Today much of the Internet is covered in darkness to protest SOPA and PIPA, two obnoxious pieces of legislation pushed by corporate Hollywood to shut down the Internet in the name of fighting piracy.
But this podcast is available since, you paid for it!

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.
There’s a rumbling in the distance, a thundering of cocks as Chicago is about to...

Some other creative names I’ve come across- by way of CVS employees, friends who are teachers in urban communities, or interns at my own job:
Jhyna (pronounced “Shaina”)
Oranjello (orange jello)
Tanzinique
Kilala
La-a (pronounced La”dash”a)
My all time favorite:
Imacula
I like Uretha a lot too.
That’s crazy!
This is why I love the ability for people to post images on the site as comments, because of this. THIS.
Thanks for posting this Rick!
There is a lot of piracy nowadays but I would not say less people go the cinema. I think certain movies which people really want to see they still often watch at the cinema and others they watch maybe online. Due the fact that movies are online available after some days the movie was published anyway companies should be more creative how to sell their movies.
big protest day for SOPA/PIPA! some sites were pretty good about blacking out, while a bunch of other sites were just kinda lazy about it. Other sites who were on the list of sites that were gonna black out, backed out of it. I can only hope that people actually did something by signing online petitions, contacting their Senators, or anything, I mean, people are pretty lazy, getting them to make phone calls or meet these politicians in-person is asking too much for most people.
PIPA will be voted on in the Senate next week. If it gets passed, well, we’ll be fucked.
nice discussion about George Lucas and the not-so-great legacy he has left behind for his Star Wars saga. You guys brought up a lot of points that were brought up in this video about the same topic done by Red Letter Media.com http://redlettermedia.com/half-in-the-bag/the-people-vs-george-lucas-and-star-wars-discussion/ The same guy who did those epic reviews of the Star Wars sequels, where he completely took them apart and critiqued them, interviewed a film maker who make a documentary called The People vs. George Lucas, which is basically covers the subject you guys talked about. I grew up with these movies as a kid, so I’m on the side of the Star Wars fans who wish that George Lucas would just leave the original Star Wars trilogy alone. Adding in the “noooo” for Darth Vader in my fave scene of Return of the Jedi was pretty offensive. Fausto hit it right on the head with his criticism of Lucas’s editing to that scene.
great show as always!
“reviews of the Star Wars sequels”***
ooops I mean’t Star Wars PREquels
well at least now with Lucas being all butthurt, we will never see any SEquels to the original Star Wars trilogy.
I love Red Letter Media! I wonder what the narrator who does their videos really looks like.
Looks like the protests had an impact.
PIPA support collapses, with 13 new Senators opposed

What amazes me is that the swell of oposition was such a surprise to the politicians. Boy are they out of touch!
Ron Paul is a conservative Christian racist who has rebranded himself as a libertarian. Don’t be fooled. He hates gay people. He would never legalize pot. As much of an isolationist as he may be, he would never be able to resist the Congressional Military Industrial Complex.
Thanks Than for your post! I actually think it is irresponsible in the election cycle for any media outlet to engage in these casual intellectually lazy supportive statements about Ron Paul. I’m deeply disturbed by the way so many progressives latch on tot he one or two things about him that are appealing (anti-war, pro drug legalization) and seem willfully blind to all the horrific things this man believes in and advocates for. He could become a viable spoiler as a 3rd party candidate, and disturbingly draw progressives away from supporting the President. This is likely to be a close election and every vote counts. We can’t have a repeat of 2000 when Nader drew enough progressive voters away from Gore that it allowed for the Supreme Court to foist Bush on us (for which we are still paying the price)
The presidential election is too important this year, so I challenge Marc and Fausto to be vigilant this year and not to let comments like that go by.
a correction. Marc Meron’s podcast; WTF, is not produced by NPR. He independently produces it in his garage – just like you guys. He used to be an employee of Air America, but that was before he started his podcast.
We work out of our sun room. I think his shows do air on public radio sometimes. I feel like I’ve heard them advertised.
Brian Sweeny was a great guest to have on. More of him and people like him please.
