The vlogosphere vibe has become really discouraging.
I resent the fact that someone banal, talentless, and totally common-denominator can become hugely successful just because they catch the zeitgeist.
What’s the long-term effect of having video online?
I know what I want out of vlogging and podcasting. A lot of other people want these same things too.

IRAN: A LESBIAN TORTURE VICTIM SPEAKS
This is for real. It is NOT a joke. This will be printed in the advocate today:
Iran_map_2 Maryam knew she was a lesbian from an early age, but in Iran, being gay is punishable by death. Facing far more than parental disapproval, she was kicked out of school, fired from a job, imprisoned, and tortured, all in an unsuccessful effort to change her sexual orientation. Finally, she escaped to France, where her asylum request was still pending at press time.
In this international exclusive, a lesbian victim of torture in the Islamic Republic of Iran speaks on the record for the first time about the horrors she suffered at the hands of a regime that has made homosexuality illegal and punishable by death. Maryam, 25, was expelled from school, forcibly hospitalized, arrested, and tortured for being a lesbian before finally escaping Iran. She eventually wound up in France, where she currently lives in an internment camp. Although she’s filed an application for asylum as a sexual refugee, given the conservative French government’s new crackdown on illegal immigrants, Maryam could be deported back to Iran at any moment. “I don’t know what I will do if the French government sends me back to where my execution pillar is awaiting me!” she says. Doug Ireland spoke to her by phone, aided by a Persian translator, from Paris, where she had traveled for a day to file documents for her asylum request. Here, in her own words, is Maryam’s story.

Yeast Radio-Mrs. Claus-04.24.05
Theatre producer/actor Steve Hickson joins Madge for a discussion of all kinds of fun things like beef jerky, lesbian sex, and tuna golf.
I’m very excited to present this interview with the late Major Richard J. Dailey’s right hand man, John Philips.
This is part 1 of 2. John has lived a life like Woody Allen’s Zelig. In this exclusive interview, he talks about catching Harry Truman from a dangerous fall, Meeting Queen Elizabeth II, Meeting Elenor Roosevelt and her Lesbian Lover, meeting both John F. and Bobby Kennedy, and many more people. I’m not making this up. It’s for real and not a bit. John is a friend of mine and his story was recently featured in Chicago Magazine. What John Philips really gives us is his unique view on how to live a meaningful life. This is a long two part interview and I’m presenting it unedited. You would never hear an interview like this unedited anywhere else but a podcast. You can fast forward if you want, but I suggest you take a walk and listen to every word. This man is a real treasure! Trust me, I’m a lesbian!
