As a young man, Australian musician Brett Every had to beg his family to drop sports in favor of music. And lucky for us! Join us as Brett takes us to the land down under for a live music session with songs about Rue McClanahan, gay sailors and finding your Prince Charming.
Listen as we talk all things Australians- from pop culture items like Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Mad Max, Sydney Mardi Gras and Aussie Bum underwear to what tastes better, kangaroos or emus?

Fausto: The reason Sean Hayes and Kristen Chenoweth tongue-kissed at the Tony Awards was because they were replying to a recent controversial article in Newsweek that stated Sean Hayes gave a “wooden” performance as a gay man playing straight. The article went on to say that straight men could play gay roles much better than gay men could play straight roles. In the context of responding to the controversy surrounding the article, I thought the kiss was the perfect response, and not embarrassing to Hayes at all.
And yet to this date we’ve never seen Sean kiss any guy like that on any tv show or movie, right?

I would say that Brett every is more like Elvis Costello or even a little like James Taylor. TO me Jay Brannan’s urban poetry seems much more like the gay version of Joni Mitchell. Just listen to Ever after Happily…
