Just because it’s snowing outside doesn’t mean you should be staying in!
On today’s show we’ve got Kevin Thomas, your gay concierge and friend to all bears (and their admirers) to talk about what’s hot on Broadway and in Chicago theater.
A sizzling production of Miss Saigon is now playing at the Drury Lane Theater in the Chicago suburb of Oak Brook until March 8th. Check out Kevin’s blog entry for a full account of the fabulous show and more Broadway business.
Listen as we talk about Miss Saigon and how you can become a understudy for the coveted role of the Vietnamese bar girl with the heart of gold. If you’ve ever seen Showgirls, you know what we are talking about.
Also, check out Saturday Night Live as show characters try to save Broadway. Can you believe Neil Patrick Harris’ impersonation of actor Anthony Rapp who originated the role of Mark in Rent that Harris later took over?
An awkward news story being pushed around about Kyle Mingoue’s hot boyfriend posing nude reveals anxieties about the future of gay print media. Odd phrases such as “world’s most renowned” or “leading gay mag” in the article almost equally touts the the wonder of OUT magazine as much as the nudie pics of Minogoue’s boyfriend.
We wonder what the future of large-scale queer media will be as more and more of the public moves online. Is the recent merger of Regent Media with PlanetOut and Gay.com is good for gay people? Or will it reduce a diversity of viewpoints?
A hot new trend- cute things falling asleep is a website depicting cute animals and babies trying to sleep is intriguing millions. Will our video of Kevin Thomas sleeping be a hit?
American Idol Returns for another exciting seasons of freaks, geeks and shrieks. We can’t wait. We’re interested in to see how the new judge will n=mix with the other judges and contestants.
And a happy ending for a 140 year old lobster who is set free from a New York City restaurant. Did he become shark food or will he live a long happy life?

FOF #880 – Gay is Good, Gay is Great
Standard Podcast [55:26m]:
Going to a gay rights protest this weekend? We’ve got you covered. On today’s show we’re sharing our tips on making the most of your local gay rights protest and how to enjoy a fabulous and passionate fight for gay rights!
This may be some people’s first time at a protest so please dress for the weather, in Chicago that means lots of comfy layers and maybe some rain gear.
Avoid eye contact with police. Do what they say and don’t eyeball them. No one likes to be eyeballed, especially cops, so don’t eyeball them. This protest isn’t about eyeballing, it’s about gay rights.
Keep moving and don’t stay in one place on the sidewalk or they might get you for impeding traffic. Plus, if you are on the run, you are harder to get.
Your protest outfit wouldn’t be complete without a protest sign. Follow these simple rules I modified from Uknighted Manganime for the ultimate sign:
1 Make your slogan rhyme because it may just become the chant that everyone rallies around.
2 Use lots of exclamation marks to show that you are serious about your protest!!!!! Bonus- they also fill in all that pesky negative space!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3 YOU SHOULD WRITE IN ALL IN CAPITALS TO SHOW THAT YOU ARE VERY SERIOUS AND YOU MUST ‘SHOUT’ TO SHOW THAT YOU MEAN BUSINESS!!!
Hilary Clinton is singing “mama he’s making eyes at me.” Yesterday, the Obama administration eyed the President Elect’s former rival for the position of Secretary of State. She may be a great fit but is this just a ruse to get her out of the country?
The trans man Thomas Beatie is knocked up again. Was this a planned pregnancy?
Scientists take you deep inside the brain of a bully. Did you know that bullies actually enjoy seeing people in pain and misery. Duh!
Paula Goodspeed, who was mocked at the American Idol tryouts, committed suicide outside of judge Paula Abdul’s home. Ms. Goodspeed was disappointed about how bloggers treated her after her appearance on American Idol. She apparently died from a drug overdose.
Remember folks, A healthy booty is a happy one!
