I recorded this in Detroit, my hometown.

I talk about one of the two things I normally avoid discussing.

I tell a story about the Holy Spirit possessing religious pre-teens.

My chihuahua has an attitude problem but I still managed to get her on the podcast.

I saw Flags of Our Fathers and I'M IN IT!

 

I've missed you, internets.

Hey everybody.  I've been at the hospital all day for my surgery.  I'll get into details later.  New podcasts are coming up shortly.

Podcasting while unemployed.  What I plan on doing to get a job.

I need career counselling.

(LONG) voicemail from Marti Abernathy from the Fat Tranny Circus Podcast.

I taped this walking home from work at 11 pm on Friday.  It
 was creepy: satanic-y woods, rat communes, etc.  I think about where my life is headed and also what it's like to be a temp.

Tales of woe on my way home from work. 

I had another shitty experience at the shit hospital.  I have to get another surgery.

My temp agency has been late with my paychecks.

My current temp assignment is ending and I have a simple request for my last day.

 

So I recently went to a gay job fair (seriously).

I'm also having problems with my insane new roommate.  Bitch crazy.

 

JayT comes on the show and we banter it up.  Things I won't talk about on my podcast, JayT's lucky patriotic underwear, politics, etc.

I'm posting a new show tomorrow.  In the meantime, enjoy this.

Remember how a while ago McKenzie visited me in Chicago and we ended up in a swimming pool with a bunch of semi-naked frat guys?  McKenzie finally sent me the pictures

You can see two more here and here.

Bad news on the job front.

Voicemail.

I talked with Richard from Yeast Radio about his decision to retire his (in)famous Madge Weinstein character.  We also talked about upcoming changes to Eat This Hot Show, Ragan Fox, politics, and the impact of queercasting.

Don't fuck with me.

And also: I went to a Halloween parade in Boystown with some friends yesterday.  It was a freaky night with a bathhouse, Maya Angelou, and gay superheroes.  But what about the children?

And speaking of children: I play a political attack ad.  Plus voicemail and an update on my movie.

I was recently a guest on these great podcasts.  Check them out:

Podcasting in bed. 

I went to a Halloween party.  The next morning I went to my Buddhist service hung over.

This podcast has really benefitted my writing.

I talk about how each of my podspirations has influenced my own podcast:

PNS Explosion
Yeast Radio
Wanda Wisdom

A short (emphasis on short) story I wrote for Halloween and Saturncast.

 

I did this podcast walking home from work.  Rats were underfoot and I got all shrieky like a wussy girl.

Anyways, I went to a bowling party last weekend where I got to go bowling with lots of fellow queercasters.  And speaking of striking out, I was also boo'ed off a karaoke stage.

A father, grandfather, and grandson visit a tar pit.

In the grande tradition of old school Okay So Radio, I freak out about my broken fingers, my future, and my health.  I also have some more entertaining anecdotes about handing out condoms in gay bars.

My friends Aaron and Chris help me tell some tales about shower contests, freaky hunchback homeless people, and dick burning. 

Featuring special guest Adam from This Boy Elroy and Real Men Wear Pink.  We talk about politics and pot and gossip about other gay podcasters and plenty of other great crap that I can't be bothered to remember right this second.

Part 2 of me driving through Cleveland with my best friend, McKenzie.

Driving around in Cleveland with my best friend.

I read my poem about various weird childhood encounters with animals.

Chit chatting about crap on my way to work.

Isn't it ironic how my own show notes are much worse than the show notes I write for Richard?

Some voicemail from Archer.

I get flustered talking about meeting up with my crush.

I entered my tongue in a talent competition at Estrojam.

I weigh in on the death of Madge Weinstein.

I'm meeting up with a crush tonight.  Exciting!  The day-after self-loathing should be even more exciting.


I'm officially starting my Weight Loss Odyssey.

Why I'm a bad Buddhist.

I'm going bowling with Madge (or maybe "Richard Bluestein"?) and Wanda.

I want JayT and Adam to go too. 

RMWP.

Coming soon: new Fatcasts.

All the leaves are falling, and the skys are gray.

Buddhism update. 

I address the whole "show queen" issue raised by Adam.

Myspace mystery.

Pill popping.

I read a short story I wrote a while ago.  It's about catfish.  For real.

Embarrassing incidents at my meditation class. 

I respond to some listener mail. 

Check me out on Archer Radio, y'all.

Updates on my crooked up fucked up fingers, hospital fantasies, and good news about my asshole roommate.

Fellow podcaster JayT joins me on today's show.  He tells me about his giant dick and the time he met Wanda Wisdom.  Good times!

P.S. That isn't a picture of JayT.  I couldn't find any pictures of him online and his Flickr pictures suck.  And there is no way in hell that I'm going to re-post that picture of me sitting next to him at a bar with my big gut all over the place.  So this hot guy is filling in for JayT.

I was in a music video AND a major Hollywood movie.  Jealous?

 

 

This is the music video I was in.  I'm wearing a bright green shirt in it.  Don't blink or you'll miss me. 

Still can't pick me out?  Then look above at the screenshot I posted in my podcast about the whole experience. 

Speaking of the podcast, I forgot to mention that it's embarrassing to watch me in that rock video because I totally dance like I'm at some gay club.  SO GAY.

 

I recount my tequila-soaked weekend, college-party-cruising, drunken-hijinx-filled weekend. 

I also reply to a listener comment and make my formal statement on the whole "bear/cub" issue. 

Also check me out on a recent Yeast Radio (although I don't recommend it).

 

 

On this episode of Okay So Radio I freak out and lose my shit.  Then I tell a story about the time I got mauled by a Blue Jay. 

Whatever. 

 

I had my first fickle listener leave in a huff.  Tragedy!

"Adrian" left me a mean comment and then claims to have left in a huff.  Thanks for the memories, Adrian.

I blather incoherently about the sad state of the media and our country's ignorance on political issues.

Don't shop at Urban Outfitters.

I talk about my first meditation class at my temple.  I of course managed to retard it up.  Then I blather incoherently about Buddhist philosophy.

Okay So Radio!

I tried to upload this yesterday but Libsyn sucks.

Anyways.

Summer's almost over and I get a little retrospective.

I read a funny (to me) iTunes review Anonymous wrote for this podcast.  I address the negativene, complainy tone I've been using on this podcast.  (More on this on the next show).

Thanks to Zillafag for helping me with my website.I tried to upload this yesterday but Libsyn sucks. 

Random link of awesomeness: PNSExplosion.  Like you didn't already know.

This is an essay I wrote a few years ago for my college's literary magazine.

I've decided to step up this podcast.  From now on I'm going to do three shows a week, not two.  Plus I'm going to try some new things like interviews, me reading things I've written, updates on my weightloss efforts, and some surprises along the way.

Feedback is not only welcome but encouraged on Okay So Radio, so let me know what you think!

This is the picture from the PNS Listener Party that DJDavidJ was talking about in his email to me.  Note Aaron (my friend who was on this episode) and Rob Lindley from The Daily Purge.

So recently on Madge Weinstein's show I got made fun of for being fat.  I do my Madge Weinstein impersonation during my dramatic re-enactment of the whole mess.  I was pretty upset after hearing that episode of Yeast.

But there were some upsides to the whole debacle.  I got lusty emails from chubby chasers Gay Trucker and Zillafag.  Plus I'm really motivated to get healthy again.

In other news: I got plugged on dreamy Adam's podcast, This Boy Elroy. 

Pornstar Buck Adams from Fruitventure Radio left me a very nice comment, too.  So did video blogger Cranky Person With Aids.  Please check out his amazing vlog.

And finally: I think it's time I step away from the internet.

Random link of awesomeness (you'll thank me for it later, trust me): Threadless T-Shirts.

Trying out doing a little intro.

My online pseudonym comes from a certain famous, cruel lesbian podmother of podcasting.

McKenzie almost died of meningitis last week and I was freaking the fuck out.

I might start biking.  Hopefully I won't get myself killed.

60 Minutes on The Science of Sexual Orientation.  Of course I manage to find a way to turn the report back to me.

Thank you Kiko of Visitronix Radio!

 

For this episode I decided to mix it up a little bit.  Instead of talking about myself I review some reality TV shows and discuss Hollywood.  Democracy Now this is not.

I give my opinion on the latest Rock Star Supernova and Big Brother All Stars. 

Then I discuss some surprising Hollywood developments.

I also give a bit of an update on my weightloss non-progress.

 

Proof of how fat I am. 

This show is a paradox of inspiritation and self-loathing.

I give an update on my Buddhist experience.  I talk about meditation and how I'm trying to integrate Buddhist principles into my day-to-day life.

If you think all that's boring, I also talk about how fat I am and how I gross myself out.  If you're a chubby chaser then this is the show for you.

Also: can anybody make me a website and logo, please?

And also: can someone PLEASE write me a goddamn review on iTunes?  Thanks.

I'm really excited about this one!

My friend Mikeypod came on the show.  We gossiped about other gay podcasters like Madge, dreamy Krebs Cast Adam, JayT., and a bunch of other people.  We also debated about who should be titled the Fattest Gay Podcaster (personally, I think I'm in the lead.  Sorry, Madge).

Thanks for coming on the show, Mikeypod!  Hopefully we can do it again sometime.

I'm back, bitches!

I complain about losing my last job.  I also finally come clean about how I've been paying the bills for the past five months.

Also: I'm out of my cast now and I have my right hand back.  Shazam.

And also: I talk about my Market Days experience, where I almost got beaten up by Muscle Marys and then passed out condoms to strangers. 

I also got to meet a fellow podcaster, JayT.  Check out his Real Men Wear Pink podcast, too.  I'm digging it.

Shout-out toDavid and that enigmatic crazypants, Adrian.

Today I went to Best Buy to get a new mic and the punkass kid locked the door right when I got there.  I was literally a minute too late.

I'm going to go back tomorrow and start putting out podcasts again.  Sorry for being a bad podcaster.  But lots of stuff has been going down lately and it's all going to be on the podcast.

In other news: I'm going to go back to being Madge's bitch starting tomorrow.   About two months ago I had to stop doing the show notes after those street thugs broke my fingers.  I'm happy to be writing that fat dyke's show notes again because it means a return to normalcy in my life.

My mic isn't working and I'm broke as a joke, so no podcasts this week.  I'll upload a few soundbites from the Gay Games, but I plan on putting together an entire Gay Games podcast when I get paid.

I had a cold during this one and I struggled a little bit. 

But, some good news: Madge Weinstein plugged me on her show!

In this show I do a brief run through of all the gay, flaming things I did as a young gay child.  Heeey!

Thank God this week finally ended!

I went speed dating recently.  Even though it wasn't quite what I was expecting, I ended up having a pretty decent time.  Until I got my results the next day. 

I also went to the PNS Explosion listener party.  I did a lot of drinking and socializing.  It was awesome.  Some guy was taping the PNS guys for a documentary he's making on queer podcasting.  He interviewed me, which was also awesome.

Up next on the podcast: the Gay Games ceremonies.  Finally.  Thank you, Mikeypod.

Hi Chris!

Gay Games and some personal revelations.

I volunteered for the Gay Games opening ceremony and I got to be on the field.  Even though I'm having fun with the Games, they somehow made me feel depressed about my life. 

Meanwhile, Madge called me "mopey" on her show, which helped me put everything into a little more perspective.

I might talk about my recent Speed Dating experience/debacle.

Housekeeping stuff:

I'm on iTunes now.

Thanks to Podshow and amb26 for my intro music.

Finally, I have a special request to my listeners.
 
Thanks for listening, bitches!

This is a good one.

My friends Aaron and Greg took a walk with me through Boystown.  We talk about the impending Gay Games.  Some nice, concerned Christians are even organizing a corresponding "Loving, Truthful" protest.  We also reminisce about college, share some Boystown bar stories, do some sex store shopping, and Aaron tells an embarrassing story about me.

Holla!

Sometimes I really hate the gays.

On Friday I got dissed by some LA douchebags from the LOGO network.  Then I got the runaround from the most famous drag queen in Chicago after I lugged her luggage around all night like a chump.  This isn't helping my  victim complex.

The whole incident was really petty and stupid, but it brought up a lot of issues I have with my own self worth and the problems I have with the gay community.

Oh well.  At least I had a Z List celebrity encounter that night.

What a week(s). 

I finally got to see the nasty Frankenstein shit the doctors did to my hand. 

I also got to march in the Pride parade and I got a little sentimental/emotional.  If my life were a TV show, the editors would play my parade experience in slow motion over piano music. 

And finally, I went to a Zen Buddhist temple to tap into my spirituality (and also do a little cruising). 

It's all about the multitasking on Okay So Radio.

New theme song- comments?

4th of July memories.  Drunken debauchery.  Mystery bruises.  Yelling at my crush about my lack of a vagina.

Yelling at my friends.

Homicide.

My undying loyalty to my listeners.

Hospital visit.  Prisoners.

Wolfgang Tillmans exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Remember how I said I would stop talking about my mugging and my broken fingers?  Me neither.

Surgery.  Crying.  Some nasty surprises.

Gay library book burning arrest.

Special shout-out to my listenturds.

All my podcasts up to this point make me seem like such a fucking Debbie Downer buzzkill.  I'm probably not going to talk about the mugging or my recovery for a while.  I promise.  Oy.

I got into a snit with the Retard Red Eye over their coverage of the Gay Games.

My take on Kevin Aviance's assault.


Gay people: please remember that America hates us.  Be safe.

Emotional breakdown.

Dealing with a psychobabbler at the hospital.

Going to the hospital to get treatment.  An upsetting experience.

Sunshine and lollipops.

My best friend McKenzie visited me on Memorial Day. 

Depression.

Naked frat boy hotness.

I just registered this and I'm re re and I don't know what I'm doing.  So I'm just kind of playing around.  The podcasts I'm uploading need to be edited, so I'll probably take them down again and fix them.

I don't know.  It's 1 am and I'm tired.  What do you want from me?

I got mugged and beat up about two weeks ago.  I recorded this the day it happened.
