FOFA #314 – Castraticast

Jun 25, 2007 · 31731 views


We’re so excited because today we have one of the world’s oldest and most famous Castrati, the incomparable Alessandro Moreschi, pictured on the right. Click on the audio file at the bottom of the Wikipedia page for Moreschi to hear him sing. It’s freaky.

Alessandro joins his lesser known Castrato singing buddies, Carlo Cuttheballi and Benito Nonutzis to talk about his new album of religious music.

Also Marc, Fausto and V-Marr talk tons about suicide, gay teens, Star Trek’s up and coming 40th anniversary events, Christie’s Star Trek garage sale, and Albert Perry the 75 year old bodybuilder, pictured here.

If you’re a gay teen contemplating suicide, call The Trevor Project- operates the nation’s only round-the-clock, toll-free suicide prevention hotline for GLBTQQ youth. (1-866-4-U-Trevor)

Come see a live recording of the Feast of Fools podcast at the Apple Store, Saturday May 27th from 7-8pm! Best of all it’s FREE.

    We miss Vmarr more than you- that’s for sure! She was a big part of our life. We don’t know when she will be back on the show but you can email her at victorialamarr@gmail.com and ask her directly.

    This was the first episode I listened to and I was hooked. I remembered how I wish I could get to Chicago for that Apple store meet-n-greet. Hope I can see you guys when i make it up to Chicago later this summer.

  3. Aww…poor Vmarr…I hope she’s doing ok. Maybe one day she’ll return to our beloved FOF.
