We better get a bigger shelf! Feast of Fun is thrilled and honored to be picked by the readers of the Chicago Reader as “Best Gay News Source” in the 2009 “Best of” Awards sponsored by the free weekly newspaper.
If your a first time visitor here you may be confused but we recently changed our name from Feast of Fools to Feast of Fun. If you don’t subscribe to the podcast, take a moment and click here to get it on iTunes and never miss a delicious show.
We’re excited to feel the hometown love for our daily talk show on extraordinary news, trends and interviews with a spicy gay twist. However, we were left scratching our heads wondering why the editors left out any voter testimonies and skipped on making any editorial comment of their own.
Many of you sung our praises on their site, so here are some of our favorites:
ALAN: “Feast of Fun is easily the best GLBT podcast. Their daily show excels in the scope of interviews, stories and hilarious banter that sets them leagues apart from any other form of media. Everyone in my office listens to the show, and most of us aren’t even gay.”
JAMIE: “Their interview of Shirley Phelps (FOF #690 – Shirley Phelps: An Unlikely Champion – 01.25.08) was the most complete interview of this controversial character I have ever heard. Not traditional journalism, but better than most news I see nowadays.”
HENRY: “FOF stands neck in neck with some of the best radio programs of all time, and deserves all the awards it gets.”
RICK: “FoF is the place to go for great news, up to date topics, interviews and… well… FUN!”
ROBERT: “Two Snaps Up!”
PHIL: “Marc and Fausto are ALWAYS great; informative and FUN! ”
ANNE: “FOF is fun and fresh.”
Congratulations to Windy City Media Group for being picked as the Editor’s choice for Best Gay News Source. Thank you to all who voted for us and don’t forget that Chicago is a city full of vibrant, wonderful publications, blogs and podcasts on a broad range of topics that appeal not just to GLBT folks, but to their friends everywhere. They don’t call it the Windy City for nothing!

Congratulations to my favorite queer broadcasters! You deserve every award and every kudos you receive. It is amazing all the hard work and dedication it requires to put together a program that is every bit as informative and well produced as any major radio program with big corporate funding.
