Comedian Cameron Esposito, talks about dealing with gay jokes as a professional comedian and touring with an all-womens circus. Also, La Toya Jackson has been working with the L.A. police investigating her brother’s death, earning the nickname “Detective La Toya.”
Comedy can be rough and you need to have a thick skin, so what does America’s lesbian sweetheart, Cameron Esposito do when life gets rough? She blogs about it and then runs off with the circus.
She triggered a great discussion when she blogged about a comic who told a lame gay joke in front of her girlfriend, so listen to find out what all the hubbub was about.
Cameron joins us today to talk about her stint in the El Circus Cheapo which is touring the Southwest and West coast. She’s looking for a warm bed to sleep in on her tour so catch her if you can!
When God closes a door, he usually opens a window, and in the death of Michael Jackson, it’s a lovely picture window with a couple of cracks in the glass, better known as his sister, La Toya Jackson.
When not performing at the Moulin Rouge or posing naked with a snake, the middle child of the Jackson clan, La Toya, volunteers as a reserve police officer with the Muncie, Indiana Police Department.
Join us as we ponder some of the great mysteries, like why aren’t there more women and gay men in stand-up comedy?

History was made as Barack Hussein Obama became the 44th President of the United States, sworn to defend the U.S. Constitution which, at one time, defined blacks as three-fifths of a person.
As our country’s 44th president, does Obama have the Formula 44 to relieve the symptoms that plague this nation?
The very funny Cameron Espositio joins us to reflect on this joyful, momentous occasion as we compare Evangelist Rick Warren’s predictable prayer with Gay Episcopalian Bishop Gene Robinson’s inclusive invocation.
Celebrities from Bono to Oprah showed up in full force, and divas like Beyonce and Aretha delivered the goods.
Oh that hat! Aretha Franklin, sporting a gray hat with an over the top bedazzled bow sang “My Country ‘Tis of Thee.”
Besides her striking fashion, what everyone’s chatting about on the internet is how Aretha let out a quick “shut up” in the middle of her song, possibly at somebody in the crowd who wouldn’t presumably stop talking. If you listen to this several times, you could swear she’s getting possessed by Dick Cheney. Fight the evil Aretha!
Plus Jim Bennet joins us on the phone from Washington D.C. to share with us what it was like to be there for this moment in history.

Cameron is also working on sitcom pilot based on her comedy and we wonder if there will there be room for a persnickety Puerto Rican neighbor and his oafish boyfriend?
Check out the the video to the right for some of Cameron’s Stand up at the Sarcastic Squad. You can totally hear Marc and I laughing in the background.
Condoleeza Rice played the piano for the queen of England, but the queen didn’t hear the whole performance so we have to wonder if she was any good. She’s a trained concert pianist but she’s also the Secretary of State and she’s not very good at that.
Was she as good as Sarah the Saxophone Playing Walrus? Well, the walrus doesn’t actually play the sax but she looks like she’s having fun doing it.
