FOF #825 - Is This DEEE-END of Trannyshack? - 08.22.08
from Feast of Fools » Gay Fun Show August 21, 2008
I love having celebrities in my hotel room. On today s show we ve got three delicious stars in our penthouse suite at the Hotel Mark Twain in San Francisco- Peaches Christ, Heklina, and Lady Miss Kier! The three of them, along with a multitude other fabulous performers will be working the stage on Saturday night at the Trannyshack Final Kiss-OFF Party, a big adieu to the weekly club show that has influenced drag queens for over 12 years. But as they say in show business, nothing ever really dies. Will Lash Out be the next project in the works or will Trannyshack continue in a different form? Lady Miss Kier is best known as the lead singer and co-producer for the mega-hit band DEEE-LITE, who s songs Groove is in the Heart and What is Love defined the sound for a whole generation. Today their music still gets an enthusiastic response from people everywhere. As a art director and fashion designer her influence was felt throughout the 90s in club kid fashion, video and in graphic design. Join us for an intoxicating fun show as we dish it up with Heklina and Peaches Christ about the final night of Trannyshack in San Francisco, the impact of Dee-Lite s music, and living in the 1990 s Plus questions from you, our listeners.

FOF #645 - Live from The Stud Bar in San Francisco! - 11.07.07
from Feast of Fools : Gay Fun Show November 07, 2007
The wait is over! Here it is, the taping of our live show from The Stud Bar in San Francisco. The City by the Bay with all the gays was very good to us and boy did we have a blast! We just can t wait to get back there. The fresh air, handsome guys, the Californian relaxed atmosphere, the homeless people on steroids- San Francisco has it all. We are very proud of everyone who participated in the live show and blown away by their performances. Amanda, Ronnie, Sal-E, Ronn Vigh, and Heklina were all were amazing and delivered their bit with great skill. Without their support and participation we wouldn t be where we are today. We know it wasn t always easy traveling but we are much richer for the experience. Big thanks to all of you! Well, it wouldn t be a Feast of Fools live show with out someone sitting on a cake and this time Curtis took up the clarion call. He brought a lovely cake with the Steamworks bathhouse logo that he piped on himself. It was fun to see this silver fox in his Feast of Fools shirt sit on the cake. We just can t get enough of that cake sitting! It was also fun to have some of the listeners like John, Sid and Dolores participate in some of our antics on stage. John and sweet Dolores who came with her twin sister Mary actually ate some dogie treats that are fit for human pup consumption. What good sports. One of the sexiest moments of the evening was when our studly listener Sid (pictured here on the top right) joined in the cake sitting fun. He even did it bareback style. Boy did that make Heklina happy as she did to him what she is famous for. Eek! Eeek indeed. Amanda s fabulous act brought several listeners, including Karen Lewis who helped create the very first Feast of Fools live show in 1998, up on stage. They improvised an orgasmic orchestra. Wait till you hear it. It will either make you laugh or turn you on- and if it s the latter, please get some help Thanks also to Heklina for hooking us up with The Stud Bar, and finally, to all the people who donated money and bought t shirts to get us to California and back- a round of applause for you! You are the best and we couldn t do it without you. And lastly to Steven, we did this for you and all your hard work putting the website together for us. Thank you. Check out this fabulous photo gallery of pics from the event taken by Steven Peterson. Without you we re nothing- Feast of Fools Check out our sponsor: Steamworks Gym, Sauna and Baths.

FOF #613 - Drag Divas - 09.19.07
from Feast of Fools : Gay Fun Show September 19, 2007
The move towards the larger society s embrace of gay culture not always a clear line. The internet has done a great deal to allow GLBT people to carve out a voice for themselves in the world, this year I ve never seen more YouTube/Internet queer celebrities Perez Hilton, Chris Crocker and to some extent the sexually ambiguous Tay Zonday on network television talk shows than ever before. We re up for the top prize of podcasting, the People s Choice Podcast Award, which by many is seen as the Oscar of Podcasts. And you re all welcome to join us at the ceremony, Friday September 28 in Los Angeles. All this is big, because it feels like for the first time ever, you don t just have ONE person breaking out, but many are people doing it and doing it well. So if GLBT people are breaking the glass ceiling of online and broadcast entertainment, how have drag shows been impacted at your local gay bar? In today s interview we re talking to Trannyshack founder and host Heklina who will be interviewed by us in person at our LIVE Podcast event at the Stud Bar in San Francisco, Wednesday Oct. 3, 7pm. Heklina comments on how American society has changed with it s views about drag queens: I think that Drag queens are still the eunuch clown that s safe to laugh at. It s definitively not shocking anymore. So I dont know if America s really embraced it. The early 90s was when RuPaul and it was the first time any drag queen had mainstream exposure. I don t really see a drag queen breaking out like that [again.] Join Marc Felion and me, Fausto Fernós as we talk to Heklina about Britney Spears and why gay men just love their divas, why Trannyshack is a different kind of drag show, the live stage version of the Golden Girls, keeping it fresh, and her friendship with Scissor Sister s leading lady Ana Matronic, pictured here at Trannyshack taken a month ago by Steven Peterson. The podcast that tears up the runway, just like Mayor Daley did to Meigs Field - Feast of Fools.
