Christeene is exploding across the South in a hot mix of raw sexual shamlessness and original rap music. Today we’re continuing our shows from Austin, Texas with the man behind the mad woman, musician Paul Soileau.
Plus: A prankster overtakes WallMart’s intercom, Indonesia’s soil snack food, and Prinny the little cat from Australia that learned how to swim.
Watch out! Christeene is driving her way to you.
Paul Soileau’s drag character is exploding across the South, exploding onstage with her back up dancers as they spill out a hot mix of raw sexual shamlessness and original rap music. Is it too much to say that Christneene might replace Britney Spears as the new pop sensation from Louisiana?
Today we continue our shows from the heart of Texas with gender bending drag terrorist Paul Soileau. Paul shares with us his journey becoming both the outrageous Christeene and his other drag alter-ego, the more conservative Rebbecca Havemeyer.
Listen as Paul chats with us about Christeene’s chaotic sensibilities, his videos banned from YouTube that are making sites like Funny or Die rich, and the crazy things they eat in the bayou.
Plus hot news:
A prankster overtakes WallMart’s intercom system, announcing “all black people must leave immediately.”
Ampo, Indonesia’s soil snack food, eaten for generations in the village of Tuban, really is soil baked into squares. It’s eaten as a painkiller and to improve the skin of developing babies. Will we see it at Whole Foods anytime soon?
And Prinny the little cat from Australia that learned how to swim.

Audiences were horrified when the movie Showgirls came out in 1995. Today it’s a cult classic and one of MGM’s top selling DVD’s of all time.
Rena Riffel, who plays the tragic stripper Penny Hope, joins us over the phone from California to dish the dirt on Showgirls and talk about her upcoming projects which includes a musical version of Showgirls!
Audiences were horrified when the movie Showgirls came out in 1995. Critics hated director Paul Verhoven’s misguided attempt to capture the seedy show business world of Las Vegas, and it bombed in theaters.
Today Showgirls is a celebrated cult classic and one of MGM’s top selling DVD’s of all time. In fact, the film’s fan base is larger than ever and even the characters from the film enjoy a second life in the virtual world of Facebook as if the movie never ended.
You think you can do my nails for me now sugar?
The film centers on a sexy blond drifter Nomi Malone who hustles her way from pole dancing at a strip club to becoming the top showgirl at a casino in Las Vegas.
Although, many of the actors regret doing the film and will seldom speak of it, one actress, Rena Riffel, like all the fans has embraced the film’s campy plot, freaky sexual encounters and outlandish scenes.
Today Rena Riffel, who plays the tragic stripper Penny Hope, joins us over the phone from California to dish the dirt on Showgirls and talk about her upcoming projects which includes a musical version of Showgirls!
Rena’s working on her own soon to be released film “Trasharella: Ultra Vixen” about a starlet who becomes a super vixen to kill the evil Vampire of Hollywood.
Listen as Rena talks about working on Showgirls, watching it in the theater with Demi Moore and the cast of Striptease, how it was reborn as camp classic and what was the plot of the show within the show “Goddess” supposed to be?
We could have had anyone on this show: Janet Jackson, Paula Abdul. Rena Riffel is what Feast of Fun is all about! She’s dazzling, she’s exciting, and she’s very, very sexy!

Who can forget that classic lines delivered between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford? Joan Crawford as Blanche says “You wouldn’t be able to do these awful things to me if I weren’t still in this chair” to which Bette Davis as Baby Jane Hudson creepily replies “But you ARE, Blanche! You ARE in that chair!”
Everybody loves the 1962 campy horror film, “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane,” directed by Robert Aldrich. The character of Baby Jane Hudson is considered by many to be one of the top movie villains of all time and is especially loved by gay men.
Today we’re talking to writer and director, Billy Clift about his debut film “Baby Jane?” a loving parody of the Hollywood classic.
Billy’s loved the movie all his life, and when he had the opportunity to make a revision his favorite film, he cast it with some of the best drag queens and performers in San Francisco. The film features Matthew Martin as Baby Jane and Katya Smirnoff Skye as Blanche.
And guess who plays the nosy neighbor-Trannyshack founder Heklina!
They’re both on today’s show talking about the making of the movie and whether the drag queens battled it out behind the scenes as much as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford did during the making of the original film.
Also – Heklina fills us in on her recent appearance on the TV series “Trauma” with hunky actor Taylor Kinney.
Are you more a Bette Davis or a Joan Crawford?

When filmmaker Ky Dickens came out to her friends in college, they responded by asked her to go into reperative therapy, quoting the Bible back at her, saying the devil had her heart. Ouch!
Ky wrote a powerful letter to her close friend Katie debunking the Bible’s condemnation of homosexuality, and got a moving apology from her friend. The letter inspired her to make the documentary film “Fish Out of Water.”
Many of the world’s religious leaders disagree on a lot of things, but one thing that brings them together is their condemnation of the gays. But why pick on the gays at all? Isn’t God all about love anyway?
Today we’re talking to filmmaker Ky Dickens about her fascinating new documentary “Fish Out of Water” which details her struggle to come to terms with how religious people view same-sex loving folks.
Ky came out as a lesbian to her friends in college but was met with hostility and religious condemnation. She was encouraged to seek counseling and reparative therapy. Instead, she sought out all the specific references in the Bible to homosexuality and debunked them.
After finding out that the few mentions of homosexuality in the Bible didn’t carry much weight when taken into context, Ky wrote a letter to her friend detailing what she found. Her friend not only understood her message but apologized. This powerful moment inspired Ky to reach out to a larger audience with a documentary on what she found out.
Listen as Ky talks about interviewing everyday Americans in truck stops, barbershops and shopping malls about the Bible’s take on homosexuality.
Hanging out with Shirley Phelps- is she for real? Who are the good guys fighting the good fight? And why don’t more ministers and churches stand up for equality?
Fish out of Water shows this Sunday in Chicago at the Music Box theater as part of Reeling, the Gay and Lesbian Film Festival.
In the news:
The French Courts convict The Church of Scientology of fraud, fining them $900,000.
And a Wisconsin woman called the police on herself for driving drunk.

Filmmaker and MySpace Matt Riddlehoover talks about his role in “Watch Out,” a dark film about an irresistible narcissist who could only make love to himself. The film’s campy narrative and graphic portrayals of self-love and violence has audiences divided.
Today we continue our series of interviews with internet celebrities from Los Angeles with Matt Riddlehoover. Matt found success on one of the first big social media sites- MySpace. Remember MySpace?
In the summer of 2006, Matt Riddlehoover became famous on MySpace for the video trailer for his short film “To a Tee,” a dark romantic comedy about a guy who falls for the same type of man over and over again.
For Matt, being prominently featured on the social media site led to the lead role in “Watch Out,” a dark film about an irresistible narcissist who could only make love to himself. The film’s campy narrative and graphic portrayals of self-love and violence has audiences divided over the film’s merits.
“Watch Out” comes out on DVD November 24.
Listen as Matt talks about the controversy, what it took to get ready for those sexy scenes and how his mother reacted to the movie.
Matt’s also working on a unusual documentary “Gaze,” a collection of audio interviews with 20 artists talking about how they redefine beauty and how these ideas of beauty affect everyone.
We’re also joined by his kooky friend, Champagne!! Champagne!!, a visual artist who combs Los Angeles in search of unusual garbage to turn into works of art. By the end of the show, she changes her name. Will it stick?

Reality TV star Glenn Douglas Packard from “Brooke Knows Best” has a new boyfriend, underwear model Daniel Miagany. Plus- an interview with “3-Day Weekend” director Rob Williams.
Brooke Knows Best on VH1 is one of my guilty summer pleasures. The spin-off reality tv series based on Hulk Hogan’s daughter Brooke might be the hottest show on right now.
One sexy twist is Brooke’s gay guy pal Glenn Douglas Packard now has a sexy boyfriend, underwear model Daniel Miagany. A special “Glenn Goes Home” episode premiers this Sunday where Glenn brings the whole crew and his new boyfriend home to Michigan to meet the family.
Listen as we talk to Glenn and Daniel about their relationship as the lie in bed in Miami Beach after a decadent night of hanging out with reality TV stars.
What was it like for Glenn to make out with a girl on the show? Why did Glenn get naked in front of the Hulk? How soon before they force feminize the Hulkster?
Half the fun of the show is watching Glenn interacting with the famous 80s wrestler Hulk Hogan. Its great to see a macho wrestling icon hanging out with his daughter and her friends, contemplating gay marriage and same-sex dating. Knowing his audience, the Hulkster never fails to mention he has gay wrestling buddies, hopefully we’ll get to meet them in upcoming shows!
In the second half of the show we talk to publicist turned movie producer, director and writer Rob Williams of Guest House Films.
Robin’s films include “Make the Yuletide Gay,” “Back Soon” and “Long-Term Relationship” where a gay man falls in love with a Republican!
His film “3-Day Weekend” comments on the state of gay films, referencing Terrence McNally’s genre defining film “Love, Valor, Compassion!” Have popular gay films been plagued by a certain victim mentality? Where are gay films headed in the future?
Some of Rob’s films have minor roles played by Feast of Fun favorites- Deven Green and her hunky husband Joel Bryant!
I’m crossing my fingers that Rob produces my TV pilot where Deven I play a crime-solving wheelchair bound physicist and his karate chopping nurse, but I’m not holding my breath.

Although the Cuban sex trade has been well documented, a new film, Luchando, shows how modern Cuban people are to each other for intimacy and economic gain.
Today we’re talking to documentary filmmaker Noelle Stout and Alphonso Morgan, the producer of the film “Luchando” which follows the struggle of four sex workers in Cuba.
The term “Luchando” means “the constant or continuing struggle” and has been appropriated by the sex workers from the propaganda of the Communist Revolution to describe their constant struggle to make it and be part of society.
Join us as we take a look how the modern gay rights movement in Cuba is interwoven with the rise in sex workers and why this communist country just may grant same-sex marriage rights before the United States in order to demonstrate their commitment to human rights.
We also discuss the state of the HIV/AIDS quarantine camps and their effectiveness and the dangers of documenting such a controversial subject as prostitution in a communist country where journalism is illegal.
Then we’re also talking to writers Chris Martin and Darren Flaxstone of the gritty new British film, Shank which tells the story of sexy 18 year Cal who struggles to come to terms with being gay while being part of a violent gang – a violent sexy gang!
Plus, they’re all taking your questions, through facebook. So stick around for tricks and thugs.
