FOF #762 – But I’m a Cheerleader

MaryLaPierre-RickyMartel-iTunesGive me and F! Give me an O! Give me another F! What does that spell? A-W-E-S-O-M-E P-O-D-C-A-S-T.

I know it’s a bit much, but bear with me. On today’s show we’re cheering our little lungs out for pride, yes, pride because California’s Supreme Court declared that gay couples in the nation’s most populous state can marry– a monumental victory for the gay rights movement Thursday that was greeted with tears, hugs, kisses and at least one instant proposal of matrimony.

We have MUCH to celebrate. It’s always exciting to see the dominoes of gay rights inevitably fall in a good direction.

Also, what’s very funny is that CNN had their “Dewey Defeats Truman” moment when they aired the wrong story, announcing the California Supreme Court ruling against the gays and lesbos.

I’ve worked in news media for over ten years and I know a lot of news stories are written and developed with both results prepared ahead of time. It is wonderful to see one of the big titans get it 100% wrong.

Oh happy day!

On today’s show we brought some cheerleaders to celebrate in the joy, Mary La Pierre and Ricky Martel of the Chicago Spirit Brigade, a fundraising cheerleading group that performs at just about every gay thing that happens in the Midwest.

Listen as we talk with Mary and Ricky about the ridiculousness of vegan sugar, where to meet DILF’s in Chicago and odd biological phenomena, like the gecko who got trapped inside a chicken’s egg.

faustollyDolly Parton is WAY pissed off, since shock jock Howard Stern edited her new audio book to make her say all sorts of filthy things, including her taste for “n-word cock” and that “Kenny Roger’s beard smells like boy’s cum.”

The Howard Stern show regularly uses altered clips from “Star Trek” actor George Takei, William Shatner, Oprah Winfrey and others.

As unsettling this may be, it’s also great publicity for Dolly’s new book and is sure to guarantee a rise in book sales. Is Dolly faking it or is she sincerely mad? Who knows, but remember, Don Imus lost his job for calling black women basketball players names on his show. Will Howard Stern fall from grace over his folly with Dolly?

Either way, Dolly has issued her own response, saying: “If there was ever going to be a lawsuit, it’s going to be over this… just wanted you to know that I am completely devastated by this.”

We take the time to give you the lines that sound divine because they rhyme- Feast of Fools.

    Maybe the “Vegan” sugar is made by vegan people. Or maybe its even made of vegan people? *gasp!* Homemade sugar scrubs are great! another great show you guys! love ya!

  2. Wesley says:

    Some refineries use bone char to filter cane sugar.

  3. Ogmaloki says:

    its even harder to find vegan makeup….

    In the words of Chris Crocker “LEAVE DOLLY ALONE!” …or she’ll sue your ass.
    I wonder if she really has a case. Remember the Jerry Falwell versus Hustler Magazine which was very similar and it was considered parody so Hustler Magazine won.

    I never thought I could feel more peppy listening to FOF and then you go and throw in a couple of cheerleaders. I’ll be smiling all day. Everybody have a great weekend.

  5. So white sugar made from sugar cane is passed through charcoal made from BONES, and that is why it’s not vegan! Coooll.

    It’s made with BONES. Creepy, sweet and delicious. Thanks for clearing that up Wesley.

    Love you too Matty. Vegan or not, everyone should avoid “high fructose corn syrup” or “corn syrup” whenever possible.

    “Love you too Matty. Vegan or not, everyone should avoid “high fructose corn syrup” or “corn syrup” whenever possible.”

    Fausto, I live in Georgia… where we make Pecan Pies.

    There ain’t no good pecan pie that doesn’t have at least half a thang of Karo in it.

    Also, let it be said that the “vegan” sugar comes from sugar beets which doesn’t require activated charcoal filtering. Cane sugar might… and that activated charcoal can come from animal, vegetable, or mineral…. so it’s not like all cane sugar has bone char in it’s processing…

  7. Ogmaloki says:

    and good luck finding corn syrup free soda….

  8. Trannylover says:

    You can get a coca cola made with sugar (and not corn syrup) in most countries, like Mexico.

    The corn syrup lobby put a LOT of perssure on soft drink makers to use their product, despite the obvious public health risks.

    I like Sugar………………………………….
    Lots of it……………it is what keeps me going.
    On and on and on……………..
    GIVE IT TO ME!
    Yeah……………………………………..
    On and on and on………………..
    Yeah!

    Love ya

  10. I would like to take this comment space to go on record and say, “I Love Black Cock!”

    Hey guys…great show, it got even better when you mentioned me! ;-) I’m flattered.

    As i mentioned in my original email, yesterday was a day of tears and joy. I should have taken the day off but went to work like a little trooper. at 9:50 i went to the supreme court website and hit refresh every 30 seconds. I knew something was up when right at 10 i hit refresh and got an error, extremely frustrating. I had three browser windows open trying to open the damn ruling. Pins and needles. While i was waiting for the document to open i received a blast email from a fellow EQCA boardmember. the message was only two words: WE WON! that was the first round of tears (my co-workers were equally excited with the news). I was worthless at work for the rest of the day. I printed the ruling, all 172 pages and actually read it. Its an amazing document that will go down in history. I finally left the office to go to the official celebration at the LGBT Center on Market Street. It was a rare 80 degree+ day in San Francisco. The center was packed and overflowing. I have the honor of knowing Kate Kendall and Shannon Minter of NCLR and Geoff Kors of EQCA. each time they spoke there were more tears and more laughter.

    After the official celebration there was an impromptu party in the castro. It was still in the 80′s at 10 pm, which is unheard of in San Francisco. It was pure joy everywhere you looked.

    Yesterday was amazing…but there is more work to be done. We’re facing a ballot initiative in november. if we succeed in defeating it we then will have passed all three tests: the people voted, the courts ruled and the legislature passed a marriage equality bill. Hopefully California can continue to lead the nation in civil and human rights… if you are interested in getting involved please visit eqca.org and equalityforall.com.

    thanks again for discussing it on the show! as of yesterday we all can drink from the same fountain!

  13. I can’t believe how hard I laughed at the Dolly Parton audiobook, when I listened to its entirety on YouTube. Tears…falling on my keyboard. Sweet tittyfucking Christ.

  14. SAL-E says:

    I showed my Mom and she was beyond shocked…………….
    she was like: OH MY GOSH…………….SHE DID NOT SAY THAT!
    I was like: You see…………….she’s Normal.
    Love ya

    I am the only gay female member of the Chicago Spirit Brigade…which I was not mentioned…he he…

    Anyway, I love the piece! I am also engaged to be married! I don’t even understand why it’s any issue. As long as we love each other, and are over 18, it shouldn’t matter. I am not married to everone… I am married to my fabulous woman!

    Awesome Show!!

    Kisses, Maria Star

    OMG! I would just like to say that Ricky Martel is totally hot! What is wrong with the boys in Chicago that they would let a beautiful man like that be single?!? Ricky if you were here I would totally be your BF or at least your BFF
