Last fall the nation held its breath as the U.S. Government finally accepted all of our gay and lesbian troops.

Just hours after “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was repealed, U.S. airman Randy Phillips, a 21-year-old gay member of the Air Force stationed in Germany, videotaped a phone call he made to his father and posted it on YouTube- nervous and exhausted, in his bedroom with a map of the world behind him, Randy told his dad that he was gay.

NOTE: THis podcast is available for download until Sunday Feb 4th, 2012 and made possible by the financial support of listeners like you. Upgrade your account to Feast of Fun Plus + and have access to all our award winning podcast.

The internet and the rest of the world fell in love with the raw emotion of Randy’s live coming out. The video reflected the relief felt by many as the discriminatory era of DADT came to an end. He later followed it up with a video coming out to his mother.

Identical cousins? Fausto and Randy do look a bit like each other.

Both videos became such sensations that we made our own video, Gay Soldier Comes Out to Pizza Man-LIVE, because we thought “Who is he going to come out to next?” How about the pizza guy?

Minutes after posting our parody, Randy tweeted to his followers “This is the best thing I have ever seen…I hope you get a billion views.” All of these videos have now gone viral.

Today we’re talking to Randy Phillips from his town home in Germany about what life is like after the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, were there any gay military parties and does he now have a boyfriend?

Listen as we ask Randy if he was worried that his coming out videos could have backfired.

What if his mom and dad rejected him?

How to look good in lederhosen.

And Randy has some new shirtless workout and cooking videos that take us from his frying pan and into the fire. Feel the burn!

18-year-old comedian Miles Jai had had it “up to here” with people asking him to “like my status” on Facebook, so he made a video to poke fun at the phenomenon.

Remember that “Leave Britney Alone” kid from YouTube? A lot has happened to Chris Crocker since his video went viral.

Almost overnight, a young gay kid’s tearful rant on bullying and Britney Spears made Chris Crocker an international sensation. It also made the staff at YouTube and Google really nervous, wondering is this the face we want to represent our company?

Yes indeedy, an effeminate little teenager from the south made a giant multi-billion dollar corporation squirm.

Chris Crocker now looks a lot different from his former self, letting his natural brown hair grow in and adding 15 pounds of muscle onto his now very butch body. Why has Chris gotten so masculine all of a sudden?

Miss Lola Rose and her daughter Jill Abrams.

It’s a lot of fun to hang out with a strong sassy woman who doesn’t take crap from any one. Sassy divas can make the best friends, but don’t always make the best mothers.

Today we’re talking to video blogging sensation Miss Lola Rose. When her two kids came out as gay, she panicked and asked them to remain in the closet to keep up appearances.

Since then, Lola’s come about 180 degrees and fully supports her children and is a proud advocate for Equality. So much in fact, her most popular video “Mom on Her Two Gay Kids” was yanked off of Youtube at the beginning of Pride month when haters flagged it enough times to set off their automated system.

Only because of public outcry was the video brought back up, and it’s because of efforts of people like Lola Rose and her daughter Jill Abrams that the video sharing giant is aware of its shortcomings when dealing with LGBT voices and conservative backlash.

Join us today as we talk to one of my all time favorite video bloggers, the hilarious Miss Lola Rose about everything– why she loves President Bill Clinton so darn much.

Lola weighs in on Anderson Cooper, Jodie Foster, Ricky Martin and Tom Cruise.

Why Hollywood is full of illiterate low-lifes.

How to be the best mom to your gay kids.

And making up for lost time and the healing power of forgiveness.

NOTE: This show is part one of a two part series, tomorrow the tables get turned as we talk to her daughter the filmmaker Jill Abrams about her family and she interviews us!

We love giggly, exuberant voices.

Do you remember Paul Lynde’s snarky laugh on Bewitched? Charles Nelson Reilly’s troubled moan on the Match Game? Or Richard Hunt’s sympathetic meeps as Beaker on the Muppet Show?

The memorable affectations delivered by these wonderful gay men in cartoons, sitcoms and game shows have amused audiences for years. You may not have even known they were gay, but it sure sounded like they were. Even now, actors, podcasters and video bloggers continue this great tradition, but as openly gay men.

Today we’re talking to video blogger Jonnie Jenkins who just started posting his videos on YouTube as the Phat Gay Kid a little over a month ago. His over the top clucks and giggles have quickly endeared him to a huge audience. Don’t dismiss him as just another lonelygirl15 starving for attention- Jonnie’s received a lot of praise from radio stations, bloggers, and even musician Ke$ha and comedian George Lopez.

We bet dollars to donuts that he’ll be on the Out 100 list thisyear.

Listen as we talk with Jonnie about how he’s managed to build his following so quickly, his enthusiasm for hot air ballooning, and how he handles the people who cringe at his outlandish mannerisms and song stylings.

Plus all the hot news:

A gay pride parade in Russia turns into a flash mob to outwit police.

Madonna, Elton John, and other human rights groups succeed in getting the President of Malawi to pardon a gay couple imprisoned for having a gay wedding.

And a new study by Leiden University in the Netherlands gives further proof that gaydar really exists.

Being born into a famous family is never easy, so it’s refreshing to hear that James Duke Mason, the son of 80s pop star Belinda Carlisle of The Go-Go’s, and grandson of Hollywood actor James Mason is not only well adjusted, he’s fabulously gay.

Duke (as he likes to be called) came out at the age of 14 when he pitched a fit because his mom said she was too busy to take him to see the iconic gay film, Brokeback Mountain. Since then, he’s gotten politically active by working for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and video blogging on YouTube where he enthusiastically spreads a message of pride.

Here is a photo of Duke taken at a pool party with actor Ryan Phillippe. Want to know what transpired during this party? Listen to the show and find out.

This fall, Duke is moving to Los Angeles where he plans on studying film-making and politics with the hopes of bringing a new energy to the gay rights movement.

Today Duke talks with us over the Internet from his home in the south of France. Listen as we talk to Duke about his film debut in You Can’t Have it All, his mom’s new autobiography, “Lips Unsealed: A Memoir,”where she admits it was cool in the 80s to kiss girls, and why he took down most of his YouTube videos.

Duke has some strong words for closeted gay celebrities and politicians and addresses head-on why some young people must embrace the label of being gay.

All Hail Queen Joan, the boogie woogie queen from the Bayou! We are thrilled to have discovered musician Joan Atwell’s YouTube channel, Ivory Tickler Mama, where she plays love songs on her accordion to all the animals on her farm.

Think of Joan as the horse whisperer but instead of whispering to the horses she’s banging on her accordion and wailing out her favorite ditties to all the cats, dogs and cows.

Joan claims her menagerie of animals love her music and we do too! We love hearing her animals bark and moo along in a wonderfully wacky chorus to her music. It’s just a matter of time before Joan’s wild videos become a viral hit.

While her husband works a long hard day in a chicken processing plant, Joan also jams on the piano with her mom, who she calls momma Kat, or is it her cat named momma cat? We’re not sure.

Listen as Madame Joan talks about her creative life as a video blogger, eating beaver and singing telegrams as Elva, Elvis’ kissing cousin who taught him everything he knows.

Joan also pulls out the accordion and wows us with some great American classic tunes.

Susan Boyle! She says she’s never been kissed, lives with her cat Pebbles, and the video clip of her first appearance on the reality tv show Britain’s Got Talent has become the fifth most watched video online of all time.

She finished second place in the reality TV show and bloggers are shocked that she didn’t win the top prize, while newspapers are declaring her a one hit wonder, not deserving of her overnight success.

She’s been reported to have entered a private London clinic for exhaustion following the intense appearance on the talent show.

Is the battle over Susan Boyle about her as a singer or about the legitimacy of new media? After all, it was the internet that made her a international success.

The internet helped him connect with the greater world around him when he couldn’t create a gay-straight alliance in his school and he left to be home schooled. To grow up a gay, eccentric and flamboyant teen has never been easy especially in a small conservative town in Tennessee.

If it weren’t for the internet where would Chris Crocker be?

Today Chris is one of the most watched and imitated video bloggers online. His iconic video of himself weeping and imploring the public to “Leave Britney Alone” made him a household name.

Chris’ videos represent the dramatic change we’re seeing in how we create and consume media. Chris’ videos are just as popular as the YouTube Presidential debates or the evening news. For millions of people everywhere, his opinion matters.

Despite this, old media companies are threatened by Chris popularity because of his bold desire to express himself at any cost. They can’t control him and he doesn’t need them.

It’s easy to question the authenticity of Chris’ videos because he’s just that good. He’s eerily in touch with his dark emotions and quickly cuts through the hypocrisy of the “haters” with his wit and words.

“Leave Britney Alone” proves to be one of the most emotionally over the top videos I’ve ever seen online. I believe Chris cried not so much for Britney Spears but rather to express the pain and suffering he endured having gone through the hell of homophobia as a teenager. In many ways, Chris Crocker represents the tortured gay youth who fought back and lived.

Chris Crocker really is a huge fan of Britney Spears, even though she has conservative leanings and a complete lack of interest in gay rights of any kind. Remember, she was FOR the War in Iraq and said in many interviews that we should “stand by our President” despite his reckless policies.

Chris sees something bigger inside of Britney. He believes her to be a liberal person trapped by the conservative world around her.

People can’t leave Britney alone or any other tragic celebrity for that matter because they help us cope with our everyday problems. When we see someone richer, more attractive and more powerful than us struggling to hold on, it makes it easy to come to peace with our place in the world.

On today’s show Chris Crocker joins us to talk in-depth about his popular video blog, his passion for following people’s horoscope and how he may team up with Puerto Rican TV astrologer Walter Mercado to reach a hip, young new audience. We also talk with Chris about how he personally deals with the vicious hate online and offline, what he thinks of all those parody videos of his work and where in Los Angeles you should hang out if you want to hook up with Chris.

And we put to rest the rumors surrounding Chris’ HIV/AIDS conspiracy as a government biological weapon gone wrong and being vilified for simply being himself and being good at it!

Hailing from the great white north, Deven Green was a runway model, a competitive ice skater and the first female voice for the Canadian movie phone.

Her husband, Joel Bryant, sent Deven the camp sensation, Brenda Dickson’s condescending 1980s “Welcome to My Home” video which has become a Youtube sensation. Devin recognized the parody gold waiting to be mined in the video and her lampoon soon became very popular on Youtube.

The spoof gained her a lot of attention and she’s received a copyright infringement notice from Brenda’s lawyers.

Deven also works another wonderful character, Betty Bowers, America’s Best Christian. Betty lays it out on why she truly is deserving of God’s gifts and why you are not.

Listen as we talk with Deven about what’s it like being an outspoken, fierce new media diva in Hollywood, her hot husband actor Joel Bryant and doing comedy shows in men’s prisons.

Plus Devin Shares her insights on becoming a comedy sensation on Youtube!

Did the Kaballah religion destroy Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s marriage or was it Madonna’s obsession with perfection? Sources close to Ritchie say that sex with Maddonna was “cuddling up with gristle” because she worked out four hours everyday.

New website for Christian nymphomaniacs who just can’t get enough of married, monogamous sex. i have a feeling this website is going to get out of control in no time at all. Eventually it will become “Swinging for Jesus.”

Regina definitely ended up a causality after her last appearance on the Feast as Fools in an episode we now lovingly call the drag queen wars. You can read the comments yourself about the public’s and her fellow drag queen’s reaction to the show. Let’s just say, it wasn’t kind.

It’s hard to keep a good bitch down and Regina is back to tell about the subsequent fallout over her words about a queen who did or didn’t “know her words.”

We also chat about which local drag queen looks like Jocelyn Wildenstein and the horrors of plastic surgery. Just how did this wealthy New York City woman get any doctor to allow her to look so bizzare? How much is too much? Would you get it done? And if so, what? We want to know!

Say hello to Haunea- the penis shaped planetoid named after the Hawaiian god of fertility. It is one of five know planetoids and has two satellites “Hi’iaka” in honour of Hawaii’s patron goddess and “Namaka” a water spirit.

Nepal grants legal rights to lesbians, gay men and trans people. Bishnu Adhikari, 21, became the first person to receive a “third gender” classification on a legal document.

The musical highway gets paved into silence. A section of a California highway had grooves cut into the road surface to play the William Tell Overture which is alos the theme to the Lone Ranger. neighbors complained that it was noisy and sounded awful.

As one of the most viewed video bloggers on YouTube, some of B. Scott’s video entries have been seen by about the same number of people who watch American Idol.

Like other queer YouTube celebrities, B. Scott represents a fundamental shift in people gaining access to a large, mainstream audience. As B. Scott has said many times- “outsiders are taking over.”

I guess the revolution will be televised after all, and like many times before, fabulous divas like B. Scott are leading the way.

And what a revolution it is! B. Scott’s videos usually have him wearing nothing but a towel, passionately preaching his message of inclusively and embracing your unique self.

B Scott has ventured into music and one of his fans even wrote music for a his Paw Paw dance that he made famous in his videos. Marc was teasing B. Scott that his Paw Paw dance was some kind of Santeria or Voodoo dance to put curse on Martha Stewart’s dog Paw Paw that just passed away. B Scott denies any involvement in the sad passing and insists that he loves dogs, animals and Martha Stewart. Make sure you subscribe to our weekly Feast Blast and you’ll get a free song from B. Scott next week.

How did he get there? Listen to today’s show and find out B. Scott’s secrets to video blogging and cultivating a following on YouTube.

We chat with B. Scott about why he loves to get naked, his thoughts on hate speech and how easy it is to post hateful comments on YouTube. We also discuss what keeps him going through the rough times and what he and Chris Crocker said about Perez Hilton when they recorded a video session together but later edited out.

Urging you to B all you can B- Feast of Fools.
