Just hours after “DADT” was repealed, U.S. airman Randy Phillips videotaped his coming out to his father over the phone and posted it on YouTube. Today, we talk to Randy about the video that made him a Youtube sensation and put a human face to end of the discriminatory DADT.
Fausto Fernós is the host of iTunes’ #1 LGBT talk show, the Feast of Fun podcast, which he produces and hosts with his partner, Marc Felion.
Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Fausto Fernós created the Feast of Fools in 1998 as wacky artists variety show in Chicago, Illinois. Feast of Fun grew out of an audio blog to promote the live show into the world’s most downloaded talk show aimed for gay people.
When he’s not blogging, recording or sleeping, Fausto can be found at the gym or appreciating the beauty found in nature.

The best interview so far in 2012. What a sweet, nice and cute guy! A pity I did not go to the gay Oktoberfest in 2011, would have loved see him in Lederhosen. So sexy!
Randy, I am also near Frankfurt, if you need a local to show you around feel free to ask me.
Great podcast guys. Randy is super hot and has a very sexy voice. Just so you know that since you guys came back from vacation my Android app = Beyondpod – is not downloading yours podcasts any longer. It worked fine before your holiday break.
Try adding the rss feed again- you can find it at http://www.feastoffun.com/plus
Did not help to add it again. Still no podcast downloads. The app is beyondpod.
I’m not familiar with that app. Try iTunes.

Will this interview ever get posted on your Youtube channel? I’m not a subscriber and although I loved the parody vid, I just want to hear the Randy interview.

For those that haven’t yet subscribed to Plus, I highly recommend that you subscribe. For two Starbucks or one Martini you can get a month of shows like the Randy Howard interview. It’s a great value — a two-for — you get entertained and educated. I can’t live without my Daily FoF.
Great show Fausto and Marc. A terrific interview, it had a really great flow and you got a really good sense of who he is. And Fausto, you really rode the flirty line without wigging out Randy — just teasing.
On a serious note, I have to say Randy Howard is a very well-spoken, mature young man. He has a very open, easy way of talking to people and has something real to say. I re-watchd his videos after and wow you can really see the emotion and fear he felt in coming out to his parents. Very brave of him to share it with the world. I think most of us can relate to the videos. Even though I came out later in life than Randy, I felt the same fear in coming out to my family.

Who is Randy Howard? Is he one of the lesser known Three Stooges?
Dear god! Randy, don’t move to Vegas. Las Vegas is a hard luck town, and it will get you down. Don’t move to California either; it’s not the glamorous place they make it out to be, far from it, not much better than Vegas.

Listening to thIs made me feel like I was on a first date with Randy right with you guys. Now if I could just get a second one!
Great show! Really enjoy getting to know Randy Phillips better and see that his story has a happy ending. I want to see you guys make a workout video together.
