Feast of Fun: Gay Talk Show

• I Almost Went Blind

  Sometimes life forces you to hit the pause button. Not because you wanted to, but because your body says, “sit down honey, we’ve got work to do.”After nearly two decades of podcasting, we thought we’d seen it all, until this summer, when I had emergency eye surgery to save my vision, and Marc had his heart shocked back into rhythm after a scary bout of atrial fibrillation.Between the two of us, we had enough hospital bracelets to start our own line of jewelry. But through all of it, we learned a few things: about getting older, facing fear, and finding humor when life gets dizzy or blurry.On today’s show, we’re sharing what really happened, what we learned about resilience and love, and how to keep your sense of humor when the road gets bumpy. It’s our comeback episode: I Almost Went Blind, a story about healing, gratitude, and seeing life in a whole new light. <3Help Fausto & Marc Fight Blindness and Heart Disease:★ gofundme.com/help-fausto-marc-fight-blindness-and-heart-diseaseFollow us on Instagram:★ instagram.com/faustofernos ★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus--• ICE can’t handle the cold. • A new Miss Piggy movie written by Broadway drag comedy diva Cole Escola is in the works. • Yoko Ono‘s art comes to Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art. • Zohran Mamdani becomes New York City’s most progressive mayor since La Guardia. • Marriage Equality is safe, for now.

• Topher Payne: The Tree Who Set Healthy Boundaries

  One of the most divisive books in children’s literature is Shel Silverstein’s "The Giving Tree," the story of a dysfunctional relationship between a boy and a sentient apple tree who gives him everything she has, from her apples and leaves to her branches and trunk, until all that's left is a stump.Meant as a parable of unconditional love, writer Topher Payne thought our doomed pair needed a better ending to their sad story. He wrote "The Tree Who Set Healthy Boundaries," where the tree learns to say no and lives a long, happy life because of it.Today, playwright and Hallmark screenwriter Topher Payne joins us to revisit "The Giving Tree" and other classic children's books with questionable moral compasses, and to explore what happens when we give these stories the therapy they clearly need.What's the trouble with "Green Eggs and Ham" and "Where the Wild Things Are?" READ "Topher Fixed It"★ https://www.topherpayne.com/fixed-itFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:★ instagram.com/topherwrites★ instagram.com/faustofernos ★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus– Topher takes us behind the scenes of his films with the Hallmark Channel, where the snow is always falling, the cookies are always warm, and love is just one conveniently timed misunderstanding away.

• Dan Cass Escapes from Alligator Auschwitz

  After threatening Americans with raising their taxes by 68%, President Trump managed to strong-arm Republicans in Congress into passing his Big Burglary Bill: a sweeping economic and policy package that slashes healthcare funding, shuts down hospitals, inflates ICE’s budget to be larger than the Marines’, opens new concentration camps in Florida, adds $3.4 trillion to the national deficit, and gives billionaires even more tax breaks than ever before.So why didn’t more people try to stop it? Today, comedian Dan Cass joins us to break down the nightmare that is the Big Burglary Bill, and the swampy new detention centers dubbed “Alligator Auschwitz,” where Trump adviser Lara Loomer openly called for feeding all 65 million Latin Americans living in the US  to alligators in Florida.FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:★ instagram.com/dankkass★ instagram.com/faustofernos ★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus-• How Republicans use tactics like “flooding the zone” to make people give up.• How to figure out which news media you can trust.• Dan Cass opens up about being neurodivergent in the comedy world of Chicago.

• Queeny Bitch and the Windy City Comedy Festival

  When the world is falling apart, sometimes the best thing you can do is make art. Just because Republicans are doing everything they can to crush the joy in people’s hearts, doesn't mean you can’t dumpster dive a feather boa, borrow a pair of heels and put on a show.Remember, that some of the greatest works of art have blossomed in the shadows of fascism. Today we're talking with comedian and showbiz mogul Queeny Bitch—a comic, provocateur, and now one of the masterminds behind the Windy City Comedy Festival, where hundreds of top-tier degenerates will be taking over the city to show off their funniest, filthiest, and most unhinged acts. Listen as we dive into the radical act of doing absolutely nothing, why she loudly refuses to move to Los Angeles, her six-year survival story in comedy, and how disillusionment turned out to be her secret weapon.WINDY CITY COMEDY FESTIVAL:https://www.windycitycomedyfest.comFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: ★ instagram.com/queenycomedy★ instagram.com/faustofernos ★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus--• Why were the Kardashians invited to Jeff Bezos’ extravagant wedding?• China cracks down on popular gay erotic fiction written by straight women.• Almost 200,000 people march against Hungary’s Pride ban in one the country’s biggest protests.

• From Burlesque to Bikes: Tamale Sepp on Dykes on Bikes, Pride, and Queer Power

  A beloved Pride tradition around the world is the roar of Dykes on Bikes: a fierce motorcade of motorcycle mamas who kick off the parade with a chrome-plated spectacle of queer power, and noise. They first rolled onto the scene at San Francisco Pride in the mid-’70s and quickly became a staple all over the world. Inspired by those heavy-metal heroines, Chicago’s own Bikes and Mics emerged—a no-rules posse of queer performers, riders, and creatives. This year, the group celebrates their 10th anniversary with a high-octane Mad Max–themed ride, complete with leather, dust, and rumors of a Tina Turner impersonator showing up as Aunty Entity.Today, comedian and motorcycle mama Tamale Sepp joins us to dive into the wild, fabulous history of Bikes and Mics and Dykes on Bikes—two-wheeled revolutions led by fierce queer women who love a little heavy metal rumbling between their thighs.BIKES AND MICS: https://www.bikesandmics.comFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM:★ instagram.com/tamalerocks★ instagram.com/faustofernos★ instagram.com/marcfelionPlus-• JoJo Siwa cancels upcoming Chicago Pride performance amid controversy over dating a man. • Comedian Margaret Cho says Ellen DeGeneres was “not nice” and acted like a “mean girl.”• Sidetrack, one of the world’s largest gay bars, plans to open the first-ever airport gay bar at Chicago’s O’Hare Terminal 1.• Openly queer musician Daniel Hamrick hijacks a ‘Straight Pride’ event with a trans power ballad.
