ExplicitGoogle Romney | Mo Rocca makes his triumphant return to The Six Pack this week. Sure, last time turned out to be his big so-called "coming out" party, but this time is even heartier as he tells us all about "My Grandma's Ravioli." A gay guy with a close relationship with his grandmother? He's a keeper! Trending this week is quite a mixed bag of news. First, did you know that people are now making huge profits on Whitney Houston's death? Also, have you Googled 'Romney' lately? He has a bit of a 'Santorum' problem, if you know what we mean. And finally, we give Chris Christie's office a call to see about his veto of the gay marriage bill in New Jersey. Did he take our call personally? Only one way to find out!Werkin' It is back this week with Blue State Digital's Thomas Gensemer. Thomas is head of one of the top digital media agencies in the country and was a driving force behind Barack Obama's 2008 online campaign. It's Ben's Big Bonkers Birthday Bonanza!

ExplicitLive and Let Live | Comedienne Wendy Liebman and People Magazine staff editor Janet Mock join us this week for a very girly episode of The Six Pack. Wendy is the queen of one-liners and the old comedy 'switch-a-roo.' Next up Janet Mock dishes on the latest celeb gossip, makes Oscar predictions, and oh, shares what it was like to grow up a boy and then transition to a woman. No big deal. Trending this week: Roseanne Barr is running for president on the Green Party ticket. Will you smoke some green and vote for her? Also, a new study says children of lesbians grow up to be just as happy as children of straight people. And finally, what happens to your entire digital life after your real death? We've got answers.

(And he's in fine company with Andy Cohen and Thomas Roberts.) Marcellas tells us what to expect on the second season of Style Star (debuting February 13th on Style Network) and gives us a little fashion critique of our own. Most important though, he professes his love for another Style Star and what he might do to firmly take his place amongst Hollywood's A-List designers. | 2/1/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitLife is a Highway | Motor City here we come! This episode features our NYC to Detroit road trip adventure, courtesy of the fine folks over at GM Diversity. Cruising in our brand new Chevy Sonic, we clocked in over 600 miles on a 10-hour drive (with two stops at McDonald's). In Detroit we hit up the biggest car show around, the North American International Auto Show and got a taste for a revitalized city, thanks in part to GM reclaiming its spot as the world's #1 automaker. While at the Auto Show we got a tour from GM's Associate Director of Competitor Intelligence (aka Chief Spy), Adam Bernard. Adam broke down the who's who and the what's what at the show for us and also told us about how GM is reaching out to its gay employees and the greater LGBT community at large. We also spoke to deputy editor at Automobile Magazine Joe DeMatio about the hot cars for 2012 and beyond. Trending this week: Wearing headphones might kill you, people! Please, for the love of life, keep your head up while walking down the street. Also, America is becoming a nation of alcoholics. Are we drinking away all our problems? And finally, are you an up-and-coming weatherman in South Africa? You may want to listen carefully, otherwise an incorrect forecast could land you in the slammer. And remember: Life is a highway, we wanna entertain you all night long! Listen in now. | 1/25/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Explicit¡Es Justin Bieber! | Hola, amigos y amigas! We spent all week in the the paradise known as Isla Mujeres, a tiny island off of Cancun. The fine folks at Palace Resorts served up some amazing all-inclusive food, booze, sun, and fun in the land of the ancient Mayans. Being on a working vacation didn't stop us from finding out what was trending in the news: We're happy to report that Cancun is about to become only the second place in Mexico where gay marriage will be legal. So if our adventure isn't enough to get you down here, maybe finding the man (or woman) of your dreams will do it. With the mystery of 2012 firmly in our minds we thought it would be a great opportunity to talk to Ranae Holland, the resident skeptic over at Animal Planet's new show, "Finding Bigfoot." Does Bigfoot exist? We'll find out...kinda. And finally we chat it up with Octavio Favela, the head of LGBT outreach for Palace Resorts. The company is looking to become a premier place for gays to stay, and Flavio tells us how they're going to it. Oh, and we got henna tattoos. That's right, we're bad-ass! Sit back, relax and enjoy the island adventure we call The Six Pack. | 1/18/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPikachu Tattoo | Ed Begley Jr. helps us kick off 2012 in total green style. He was green way before it was cool and now has his own reality show because of it…not to mention a boatload of TV shows and movies under his belt. In Trending this week, we debate Gawker's "pop culture resolutions" as well as offer our take on SOPA. Don't know what SOPA is? No, it's not a new type of soap! Trust us, it's important and you need to know about it. We also bring back an oldie but a goodie in 'Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Songs.' With the holidays having come and gone we found some missed connections that really capture the holiday spirit. Is your unrequited love in here? Since it's a new year, we're out with the old and in with the new! We've got a new sound and a new announcement. New year, new you, new Six Pack. Go! | 1/4/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

From overseeing day-to-day Housewives programming to his new 5 day-a-week gig on "Watch What Happens Live," the man has a lot on his plate right now.

First, we chat it up with Brad about his new Bravo show, 'It's a Brad, Brad World' and dig a little deeper into the fallout between him and Rachel Zoe. Is Brad ready for his own series, and can we get him in a pair of Bonobos? You'll find out! Next up, it's Levi Crocker from Logo's 'A-List.' This is one Texas cowboy not afraid of the bright lights and big city. He holds nothing back when talking about his distaste for Ann Coulter and reveals why he holds no love for the new Flaming Saddles bar in NYC. Did they kick him out for being a real cowboy? Also in this episode: Did you know that if you have an STD people might be able to sniff it out of you? A new study confirms it. And if you're stalking anyone these days there is a new clinic just for you. The holiday season is upon us, so catch up on your shopping and catch up on your Six Pack!

ExplicitMoving Merchandise | High Pitch Mike of SiriusXM's Howard Stern show (you've heard of it, right?) joins us for an all-in-the family episode of The Six Pack. Mike talks about what it was like to come out on-air to Howard, millions of listeners, and the whole cast and crew. Can Mike help us get on the other side of that door at SiriusXM? The jury is still out! We bring back an oldie, but a goodie, with Straight List, Gay Twist… the "bro edition." Are first dates the same for gay dudes and straight dudes? (Probably not, or we'd have to call it Straight List, No Twist.) Our music track this week comes from Penguin Prison. Be sure to check out the video for "Don't F*ck With My Money" - it was taped at Occupy Wall Street! Speaking of music, in an effort to class up the operation, we went to the legitimate theater last week and saw the musical Lysistrata Jones. It was a basketball-filled, pop-n-lock dancing spectacular. The turkey has been eaten, the stuffing has been stuffed. Now unbuckle those pants and give thanks for The Six Pack. | 11/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBienvenidos a Miami | The Six Packin' Across America tour reached South Beach for this suntastic, abtastic episode. We spent our days at the 12th street beach and our nights taking in all that South Beach has to offer. When not mingling with the locals, we sat down with Lords South Beach owner Brian Gorman to talk southern hospitality and what it means to own an "appropriately oriented" hotel. We also chat with the most powerful gay couple in Miami, Steve Adkins and Cindy Brown, who are the head honchos over at the Miami-Dade Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center. (Yes, he's gay and she's a lesbian, but please follow us on this one!) They tell us all about how Miami became a hub of gay life in Florida and how the community has become to integrated into the city. And Cindy tips us off on a major money-making app (involving the words "grind" and "her.") The main event of the trip was Sleepless Night, Miami's 25-hour cultural festival, marking the end of daylight savings time with music, performance, art...and lots of espresso. So yes, The Six Pack hit South beach, the city of six packs, and lived to tell about it. | 11/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitShort: Women are from Venus, Gays are from Uranus | We love the segment 'Straight List Gay Twist,' in which we discuss a women's magazine survey and analyze it from the gay perspective. This time we delve even deeper and turn an article that was written for men and see how it applies to gays. Hint: We're not all from Uranus. Thankfully. | 11/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitBaby Shaker | Recording artist Justin Utley and SiriusXM radio host Derek Hartley join us in studio for a double dose of audio star power. Justin describes growing up as a gay Mormon and how he survived reparative therapy before moving to NYC. Derek tells us all about his new book and the keys to success as a radio duo. (Important info for some of us!) Trending this week is a mix of money, Hollywood, and tech: Did you know Youtube is actually making people make money? We'll give you the tips to cash in. Can stars go back in the closet after coming out publicly? Apparently so. And which apps has Apple banned from the app store? Lots to discuss. We're off to Miami this week to escape the chilly northeast. If you're in the Miami area join us at the Lords Hotel on Friday November 4th for drinks and South Beach good times. | 11/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPuerto Rican Poolboy | MTV Real World's bisexual superstar Frank Sweeney joins us this week for some real world talk. From the pressures of being on a reality show to being openly bi to perhaps partying a bit too much, Frank shares it all. Has he hooked up with Sam the lesbian? You'll find out. Trending this week: Inmates in a Connecticut prison think they deserve porn, but is porn a basic human right? There's a new book about President Obama that says he has daddy issues, but who doesn't? And stock up on peanut butter now, because the prices are about to skyrocket! It's another addition of Crime Time and this one is a girl-centric blotter. Are lesbians getting more attention these days or just committing more crime? We investigate. Don't forget the Six Pack is now live on SiriusXM, every Saturday 1-3 pm EST, channel 108 on your dial. | 10/19/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitShort: Gawker's Brian Moylan | This week we turn to Gawker's Bryan Moylan to discuss what's hot in the news and take a look at the underbelly of mainstream media. From Anna Farris' boyfriend giving away her cat on Craigslist to Ann Coulter guest-starring on the A-List, we've got quite an eclectic mix for you. Oh, and is that not enough?

ExplicitFrench Lessons | Steve-O is back for another round of uncensored shenanigans. Since we last spoke he did the Roast of Charlie Sheen and managed to get his nose broken by Mike Tyson! Steve-O is quite proud of the "honorary gay" title we gave him, and you'll be quite impressed with his knowledge of otters and bears. The news is a mixed bag that includes everything from pig thievery (oh my!) to the fall TV season (oy vey!) to a straight version of Grindr (oh lord!). We bring back another 'Werkin' It' with Jose Iniguez from MTV Act. What's it like working for the do-gooder side of the hippest, hottest network around? And does 'It Get Better' when you're actually out at work? Yes, yes it does. Also on this episode we finally reveal the announcement we've been teasing for awhile. Yes, it's true, we're now live on SiriusXM every Saturday, from 1-3 pm EST on OutQ channel 108. Adjust your satellite and tune in for some live fun.

ExplicitShort: He Said, He Said | Mickey Rapkin of Details Magazine joins us for this Six Pack Short. (We're working on coverboy Armie Hammer, don't you worry.) With gay marriage spreading across the US and the march to equality in full swing, there are new issues popping up for gay couples. Like gay divorce. What if you get married in a state where it is legal and then move to a state where it isn't? Can you get divorced if your marriage was never recognized in the first place? Why are gay divorces often more heated than straight ones? And how should a sugar daddy protect himself from a money-grubbing boytoy? These questions and more answered here! (As to whether you want to get married in the first place, well, we'll leave that up to you.) | 9/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitRainbow Trout | Henry Winkler (aka the Fonz) joins us this week for a cerebral, warm & fuzzy interview. From Happy Days to Adam Sandler movies to his new found love of Twitter, Henry shares it all with a sprinkling of love. The news has us covering the news itself, as the New York Times seems to want to know a little more about Anderson Cooper's love life. And have you been following #OccupyWallStreet? Some anarchists, hipsters, and communists have been gathering in downtown NYC to change the world. Will it work? If not, just hunker down in a smut bunker…yes, we'll explain. We're Werkin' It with Jeff Kagan, the man behind the NYC gay sports leagues. We discuss changing stereotypes and whether sports and hanky-panky can co-exist. Fall has just begun.

ExplicitShort: Chris Salvatore | Chris Salvatore calls in as he prepares to head east from LA to the Big Apple. Last time we spoke to him, The Six Pack wasn't even The Six Pack yet, and he was Skyping while in bed with another man. Needless to say, a lot has changed since then! He'll be in town to perform at #GUMBOPOP this Friday at Canal Room in Tribeca (you're coming, right?). But it's not just about music with this guy, he is also the star of the Eating Out series. Oh, and he even plays a keytar. Renaissance man, indeed! | 9/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitSpace Vacation | CNN's Don Lemon sat down with us this week to discuss politics, coming out, and Marcus Bachmann. Yes, Marcus did elbow Don, but don't worry, Candy Crowley has his back. Don was in NYC guest hosting on HLN, so we interviewed him in Joy Behar's office. So what, who cares? We do, that's who! The news gives us a brand new study confirming what many of you guys have been telling us: bisexuality does indeed exist. (Not that we doubted you!) Also, is college admission about to get easier for gay people? And how much would you pay to vacation in outer space? If you've got around $1.2 million to drop you can head up to the stars sooner than you think. 'Straight List, Gay Twist' is back with an all-new twist. This time we took a list for straight men and debated whether it's applicable to their homosexual counterparts. Maybe we aren't so different from these guys after all. The summer is over, so even though you have to put your white pants back in the closet, the season of Six Pack is just arriving! | 9/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPleasant Unconsciousness | Michael Ian Black, fresh off a summer road trip with Meghan McCain, joins us this week to snark up the show. Between his comedy specials, TV shows and endless appearances on VH1, what else does he want to accomplish? And perhaps more importantly, will there be a 'Wet Hot American Summer' sequel? Cause we wouldn't mind a another scene with Mr. Bradley Cooper. Six Pack News has a little something for everyone. First, a new study says that nice guys do in fact finish last. Remember that next time someone at the office is mean to you. And speaking of mean, Rick Perry's anti-gay rhetoric may be finally catching up with him; there's an ad in a Texas newspaper looking for people that have slept with him. (Sadly, we have not.) We also bring back 'Werkin It' with an out-and-proud lesbian, Rebecca Szymczak, who is the VP of Design for Playboy. (Yes, you read that correctly.) She talks about being a girl-into-girls at such a guy-centric company, how Playboy is getting a little gayer, and what it was like growing up with a mom who was a Playboy bunny. (You also read that correctly!) Summer is almost over, but The Six Pack is just heatin' up. Put on your white pants and click play before Labor Day. | 8/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitI'm not a Superman | Lt. Dan Choi, poster-child for 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' calls in this week. He's fought the right wing, he's stood up to 'mainstream gay,' and he's been to Iraq, and now Choi takes on his toughest feat yet: the Six Pack interview. We delved into everything from his experiences officiating weddings to his exploits on Grindr to his nervous breakdown last year. Choi holds nothing back! Six Pack News poses quite a few questions this week. Is Sao Paulo really going to have a Heterosexual Pride day? Is AT&T slowly going to choke its unlimited data plan users? And has 'It Gets Better' officially jumped the shark? We've got answers galore! Andy Dunn, founder and CEO of Bonobos, joins us live in-studio to tell us just how buttastic Bonobos pants really are. He's part businessman, part fashionista, part self-help guru, and totally down with the gays. Oh, and he dressed us up in some hotttt suits for our GLAAD Manhattan event. Good man, good man.

ExplicitLesbiGod | The Real L Word's Whitney Mixter, the lesbian-of-all-lesbians, is back for round 2 with The Six Pack. She is the breakout star from the series and one of our fave guests, so we thought it was time to find out what's new with this chick. From her celesbian exploits to Brooklyn BBQs to "Lesbian Attack" parties, she spreads around lots girly-goodness. Six Pack News casts a wide net of wedded bliss this week. Mayor Mike Bloomberg will officiate a gay wedding on the first day they are legal in NY; lesbians are getting married at higher rates than gay men; and straights are getting divorces at higher rates in states that have gay marriage. Gays, lesbians, straights…oh my! Crime Time is back, and we've got bat-wielding lesbians, a missing cat, and a missing p***s. (You can guess which one we found the most disturbing.)

ExplicitTil Death Do Us Part | NYC's own Joy Behar and former Mayor Ed Koch join us on this very proud episode of The Six Pack. We talked to Joy live in the flesh (calm down) right before we hopped on board a fundraiser for Friends of Animal Rescue. She loves animals and she loves gays, but is there room for straight marriage in her life? Mayor Ed Koch also called in to the show, offering his opinions on the gay marriage bill and revealing his latest gig - as a movie reviewer. Six Pack News takes us from popcorn brain to pride doodles to Chris Crocker porn. You'll have to tune in to find out.

If you're a straight girl with a possibly gay boyfriend, oh do we have some words of wisdom for you! Six Pack News brings you our thoughts on Tracy Morgan (hint: we're not thrilled with him).

You can't say "gay" in Tennessee anymore, but you can say "Takei!" BearBook gets sued by Facebook and has been forced to change its name. And which show has more fruit factor - The Voice or American Idol? We discuss. Since it's our big second anniversary show, we bring back a golden oldie, 'Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Songs.' It's an international mix celebrating our listeners from all over the world. Did you recently experience some unrequited love? You might just be in this one. Two years down and we're just getting started. You know what to do. | 5/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitKeeping Them Honest | Ben Cohen, our favorite British rugby player for many reasons, joins us this week from across the pond. (Sorry guys, he's straight, but his wife is cool with you objectifying him.) He tells us about the launch of his Acceptance Tour to stand up to bullying, and also reveals quite a bit about his chest hair! This week in the news, we review a possible CIA/Bin Laden sex tape, as well as a Japanese Internet kissing box. Yup, the future is now. David Walters, the Entertainment Editor from Details is in studio to talk about the magazine's 'Yes List.' Think we can pull Details out of the closet a bit? Oh, we think so. We're one episode away from our 2nd Anniversary show with very special guest, MSNBC's Thomas Roberts, and a few surprises for you guys. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Let your Acceptance Tour of The Six Pack begin now. | 5/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitYes to Everything | James Van Der Beek calls in and gives us the insider scoop on Logo's New Now Next Awards. Is he trying to dethrone Neil Patrick Harris as the king of hosting gigs? And what's life been like since Dawson's Creek? But most important, what was up with that Ke$ha video he did (along with the evil unicorns)? We delve into all of these questions and more. It's a double interview bonanza this week, as we also chat it up with Marc Maron of the WTF Podcast. He's the go-to guy for insight into the comic mind, but this time we crack open his mind and discuss how he's helped put the podcasting medium on the map. The headlines have some sad news, as our pals over at Queerty have decided to close shop. As if that weren't enough of a bummer, we found out that the Olive Garden cooking school is a fraud. Unlimited salad not withstanding, this is quite a shocker. Oh, and Bethenny Frankel has sold Skinny Girl for a cool 120. Million. We're still waiting for our cut of the check. Spring has sprung, so bust out your Skinny Girl, throw on your headphones, and find out what really is New Now Next: The Six Pack. | 4/26/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitTake Yo Momma Out | Lisa Lampenelli, comedy's 'Lovable Queen of Mean,' calls in while en route to a road gig. (Oh, the life of a comedian.) She holds nothing back as she veers from the Comedy Central Roasts to her affection for black men to her feelings about Andy Dick. And yes, there are a couple f-bombs in there. We think you can handle it. The headlines, powered by Queerty, are a mixed bag: everything from gay animals to STD-carrying mosquitoes to a hip-hop radio transvestite prostitute scandal. There are no winners here, folks. With less than a month to go before our big Turks and Caicos trip (have you heard we are going?!), we bring back our master trainer from Equinox, Antoni. He updates us not only on our fitness routine, but has plenty of tips as we finally shift into the spring and summer. Apparently getting fit has something to do with diet, who knew? | 4/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitSex Changes and Track Lighting | Andy Dick, star of TV, movies and mug shots joins us to talk shop this week. He says he's cleaning up his act, and after hearing about his new habit, we kinda believe him. Hint: It involves lots of cayenne pepper. In the headlines we'll tell you about a sex change operation that became a criminal offense, and we'll also introduce you to Fred Karger, the first openly gay candidate for a major party to run for President. And then there's the juicy story about a former porn star turned MTV Real World cast-member. MTV might be trying to whitewash his porn past, but nothing gets by us. Also this episode we discuss our "favorite things" (Oprah style) and introduce you to musical wunderkind Sky Ferreira, who is playing SUPERFRAICHE, presented by Ben's GUMBO party and ArjanWrites.com. Only 5 weeks until we're off to Turks and Caicos. Get 10% of your vacation if you book now. Just don't forget to tell them Ben and Dave sent ya! | 3/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitOld School Soda Makers | Melissa Rauch from 'Big Bang Theory' joins us this week and waxes poetic about her early stand-up days with Dave, life as a talking-head on VH1's 'Best Week Ever,' and her star role on one of the top sitcoms on TV. The headlines, powered by Queerty.com, bring up some very important questions this week: Are hookers ditching Craigslist for Facebook? And is Oprah's new OWN network actually getting worse ratings than the channel it replaced? (We hope O isn't taking this out on poor Stedman; he's been through enough.) Remember the Corbin Fisher "Thieving little sh*t" comment from last episode? Well, we promised to dig deeper into this BitTorrent story, so we tracked down Brian Dunlap, the CEO of Corbin's parent company, to help us dissect the situation. Don't fear, you may not have to cancel that subscription after all. All that, plus our biggest Group Action ever - which has nothing to do with the Corbin Fisher segment. We just got a lot of emails! | 3/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitNature vs. Nurture | Former MTV VJ Dave Holmes calls in this week and tells us how the music channel has changed over the years, what it was like to be out back in the 90s (holy cow!), and how he decided to take control of his career. The headlines, powered by Queerty.com, are all sunshine with a lot of good news for the gays this week, even as told to us by Fox News! There's some bad news for closeted kids who may have downloaded Corbin Fisher porn, however. Whose side are you on and do you think we should #BoycottCorbin? You guys having been enjoying our 'gaynalysis' of trends lately, so this week we decide to tackle the nature vs. nurture debate. Are gays really "born this way," as a certain tumblr blog and Lady Gaga believe? We not only give you some answers but get a real life gay flight-attendant-in-training on the phone. We didn't even have to push the 'call' button twice. Now put your tray table in the upright position and get ready for the show! | 2/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

From Anderson Cooper to Shephard Smith, the East Village to Murray Hill, and Calvin Klein to his boy-toy, Michael holds nothing back. (Not that he ever does.) This week's headlines were begging for some Six Pack discussion, including the major drug bust on an Atlantis Cruise and Billy Ray Cyrus' blowout with Disney. Warning: Don't be like Myley and smoke salvia while listening. And how could we call ourselves gay without dissecting the new Gaga song? Is this really the new gay anthem or just some recycled Madonna pop from the 80s? It's a February ranty and ravy Six Pack. And if our audio warmth isn't enough to get you through the rest of the winter, join us this May in Turks and Caicos. We've got some new details in this episode. | 2/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

She's got a whole lot on her mind, everything from her HRC award to the decline of cable news to her gay ex-husband. Try to keep up! One thing Fran probably won't be talking about is our highly illicit encounter with Perez Hilton in Atlantic City a few weeks ago. (Let's just say that Ben has learned a good lesson about Velcro.)

We got served some frog's legs (they do in fact taste like chicken), as well as a big helping of gay Texas history. Bettie Naylor, the "Rosa Parks of gay rights" in Texas, joined us for an afternoon of storytelling. Wait 'til you hear how she left 30 years of marriage to become the first gay lobbyist in Texas. Truly an amazing woman. Top to Bottom, powered by Queerty.com, has a load of topics as big as Texas itself, including an internal debate over Logo's A-List show.

Top to Bottom, powered by Queerty, has two new studies about gay peeps that'll get your head spinning and a story about a no-good proctologist that'll get your butt itching! Jeff Kors from EQCA tells us more about the organization's efforts, which include passing more pro-gay legislation through the California legislature than any other year in history. And because we can never truly leave the east coast behind, we managed to interview Planet Green's Beekman Boys, who went from NYC life to a full-time farm existence.

Top to Bottom, powered by Queerty, brings us some Republican-chick madness: Elisabeth Hasselbeck reveals she's actually pro-gay, and Ann Coulter says she'll speak at GOProud's Homocon, whether the "fake Christians" like it or not. Could Maggie Gallagher be the next conservative hussy to hop on the pro-homo bandwagon? Hmm.

Does this make her autobiography a lie? Teen Vogue says the "it" thing for teenage girls these days is to have a gay best friend, or "GBF" for short. Are gays being relegated to the role of just a Sassy Gay Friend? (Yeah, let's talk about that YouTube video too!)

ExplicitA Very Ticklish Christmas | The multi-talented Mason Wyler Skypes into the show with plenty of "ho ho ho" spirit. You may have seen Mason displaying his jingle balls on our new partner site, Guys with iPhones, but we're betting he's nowhere to be found on Guys I Blocked on Grindr (our other new partner!). We interrogate Mason about everything from "Spokes 3" to sex addiction to being a self-professed attention w***e. Mason also reveals a disturbing experience involving tickle torture, and he stirs up new controversy with some fine words for Zane from Chaos Men (also known as ZTT). Is ZTT really a tweaked out version of "Maria Full of Grace," or is Mason just blowing smoke? Either way, he cracks us up. Top to Bottom brings us news about Bruce Springsteen, Houston's lesbian mayor, incestuous gay twins Miloh and Elijah Peters, and the top trending Twitter topics of the year. We've got a new "Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Music," and this one is gonna do George Michael proud.

Customer Reviews
My best friends (in my head - thanks Wendy Williams
I was beyond excited to discover that not only had Ben & Dave gotten a new show but that it was bigger, better, gayer, funnier, and amazing-er (I know its not a word people). If you want to laugh your a*s off subscribe & enjoy. {P.S. - I‘m in love with Dave…Carlos, watch you back}
The Batman and Robin of podcasts.
Ben and Dave are the best at what they do, they keep you in stiches as well as up to date on current events from a gay point of view. Gay or straight once you give them a listen you are hooked, then you start counting the days to the next podcast. People with a open mind from all walks of life will find something they can relate to or at least will find another way of looking at the world through lavender colored glasses. Keep up the good work guys, you are truly the Batman and Robin of podcasts a.k.a the best duo of podcasting.
Oo-wee
To say I was overjoyed when these boys came back on the air is an understatement. They are such a refreshing change from all those gay podcasts out there that just want to talk about stereotypic gay stuff (not that there'e anything wrong with that). But, I think we need two regular gay guys to just tell it like it is, while making fun of each other in the process. Here's hoping their media empire continues and they get their own tv and/or radio show. Love these guys!!!
