It just might be the gayest event in the whole midwest. On today’s show Jason Heidemann, the Gay & Lesbian editor for Time Out Chicago talks about Northalsted Market Days, the largest and gayest street […]
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.

Glad to hear Jason on the show today! He’s a friend of mine and as hilarious in person as he was on the show! Great show though, i laughed a lot!
Hey Jason, thanks for the Hell’s Fairies mention 🙂
Hope to see you all out this weekend!
is it market daze already? ah,yes…i can smell the funnel cakes, port-a-potties, and lube in the air already. I went out after the festival last year and halsted smelled like an open sewer. that being said, i’ll for sure be at “16 candles” on sunday. i can’t get enough of that 80s shit.
those gay-ass pylons are an insult to homos everywhere. gold-plated, life-size statues of cher, liza minelli, madonna, and judy garland would be less gay those oversized butt plugs.
good luck on the fundraising and have a blast out west. i love the “top five donors” box in the blog entry. it makes us $25 donors seem so important. PBS has nothing on you guys.
Pete, I’m going to have to get you to write some material for the show.
Fabulous show. I cant wait till I get to see the phallic statues in person. They remind me of fancy dildos. 🙂 Well yet another show of laughs and good times, I wish I could get up there for the street fair. Oh well, there is always next year. Great show ya’ll!

I want to see pics of the Hells Faries!
🙂 We have some photos here.
Ladies!!! I did what i could! Hope u guys have a drink on me! Love you!
What a great show! I’ve met Jason before as well – he’s a friend of a friend and we’ve hung out.. and I can vouch, he’s a funny guy and a lot of fun. And what a fun show this was– you guys are great together! I hope you have Jason back for more informative looks at what gay Chicago is all about (the city, not the publication).
I can’t wait for Market Days this year – they have a great musical lineup, which is a nice change… hell even the Chicago Gay Men’s Chorus is singing on Sunday… so check ’em out! (I won’t be singing this time though… 🙁 )
I’m sure I’ll run into Fausto and Marc somewhere along the line… hope to see some other listeners out and about!
Hey guys!
I got so excited about the Market Days…. It´s a shame I´m so far away… 🙁
Lovely show today!
kisses!
Oh boys I did not pick Spyners Pub, it was assigned to me! I just write what I’m told to. I blame Jason for the suggestion. Luckily he’s so lovable I won’t blame him for Fausto calling me out as fucking up on FOF!
Gents, thanks for the kind words about Big Jones yet again, you’re too kind!
