His Target: YOU.   Red Bastard is not clown.  He is not here to please you.  He has come to make you surrender. Join me and Eric Davis backstage as we talk about shock, connection, discomfort and scaring an audience out of the theatre. And it's gonna be funny.

Red Bastard: Seductive Comedy Monster

I recently led a workshop in "applied improvisation" with this incredible woman. We co-facilitated a group using the tools of improv to knock people out of their boxes and gag their inner critics. Belina is embarking on a travel adventure to lead great thinkers across the planet (and seriously - she's going EVERY where!) and write a book about how to save the world with improv. She and I are creating a new project called SustainableStandup which we will update you on in the upcoming year. Belina can be found at Maffick.com and you can donate to her campaign for the book and trip at: http://www.startsomegood.com/uitstw

USING IMPROV TO SAVE THE WORLD - With Belina Raffy

Kelfi & Fikel, a female sketch and musical satire duo from Australia join me to talk about their experience at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and about using the c-word, being feminists, and just general silliness. Their website is www.kelfiandfikel.com.

THE C-WORD: KELFI & FIKEL in EDINBURGH

With titles like "There's No Female Word For BLow Job" and "My Personal Massager" you might wonder why we've been called "not advertiser-friendly"... 

BENCH WARMERS: My new feminist comedy web series

Okay get your head out of the gutter - not that kind of "from behind." Join me and feminist Fordham Law professor CLARE HUNTINGTON as we talk about implicit bias. If you don't know what that really means, you will and you'll be asked back to spiffy intellectual Brooklyn cocktail parties if you throw the term around more. Join us as we talk about what baggage women and minorities "start the race" with and how we can unfuck things up.

When I created UnFuckitup.com and our UnFucker of the Month Award, I had no idea how many people would join us in our campaign to UnFuck things up and to share what they were doing in the world. I think we're going to have to move to UnFucker of the Day Award soon! But things really took off when activist and writer, KATIE KLABUSICH of katiespeak.com took over. I interviewed her here about the unfuckers she is excited about and how unfuckery has become a way of life for her, how she avoids burn-out, and why she decided to speak up about her personal experiences with an unwanted pregnancy and abortion rights advocacy.

Today I interview Kari Otero who is a feminist and a Boudoir Photographer. A staunch feminist and an unfucker for women, Kari discussed with me both her artistic process, what she wants women to get out of this somewhat challenging experience, how differently women and men react to boudoir photography, as well as some stories and surprises along the way. And then she tries to convince me to do a boudoir photography session with her. You’ll have to wait 'til the end to see what happens… See Kari at www.mrsophoto.com.

My Feminism, Porn, and the Erotic Arts Series begins here! Join me and feminist entrepreneur Cindy Gallop as we talk about her new website, her dating younger men influenced by the porn industry, how to change porn and other things I can't mention in an itunes-hosted description...

MAKE LOVE NOT PORN.COM: My interview with founder CINDY GALLOP

Today I am joined by Iranian feminist comedian Negin Farsad, as we talk about feminism in comedy, racism, rationing cheesecake with immigrant parents, sex, boning (wait that’s the same thing), STD’s, more sex, and all the things you’d expect of muslim-related comedy. Just back from a comedy show tour of the south entitled, "The Muslims Are Coming!", Negin is a wunderkind of all things funny, feminist and Islamic. And generally combined. 

THE MUSLIMS ARE COMING: Interview with Iranian feminist comic NEGIN FARSAD

Today I talk with Gillian Thomas, a trial attorney with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. She talks with me about discrimination against women, porn on worksites, men peeing in women’s toolboxes, peeing in bottles and sealing them up in the walls of a building under construction, and well, more peeing. Gillian litigates employment discrimination including sex discrimination cases on behalf of women working in male-dominated fields, such as construction and law enforcement. Out of 11,000 firefighters in New York City, guess how many are women? 31. Not 31%. Not 3.1%, not even a third of a percent ...31 live human females. Surprised? Wait til you hear about what else goes on in these fields… 

My Daddy Works Here: Interview with GILLIAN THOMAS of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission

Comedian and actor John Fugelsang talks with me about Obama, comedy, religion, performing for the troops, right wingers, improv, hecklers, how being a new parent will inform his comedy, and why Jesus is the Liberal poster child. 

JOHN FUGELSANG interview: Comedy, Politics and Jesus

Actress and activist Kathy Najimy joins me for an honest, funny, and sassy conversation about feminism, activism, gay rights, animal rights, and how to keep up the fight and have a life at the same time. You’ll recognize Kathy from 25 films, including Sister Act, over 37 TV appearances, and from the infamous “Kathy & Mo Show” that basically created feminist sketch comedy. She was awarded MS. Magazine Woman of The Year, and is a comedic, feminist tour de force. See more at www.kathynajimy.com.

Dan Savage, author of the internationally syndicated sex advice column, “Savage Love,” and creator with his husband Terry Miller of the “It Gets Better Campaign,” joins me to talk about the success of the campaign in supporting LGBT youth, the role of straight alliance friends, the fact that Obama is UnF’ing it up for LGBT's -- albeit slowly --  and a new definition for the word Romney.

DAN SAVAGE: It's Getting A Hell of A Lot Better

Roy Zimmerman writes fiercely funny songs about ignorance, war and greed. In eleven albums over twenty years, Roy has brought the sting of satire to the struggle for Peace and Social Justice. In this interview, Katie and Roy talk about unf'ing it up through comedic songs, how they find endless inspiration from conservatives, and what you do when you end up in a room full of audience members who were expecting something a little less liberal.
