We met entertainment producer David Charpentier backstage, as a tornado roared through Pridefest, the world’s largest LGBT music festival. David can handle just about any intense situation with any artist, no matter how extreme the circumstances.
Now he’s managing some of the biggest drag queens in entertainment while living with Addison’s disease and type one Diabetes. How does it do it?

Yeesh, there’s star requests for four coffee makers . . . I’m assuming so they can have four different flavors at their disposal? Would they consider a Keurig or Flavio coffee machine where you can take a little coffee packet, put it in the machine and make a fresh cup that’s your exact flavor? We have a Keurig machine in my office and my chiropractor has one in his office too. Cups come out in less than a minute fresh and hot and everyone can choose their own flavor.
A lil something from a wise wise woman… “It’s not what people call you but what you answer to.”
People need to get over themselves…
I know a lot of people have heard that quote from Tyler Perry’s Madea’s movies, but where does it originate?
My friend Jeff says it’s W.C. fields. but I can’t find any sources claiming that.
Don’t think my last comment posted…
I believe it’s a W.C. Fields quote. But I meant I heard it from a BMW ;]
Madea has been saying that in pretty much every movie before Ronnie did, FYI. But she sure knew how to deliver a line!
And here it is. W.C. Feilds said it. I’m sure he was drunk at the time.

Well I’ve never watched any of Tyler perrys movies so I missed that line there.
But yeah people need to get over themselves…I personally don’t care if people say the F word or the N word or if they call me a beaner/wetback because I’m Mexican. Who gives a shit?! Words are only as strong as you make them.
Excellent podcast today. I loved hearing all the behind the scenes DIRT. AND Charpentier is a cutie.
Really enjoyed this podcast!! Keep on interviewing “insiders”. You guys are doing a GREAT job of promoting Pridefest. So wish I could be there this year, and at the Doubletree lounge!!
there’s a typo! 🙂
“and type one Diabetes. How does it do it?” the first IT should be HE. 😀 heheh.
I just paused mid-show to look for the link to share this episode with my neighbor cuz the stories are hysterical! haha.
