Writer Craig Seymour on his book "All I Could Bare"

Visiting a strip club when you first come out can be a very liberating experience as it validates your desire to look at other men. For Craig Seymour, he was so fascinated by his experience at the strip club, he did his college thesis on the subject of stripping and interviewed many male dancers and their clients. He eventually felt that if he was really going to know what it’s like to be one of them he’ll have to take it all off and work the pole.

The seedy clubs where Craig worked were famous for full-on nude men and he would spend hours working the crowd in his birthday suit to get just the right angle for his thesis. Now that’s research!

All I Could BareCraig put it all in his book “All I Could Bare: My Life in the Strip Clubs of Gay Washington, D.C” and he’s here today to talk about his experiences as a stripper, a professor and journalist.

Listen as Craig chats with us about the escalating costs of higher education, the changing face of LGBT journalism and why digital media is making it harder for conservative closeted politicians to lead double lives.

Plus-

His relationship with the conservative blogger Matt Drudge and why Matt wears those awful hats.

And how Luther Vandross almost came out to Craig during an interview but never quite got there

Chris-Rushton-610-MAR2010

A gay youth revolution is taking over the internet as young people are connecting with others on a mass scale by telling their coming out stories on Youtube in order to make sense of the world.

One such video blogger, Chris Rushton, came out during high school, then dropped out. Today he’s back in college pursuing a nursing degree, but his popular video blog Chris Rustonable continues to be a meaningful part of his life.

Chris initially asked us to come on our program two years ago when he was 16 years old, but he declined when we insisted he bring his mom along.

Listen as Chris shares with us his tips on video blogging, making the most of iMovie, creating a group video channel and being stalked by his fans.

And, Chris also shares the steamy details of his one night stand with American Idol finalist Adam Lambert.

Plus:
A baby survives being shot in the chest by his parents in a global warming suicide pact.

Robert Pattinson offered to pose nude for Details magazine, and they declined.

And further proof that the earth is spinning faster than ever: Chile’s earthquake may have tipped the Earth’s axis, no joke.
