Cocktails And Cream Puffs : Gay / Lgbt Comedy Show

In this final regular episode of Season 4 the boys start out by discussing the Senate’s proposed “Stop Online Piracy Act” (SOPA).  While the title of this bill sounds like something we all could get behind some of the details could be destructive to the freedoms on the internet for everyone, including, bloggers, face bookers, and podcasters.  Get informed and let your congressional representatives know where you stand.  Also this week we find out that Chaz Bono is saving up to buy a penis, Joey is fitted for pointe shoes and discovers foot panties, Marc and Matt get filthy porn at an Epiphany party, the cast has been tentatively announced for what is sure to be a long movie version of Les Miserables, and Beyoncé has given birth to Blue Ivy…She may want to get that checked out!

Still recovering from the New Year festivities, Joey and Marc review the best of gay lists as provided by Advocate and Out magazines.  Joey discusses his platform as he announces he is running for office and Marc is nearly eliminated by a public service billboard.  Additionally, the Queen of Soul Aretha is engaged, Katy Perry is officially getting divorced, and Ricky Martin is to wed in New York too.

This week Creamie Land was filled with both joy and sorrow.  Marc shared with us his sadness and memories with the recent passing of his Grandmother.  She was a great woman whose legacy will live on through her family and the people’s lives she touched.  On the flip side, Wendy had visitors from down under.  After nearly a decade she was reunited with her brother Peter and his wife Jill.  Truly it was a weekend to remember with wine, stories of the farm, and a replenished supply of clip on koalas.  Everyone, please give your family an extra hug this holiday season.  You won’t regret it! In Loving Memory of Mary L. Marconi December 22, 1917 - December 5, 2011

Ten years ago, Buffalo United Artists presented a staged reading of Confessions, an original play by then 21-year-old Matthew Crehan Higgins about the no holds barred experiences of young gay men on the verge of adulthood. The popular play spawned a holiday themed sequel, and a revised version became the most honored offering at the 2004 National Gay & Lesbian Theatre Festival, taking honors as Best Ensemble Cast, Best Director, Best New Play, and Best of the Festival.On this anniversary, Buffalo United Artists presented a one night reading featuring original cast members Brant Adamczyk, Paul Kenjarski, and Matthew Crehan Higgins, joined by Gary Andrews and Matthew Mooney in a benefit for The Trevor Project - the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youth.

Team Cream Puff is about to face off on Family Feud in Rochester this upcoming weekend and thanks to an iPhone app they are able to attempt to brush up their skills and later have a family feud of their own.  By the way, unless the answer is deaf or hearing impaired related, Matt will not be in the fast money round.  This week we also discuss Wendy’s great move, the Rat Pack, theatre etiquette, and how a post on Facebook can open a world of dialogue and of course a little rant about the Podcast Awards.  To everyone who is continuing to vote for us, THANK YOU.  Voting ends Wednesday.  Let’s finish strong. www.podcastawards.com For all your Creamie needs and information, visit www.cocktailsandcreampuffs.com
