Summary
For the holiday weekend - John interviews author and cinema historian Michael Koresky about his new book "Sick and Dirty: Hollywood’s Gay Golden Age and the Making of Modern Queerness". Then, he speaks with Pennsylvania State Representative Jessica Benham about her disability activism and her work with LGBTQ+ Equality. She is the first openly LGBTQ+ woman and first openly autistic person elected to the Pennsylvania General Assembly. And lastly, John jokes with actor, writer, director, and co-creator of Super Troopers and Beerfest... Paul Soter. They chat about his new satirical mission: EvilPAC.org. As Creative Director of Americans for Prosparody, Soter is skewering the billionaire class and political corruption with biting wit and a fake "Super PAC" that imagines what it would look like if the ultra-rich were openly proud of buying American democracy.
