A Taste of Candi Stratton

Candi Stratton on the Feast of Fools podcastGet ready for some fierceness as we have the delicious Candi Stratton on today's show!

Chicago's ownCandi Stratton practically went overnight from being a well known drag queen to an airline flight attendant after her sex change surgery. After a long career in air, she fell in love and later married an Australian man and moved to the land down under.

From Australia, it's just a short hop to Bangkok, Thailand where Candi got a regular gig working at the Bed Supper Club. Funny thing about the Bed Supper Club is that people would actually sit on beds to watch her dazzling Cher impersonations. While living in the Thai capital, she worked six days a week as a liaison for Westerners seeking sex changes at a Thai hospital.

Candi, along with a partner, runs a wonderful website specializing in glittery garments called Sequin Queen. Even if lavish, beaded costumes isn't your thing, it's still fun to browse around and look at all these elaborate gowns made in cruelty-free Thai garment shops.

Got all that? Hold on tight as Candi shares with us the life lessons we all can learn from women like her- facing your fears, embracing yourself and living your best life.

Look again, it's Candi Stratton as Cher Candi Stratton wearing feathers, looking fabulous! Candi Stratton wearing a garish pink outfit

Didn't Kennidi and Trannytalk 101 just do the same interview?
I'm sure other interviews with Candi are fabulous, but, each interview is unique because of the chemistry between people conducting the interview and the subject.

I feel we had great chemistry and we really enjoyed having Candi on the show. She's charming, giving and sexy. I can't wait to have her on again.

Gigi with Ripped Neck Fausto and Marc dress up as Asian vampires

Halloween is the perfect holiday for slobs. All those unraked leaves, cobwebs and dead animals rotting in your front yard almost look normal.

Even though you dress like a bum everyone now everybody thinks you're just trying out your costume a couple of days early.

On Halloween, strange is the new black.

What are you dressing up for Halloween? We're going as panda's with fangs! On today's Feast of Fools, Gigi Deluxe, our favorite devilish vixen, artist and mom shares with us her secrets on dressing up and having a fabulous Halloween.

Gigi Deluxe on the Feast of Fools podcastGigi's BabiesGigi looks like she's about to kick Elivra or Tura Santana's butt in her new black and velvety smooth wig. For our local mistress of the dark, every day is Halloween. Gigi is a real-life Morticia Adams. She even dresses up her own kids in such great costumes the other kids run away in terror.

You can pretty much break down every Halloween costume into either the zombie, vampire and drag queen categories.

What to be, what to be? Why not pick all three?

Listen to today's show as we give you some great ideas on how to make your zombie, vampire or drag queen costume fabulous, and save a little money too.

Do clothes make the zombie? Are feather boas kryptonite for drag queens?

And should vampires avoid using fake blood? After all, you want to be flashy AND trashy, not scummy and slummy.

Join Gigi on Saturday November first for her fabulous Halloween Fetish Ball at the Kinetic Playgroud in the Uptown neighborhood of Chicago. Come and play wiht all the fetish

She's also hosting Ache, a night of art, fashion and music at 903 W 19th Street, in Chicago on November 14th from 6pm-midnight. Visit Gigi Deluxe on myspace for more details.

What are you wearing for Halloween?What are you wearing for Halloween? We're going as panda bears.

On today's show Tracy Tyler, everybody's favorite Trannie on the internet, shares her thoughts on dressing up for Halloween and our fabulous What Not to Wear Listener party that took place last Friday.

In case you missed the event, here are some video clips of the fabulous night. Over 100 friends and fans showed up to celebrate at the fabulous Hydrate nightclub in Chicago.

Halloween lands on a Friday this year, so if you plan on rocking out that weekend, please go vote early beforehand. We don't want your week long hangover to make you skip voting in this important election. To find out how to vote early in your area, click here.

Is gay marriage a poorly worded civil rights issue? Tracy certainly thinks so, but we're not so sure.

Bombs are in the air as Guy Ritche and Madonna officially launch their Cold War, accusing each other of manipulation, abuse and espionage. But isn't it like rich celebrities to think world cares as much about their pain and suffering as they do? It's a divorce, not a war.

Sarah Palin gets flummoxed by a 3rd grader who asked her what the job of a Vice President entails. Yeah, Palin got it wrong.

Australian woman diagnosed with rare disease and we wonder if she could be a mermaid? Maybe not, but she sure smells like it.

Don't be lazy in Nigeria, you could be sent to prison!

Welcome to Deven Green
CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE SHOW | SUBSCRIBE ON iTUNES

Comedian and YouTube sensation Deven Green on the Feast of Fools podcastOn today's show we've got the very funny Deven Green, YouTube Comedy sensation, known for her videos as "Brenda Dickson - Welcome to my Home" and Betty Bowers, America's Best Christian.

Hailing from the great white north, Deven Green was a runway model, a competitive ice skater and the first female voice for the Canadian movie phone.

Deven Green and her hot hubby Joel BryantHer husband, Joel Bryant, sent Deven the camp sensation, Brenda Dickson's condescending 1980s "Welcome to My Home" video which has become a Youtube sensation. Devin recognized the parody gold waiting to be mined in the video and her lampoon soon became very popular on Youtube.

The spoof gained her a lot of attention and she's received a copyright infringement notice from Brenda's lawyers.

Deven also works another wonderful character, Betty Bowers, America's Best Christian. Betty lays it out on why she truly is deserving of God's gifts and why you are not.



Listen as we talk with Deven about what's it like being an outspoken, fierce new media diva in Hollywood, her hot husband actor Joel Bryant and doing comedy shows in men's prisons.

Plus Devin Shares her insights on becoming a comedy sensation on Youtube!

Did the Kaballah religion destroy Madonna and Guy Ritchie's marriage or was it Madonna's obsession with perfection? Sources close to Ritchie say that sex with Maddonna was "cuddling up with gristle" because she worked out four hours everyday.

New website for Christian nymphomaniacs who just can't get enough of married, monogamous sex. i have a feeling this website is going to get out of control in no time at all. Eventually it will become "Swinging for Jesus."

The deadliest reality tv show yet- Live Like You're Dying, is produced by Survivor Jeff Probst and it takes the terminally ill on the last adventure of their life.
