Cocktails and Cream Puffs : Gay / LGBT Comedy Show

This is a week of fun, frivolity, and giddiness. Buffalo is under a tornado warning and 10 women from the Buffalo area ages 18-58 where busted for prostitution, don’t worry Wendy has been accounted for. Joey shares his first Grateful Deadish experience including his near death, Matt makes a confession, Marc shares his sound of climax, and we hear stories of Bleep.

We may have not won the Podcast Awards this year but that doesn’t matter because our “sister” show on the West coast did! Congratulations to Greetings From Nowhere the winner of Best General Podcast for 2011. This week’s episode is filled with laughter, celebrities behaving badly and Mariah Carey giving away her modern Christmas classic to anyone who will take it. Also Matt turned down the chance to sing a duet with the one and only Patti Labelle and we have a new fabulous listener in China!

Music from this week’s episode includes:

All I Want for Christmas performed by Michael Buble and Somewhere Over the Rainbow performed by Patti Labelle both available for download through the Amazon link at www.cocktailsandcreampuffs.com

It’s Halloween week and the boys reminisce about Halloween costumes past and for National Podcast Post Month we have our first of a series of interviews with podcaster beginning with Christine and Nicole from our “sister” podcast, Greetings From Nowhere.

For those of you who did not hear us LIVE this year from the Luxor Hotel in beautiful Las Vegas, Nevada for the Pride 48 weekend, here's your chance. The show is truly a technical train wreck, but hey we lived and learned and had the time of our lives.

PS Please don't adjust your speed at the beginning, Joey IS speaking a mile a minute and some.

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.
