Move over ladies of the view, the boys of Chicago's only@brunch are moving in
Chicago, IL -
Playing on the very gay tradition of friends gathering to chat over brunch, the interactive talk show only@brunch has just put out their premier episode online.
Describing itself as "Five gay guys talking sex, politics, culture, dating, relationships, health, and everything else fabulous," the show features a wide variety of topics with a heavy dose of snark and sass.
The brainchild of Creator and Executive Producer Jared Hall, along with Executive Producers Brian Felder and Michael Mowers, the show features a cast of diverse backgrounds and ages talking about everything you would expect to hear over brunch with a group of friends.
The show is co-hosted by Felder and Hall along with Bradley Thomas, Craig Rathwell, Jesse Budlong, and Terrence Chappell.
only@brunch celebrated its premier party at Sidetracks on Wed., Aug. 17, where they introduced the community to their hosts and staff. Over a hundred people turned out to chat while sipping brunch-themed mimosas and to catch a teaser of the premier episode, which is now online.
Having watched the show and attended the event I was pleasantly surprised by the easy chemistry between the hosts and the amount of laughs the episode got from the room. Also impressive was the interactive aspect, where the hosts asked attendees what they wanted to see discussed on future episodes, a feature also seen on the show's website. Suggestions ranged from the usual answers of sex and dating to more in-depth topics like being out at the workplace and gay hispanic issues.
All-in-all, this community based gab fest has tons of potential and is worth checking out! Be sure to visit their website at www.onlyatbrunch.com. You can also follow the show on Facebook and Twitter.
The pilot of only@brunch is available on the show's YouTube Channel. New episodes will be available online every Wednesday.
