

Being a comedian and having a disability is like being a superhero in a comic book with the heightened powers of keen observation. Sabrian’s noticed almost all eye injuries portrayed in movies involve the left eye while the right eye is the untouched or sacred eye of film?

Join us as Sabrina fill us in on her life and experience as a stand up comedian. Just because she’s gay doesn’t mean that she hasn’t noticed what men do with their own packages. Why do guys touch themselves so much? Why do comedians look down on dick jokes? We have the answers.

Australians up in arms that over emu and kangaroo flavored potato chips because the animals are the national symbols of Oz.

Safe and sustainable fish to eat.

Santas in Estonia give up their whips so they won’t frighten the children.

And a statue of Michelangelo’s David on Texas lawn is dressed up as a sexy St. Nick which leaves children asking “Why is Santa naked?”

Due to the economy, many are staying home this holiday season with their friends instead of traveling to see their extended families.

A lot may find themselves attending celebrations outside of their own experience, lighting Kwanzaa candles, spinning dradles and popping firecrackers. This year everbody’s trying something new.

We’re busy brewing our very own special Christmas kombucha, a delicious fermented tea beverage which traces its origins to Russia and China. The magical elixir is the tasty byproduct of a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast that feeds off of the sweet tea.

America’s lesbian sweetheart Cameron Esposito joins us. She just finished taping her comedy album “Grab Them Aghast” at the Lincoln Lodge this past week and she’s here to talk about her experience and what’s next.

Here’s some “Horrors of Christmas” pictures- the first is a cancer treatment center that has an overabundance of holiday lights as if to say to their patients “Your last Christmas will be the brightest.” And the second photo looks as though they just buried the Baby Jesus.

Canadian scientists give up on a porn study because they can’t find any men who have never seen hardcore movies.

Lesbian axe murder.

And how to handle homophobic comments according to Miss Manners.

FOF #1099 – Jackie Hoffman is Mad as Hell and Not Going to Take It Anymore

Jackie Hoffman with Marc Felion and Fausto Fernós

Many women would kill for the role of Grandmama in the all new The Addams Family musical, but Jackie Hoffman says she’s pissed because she doesn’t get to sing her own song and her stage time is being whittled down to next to nothing.

So while she’s in town, she’s doing double duty in her comedy cabaret show “Whining in the Windy City” which promises to skewer everything that is merry for the holidays with biting, fearless stand up comedy and original songs. Jackie’s going to spill the beans on working on Broadway and dish the dirt on her comedy peers from Chicago like Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, and the Sedaris siblings who, as she says, are now more famous than she is.

She’s hilarious and hateful, and she’s in the home studio. Look out!

Jackie doesn’t hold back her true feelings about the new Addams Family musical, her funniest moment on stage ever and why the holidays and children are so annoying to her.

Don’t miss“Whining in the Windy City” at the Royal George Cabaret, 1641 N. Halsted, Monday evenings, November 30 – December 21, at 7:30 p.m.

In the news:
Robert Pattison goes on David Letterman and talks about how everyone wants him to take a bite out of them, even a 250 pound Mexican man.

Sarah Palin tells Oprah “You’re not the center of the world.”

Does President Obama’s voice sound like Ron Popeil’s for a reason?

As the Midwest Regional Director for Lamdba Legal- Jim also shares with us his own insights into the political climate.— into the progress for change and the recent failure and triumph in gay rights.

Listen as we talk about what everybody’s talking about:

Microsoft’s awkward attempt at a viral video may have captured a shoplifter on camera.

Sarah Palin considers outrageous TV host Glenn Beck as a possible running mate for the future.
