What a historic day. President Obama rocked the nation by announcing his support for same-sex marriage! Today we take a closer look at why Obama made such a landmark statement about marriage equality, all the reactions from the good, the bad and the funny, and what our leader Lady Gaga had to say about it.

This is one of the funniest episode name and art you created. I loved Obama on the Unicorn with rainbow beams lol
This picture is all over facebook, and you NEED to make this into a t-shirt before somebody else does.
Great idea! Getting to work on that right now. The artwork is a re-creation based on an anonymous artist, I put him against a new field and made the rainbows prettier. So part of the art was remade for our dimensions by me.
Loved the show, super funny! And I borrowed your artwork for my facebook banner, giving you credit of course
Are we friends on Facbeook mister handsome?
Haha, just sent you a request
I was reading through those tweets about North Carolina double-banning same sex marriage, and while it’s awful, NC is the 30th? or 31rst state to ban gay marriage? Texas banned gay marriage in 2005, so I guess since I live in a state where same sex marriage has been banned for 7 years now, it does not shock me as much.
I think Obama coming out in support of same-sex marriage is both a political move and a heartfelt one, but like I said in another post, I won’t be surprised if he slightly alters that viewpoint further into the campaign.
also, that scandal with John Travolta sounded like a scene from a gay porno, although in this situation it is not as sexy since it was not consensual on the masseur’s part. Whether it is true or not, I am sure there will be a gay porno out soon parodying this with some John Travolta look a like and a twinky masseur or something.
As a North Carolinian, I really wanted to argue with all the insults thrown at my state… sadly, I can’t. It was spot on. Fuck this place. :-\
Definitely looking forward to the Willam interview. It’d be fabulous to have Latrice as well, and even Phi Phi again. Can’t wait!
Yeah, Latrice! I want Jiggly too, can you have her on the show?
I feel I need to clairfy my comment that the guys mentioned on the show today – “There’s one against.” It was in response to someone on Fausto’s Facebook page going off on a (lengthy) tangent against Obama’s announcement. I’m very much FOR the announcement and everything it represents.
Great show, guys!
Sorry if I didn’t make that clear Rick! xoxoxo

Great show! I am cynical about Obama’s announcement. I don’t know what took him so long. I found Lady Bunny’s blogpost on HuffPo to be very insightful.
Fausto my band Corporal out of Brooklyn is releasing a limited-run vynil single that has 2 versions of our song “Obama” on it. We would love to use your amazing artwork for the cover. You can hear one of our versions of the song on our website http://www.corporalband.com. The other can be heard on iTunes. We would make sure all due attention for it went back to Feast Of Fun. Let me know if this is something you’d be into discussing. Sorry to post this – I couldn’t figure out how to contact you directly. Thanks!
Sure thing Ray! Email us your release forms and audio files:
