    Shaw Knight - Muscle for Hire
    Nov 10 2024
    Bodybuilding isn’t cheap- food, gear, training, and coaching can make the road to becoming a legend super expensive.

    Now that’s where the generous benefactors come in handy!

    Famous bodybuilders like Arnold Schwartzenegger, Sylvester Stallone and Kai Greene made money as muscle for hire and it wasn’t always as security detail. Muscle worship and muscle posing can sometimes bring in the bucks if you find the right audience.

    Let’s Grow Big Together! The podcast that invites you to come to the muscle worship party, even if you’re not jacked yet.

    In this series, we take a look at the passion for muscle, adventures in bodybuilding, muscle gods, muscle worship and practical advice to put on the gains.

    Today long term listener, go-go boy and musical theater enthusiast Shaw Knight takes us behind the scenes of lavish muscle worship parties you’ve always heard about but seemed too wild to be true.

    Keep Kamala and Carry On-a-La
    Nov 5 2024
    Democratic candidate Kamala Harris made an appearance for two and a half minutes on Saturday Night Live’s opening sketch to address people’s anxiety over the election.

    Harris said the best we can do is use our power to vote, and hold on tight to the promise that America will get through this.

    FCC commissioner and author of Project 2025 Brendan Carr filed a complaint against NBC television, stating the broadcast network violated “equal time” rules, which wasn’t the case since the network did reach out to Trump with their campaign declining.

    Today we make the case for voting for Kamala Harris, even if you have grave misgivings.

    Today we take a look at the election to end all elections and this year’s Halloween costumes with comedian Dan Cass, one of Chicago's top comedy writers and performers, who spent time in Russia studying experimental theater.

    Damon L. Jacobs' Project $20.25
    Oct 21 2024
    The 2024 US Presidential election is a real nail biter. It’s now a choice between maintaining our democracy or turning the government over to a dictator, so it’s no wonder this election is causing a lot of anxiety, even pop stars and baby hippos are shooketh.

    Project 2025, the well funded political scheme by the right wing hate group The Heritage Foundation hopes to replace all Federal leaders and judges with ultraconservatives loyal to Trump. The plan also calls for concentration camps for LGBTQ+ folks, immigrants and women who’ve had abortions.

    Thankfully our friend, family therapist and PrEP activist Damon L. Jacobs has his own Project for 2025, calling it “PROTECT 2025” where he invites undecided voters living in one of the 7 swing states to have a conversation about the election with him. If they do, he will give them $20 and 25¢ for twenty minutes of their time.

    Ka ching!

    What does Damon hope to accomplish? Today Damon L. Jacobs joins us to look at the 2024 US Presidential Election between Trump and Harris, and why, like George Takei says, it’s urgent for all LGBTQ+ folks to take a stand and speak out.

    Outsider Music Legend Jan Terri
    Sep 29 2024
    Long before folks enjoyed watching oddball viral videos on the Internet, the only way to see these outrageous movies was to share physical video cassette tapes from person to person.

    One of the stars of this tape sharing phenomenon was musician Jan Terri, whose wonderfully weird music videos got the attention of a lot of people, including celebrities Marilyn Manson and his girlfriend at the time Rose McGowan. Manson even had Jan open for him in concert.

    After taking some time off for personal reasons, Jan made a spectacular comeback in the early days of YouTube when the video for her song “Losing You” became a hit as the “Worst Music Video Ever.” It still ranks as the top video for the term, with 5.9 million views to date.

    Today counterculture legend Jan Terri joins us to look at her roller coaster life in music, putting out a children’s book and a cookbook for folks living in dorms and life as an accidental internet superstar, long before there was an Internet.
