Over the past 15 years on Feast of Fun we’ve done some outrageous things which have captured people’s imagination, from refereeing drag queens battling it out to getting folks to sit on cakes as an anti-war and marriage equality statement, we made an impact.
But mainly we just wanted to see butts covered in frosting. Who doesn’t?
Today we’re taking a look at some magical, viral moments on Feast of Fun!

Lady Bunny has inspired Feast of Fun with her kooky humor and passion for grassroots culture. Even our web series Cooking with Drag Queens was influenced by Tom Rubnitz’s Pickle Surprise with Lady Bunny and RuPaul girling it up in the kitchen way back in 1989.
Today, Lady Bunny joins us from the slopes of gay ski week to celebrate as we embark on our 16th season of Feast of Fun.

Good evening world. It has come to our attention that RuPaul’s new TV show AJ and the Queen is red hot, with cameos from many Ru Girls as well as Beastmaster’s Marc Singer, Pee Wee’s Playhouse’s Lynne Marie Stewart and Adrienne Barbeau from the classic sitcom Maude.
Today Drew Droege joins us to take a look at AJ and the Queen, a campy road trip where mama Ru takes a gender non binary child on a road trip across America, and reads drag queens to filth while mending broken hearts along the way.

When Drag Race was just getting started, RuPaul said in a candid interview: “Celebrities are all truly rotten people.” Meaning it’s hard to meet with someone who inspires you because they don’t always live up to your expectations.
Today comedian Carly Ballerini joins us to take a look at what happens when marginalized people become stars and how the facade of fame usually comes with a few cracks.

Billy Porter, who plays the fierce and fabulous ballroom emcee Pray Tell in FX’s “Pose,” made history Sunday night by becoming the first openly gay black man to win an Emmy for lead actor in a drama category.
Today comedian Carma Nibarger joins to jump into the melée over Billy Porter’s side eye and RuPaul’s dismissal of diversity at the Emmy Awards.

Toni Morrison once said “If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, you must be the one to write it.” As a writer and editor, Toni Morrison uplifted black female voices in a culture that often dismissed the experiences of people of color.
Today comedian Matt Brown joins us to take a look at how Toni Morrison, who died last week at the age of 88, supported and inspired a whole generation of writers and artists.

With all the controversy surrounding this year’s “Notes on Camp” themed Met Gala, there’s a lot of confusion as to why a drag queen like RuPaul didn’t show up in drag and why pop star Katy Perry dressed up as a sparkly hamburger wasn’t camp at all.
Today we take a look at what camp is and isn’t with beauty blogger Jaymes Mansfield from RuPaul’s Drag Race.

From the day we we’re born, LGBTQ people are often at odds with a world that doesn’t understand or appreciate who we are. Like a phantom menace, this shame follows us even though as adults we are out and proud. Queer folks face significantly higher rates of depression, anxiety and drug and alcohol abuse.
Therapist Alan Downs describes this toxic cocktail of anger and rejection in his book “The Velvet Rage: Overcoming the Pain of Growing Up Gay in a Straight Man’s World, Second Edition.”
