    LOL I forgot how funny that opening sketch was. And was this V-Marr’s last “official” show before her long LOA?

    Thanks for posting this one… good memories!!!

    Initial thoughts– the reference to Michael Jackson being a possible castrato made me smile. Now if you could rerun the episode where you guys were making fun of Sanjaya…

    This episode is one of my all-time favourites. Not just for the hilarious sketch at the beginning, but also for the frank discussion about gay teen suicide and the heartfelt advice the three of you gave to Cameron, the 14 year old kid from Winnipeg, who was upset about being overweight and gay. Vicky’s comment about her daily fight to stay alive was especially poignant.

    Cameron, if you’re still out there, I hope you’re doing all right.

    • Yeah Rhea- I hope he’s okay! Do you remember what episode number that was? They all kind of blurr into a blob after 1000 shows.

      With regards of this “classic” castrati podcast, we had no intention of tying it to Michael Jackson. But I guess sometimes coincidences happen!
