Created way back in 2005, we put together this wacky “silent film” of our bizarre twisted version of the Nutcracker, featuring Victoria Lamarr, Amanda, Marc Felion, Taylor E Ross and me, Fausto Fernós.
We made this video in anticipation of iTunes and iPods supporting video playback. At the time YouTube didn’t exist, and iTunes had only been supporting audio podcast subscriptions for several months.

Victoria Lamarr as Little Edie

As the only gay talk show hosts to be nominated for the top prize, we’re celebrating with an old friend, drag queen Victoria Lamarr, the internet’s first HIV positive video blogger.
With her zesty take on life, V-Mar is Chicago’s answer to Grey Garden’s Little Edie but without the pedigree. She just received great news from her doctor and she’s ready to climb some proverbial mountains.
Listen as we weigh in on the hot news of the day:
The Beauty Queen of Mean, Carrie Prejean freaks out on Larry King Live over her settled lawsuit with the Miss California USA pageant.
Just because she won’t talk to Larry doesnt mean she’s shutting up! Carrie blabs on Chrisitanity Today that she’s not homophobic because she has a gay hairdresser and that the bible allows breast impants.
After all, nowhere does it say “though shall not have a large rack.”
Lou Dobbs quits CNN. Will we see a Palin/Dobbs ticket for the 2012 presidential run?
Levi Johnston’s chilly Playgirl photoshoot.
Warning! Susan Powter’s crazy blog may hurt you. Too bad stop the insanity doesn’t apply to her.
And Google to support full resolution high definition videos. But can your computer and internet connection handle it?

Our drag queen gal pal Victoria Lamarr has been down in the dumps, hiding from the world, sleeping on a friends couch and hoping the blues will pass her by.
Today we’re shocking her into the sunshine state by splashing her with the cool fresh water that’s the Feast of Fun podcast. Does scream therapy work?
Vicki is putting together songs for her one woman cabaret show, which sounds delicious. Will V-Marr’s act be more Judy Garland at Carnegie Hall or Little Edie at the Reno Sweeney Nightclub?
Listen as V-Marr takes questions from you the listeners and reflects on this years Prime-Time Emmy Awards, hosted by the fabulous Neil Patrick Harris. Wasn’t he awesome as host of the Emmy’s? I think it’s the first time an openly gay man’s hosted the event, right?
This years ceremonies were marked by an usual tone, as many of the celebrities acknowledged the changing face of media, as more people turn online for their entertainment. Amy Poehler and Julia Loise Dreyfus joked this year will be the last one for network television.
Also, Ryan Seacrest reads an awkward twitter on the red carpet to Rob Lowe’s handsome young son.

Today we celebrate 11 years of fabulous shows, once as Feast of Fools, today as Feast of Fun. We’ve managed to dig up a very special guest from way back when, the tragically glamorous Victoria Lamarr!
Back when we started the podcast in 2005, one of our early guests was Matthew Bogseth, a drag queen who went by the name of Victoria Lamarr. Later that year Matthew was in hospital from complications of AIDS. (more…)
When Victoria Lamarr isn’t rollerblading on the Chicago lakefront, she loves to dumpster dive outside of celebrities’ homes. What did she find in ousted Gov. Blagojevich’s dumpster?
With the economy in a downturn, you gotta look to the resourceful folks for ideas.
Today we’re talking to one of our favorite dumpster diving drag queens- Victoria Lamarr.
When she’s not rollerblading on the Chicago lakefront, V-Marr figures out where Chicago celebrities live and dives through their dumpsters in search of hidden treasures! She just dug through the tattered remains of a famously impeached Chicago politician. What bounty did she find?
V-Marr’s on the show taking questions from you through Facebook.
Listen as we give you the update on the infamous drag queen Lady Vera Parker who was arrested for theft by deception. Don’t get any ideas V-Marr!
Clay Aiken asks his fans to oust bigoted North Carolina politician Skip Stam, who argued that passing laws protecting gay teens from bullying would lead to legalization of pedophilia and equates gay parenting with the dangers of second hand smoke.
Rock Star Energy Drink apologizes to gay people everywhere, donating $100,000 to gay charities, but is it still tied to hatemonger radio personality Michael Savage.
And a British tourist attraction is advertising a $100,000 a year job for a witch to live in a cave. The last one had to quit because of health problems. Will Sarah Palin apply for the job?

Put on your party hats! We’re throwing a grand celebration with some of our favorite guests from the show’s 11 year history, and you’re invited.
Feast of Fun began as Feast of Fools, an artist’s variety show in Chicago, Illinois. Today it’s the world’s most downloaded talk show for a gay and lesbian audience. We just might be the first podcast to ever post 1000 consecutive shows. Yeow!
How did we get here? Come take a walk with us down memory lane as we look back on over a thousand podcasts.
Listen as we talk to some of the show’s first performers, drag queens, musicians and colorful people who’s creative energies have made it all possible.
Has the internet changed how we interact in public spaces or merely given us a new tool to bring people together?
Are we using this new media to its fullest potential or are we just begging to scratch the surface?
We have Jim Pickett, Silky Jumbo, Taylor E Ross, Victoria Lamarr, Jamie Williamson, Adam Guerino, Jason Smith and Johnny Dangerous.
Hilarious clips from years past, celebrity testimonials from: Coco Peru, Glenn Packard, Jim Verraros, Kate Clinton, Cameron Esposito, Madonna, Peaches Christ, Ronnie Kroell and many more!
Plus voice mail from you, the listeners. Thank you for all your support. We couldn’t have reached this milestone without you.
