They say it’s “history in the making”- University of Missouri defensive lineman Michael Sam has come out of the closet, and is likely to be drafted into the National Football League as the first openly gay professional football player.
Joining us today is the incorrigible Brian Sweeney, who really couldn’t give a damn about this, but always has something funny to say anyway. Is Michael Sam’s coming out going to mean anything?

Many more sons of bitches need to die off before gay doesn’t matter. We live in our cloisters that reinforce our narrow worldview. We seek out like-minded people and surround ourselves with them. We are insulated against the mean-spirited bigots that still have a problem with our ‘lifestyle’. They are out there in droves.

If you’re taking suggestions for a film to talk about on the podcast, my suggestion is 1981’s “Heartbeeps”, the movie that killed Andy Kaufman’s film career. I just learned of this movie for the first time from a comment Fausto made here on feastoffun.com a few weeks back. Unlike Sharktopus, which was designed to be a “bad movie” on purpose, this was a film that was intended to be a mainstream success but instead was one of the lowest-rated films of all time.
It’s the story of a man robot and a woman robot who wander through the forest making awful corny robot jokes about love, marriage, and the difference between men and women. Personally, as a fan of cheesy science fiction and corny humor, I enjoyed this film. But, its target audience was children, and I can’t imagine being 10 years old and sitting all the way through it. Interestingly, when I look at reviews of it on Netflix and IMDB, most of them are from people who had the reverse reaction — loving the film as a kid, hating it as an adult.
You guys should watch blackfish!
Hey guys, if Brian Sweeney had a vagina and that vagina had a monlogue…what would it say? Also, we need a Brian Sweeney cocktail so I can drink it up. Thanks.

Yellow Chartreuse
Cointreau

Fix yourself a Brian Sweeney every time Marc and Fausto ask Brian when he’s going to kill himself.
