Listen up, today we have a comedian who's funny, topical, informed and about to blow up. We'll deep dive into what makes him funny and his career through stand up. He's also on a podcast called "The Gay Power Half Hour". Check him out there and around the country when he's making people laugh in a city near you.

He’s one of the hottest gay rappers and DJs on the club scene with such hits as Ice Cream Truck, No Selfie Control, and Rice and Beans, and you can catch his new single “I Love You” out now, here to talk about this and his brand new podcast with co-host drag superstar Miss Peppermint, “It’s a Mess”  well. We're excited to bring you an interview with Cazwell! 

From comedy clubs around LA, to the list of comedians to watch in 2019, she's making waves in the funny business of comedy. She's funny, she's experienced and most of all she's a good conversation we'd love to share with you. We'll talk orange juice, Bullion and of course the funny business of being a comedian.

This weeks guest certainly has a lot of layers to her.  Acting to podcasting to science she does it all. She once said that human beings have two major needs, to discover and to create and she has made time for both.  You’ve seen her in such hit shows as A Million Little Things and you can catch her currently on TNT’s Animal Kingdom. We'll chat about everything from Sharks to finding her characters in her major roles. Don't miss Christina Ochoa in this weeks episode.

Matthew McKelligon is quirky, intelligent, artistic, and a good dose of handsome, that’s how you make a guy like me, but coincidentally our next guest checks all those boxes as well.  You can catch him in the upcoming new and final season of the hit series Eastsiders on Netflix. Here to talk to us about this highly anticipated closing chapter and how exciting it is to be on our show, we are proud to welcome actor, Matthew McKelligon to the lounge.

Our next guest is a busy one. He’s in two back to back summer series this year - “Yellowstone” where he plays opposite Kevin Costner and freeforms “Good Trouble”. You’ll also be able to see him in the upcoming film “The Chickasaw Rancher” and on the cover of this months CH2 magazine. But today, you’re hearing him on The Martini Lounge. Welcome, Denim Richards to the lounge.

Our next guest comes from an acting legacy with not one but two parents who are successful in the industry. She is also an award winning actor and a director in her own right, but just because you seem to have it all on the outside doesn’t mean you do. In her new book “Eat, Pray, #FML”  Gabrielle Stone talks of death and loss and betrayal at a level most of us have only seen in soap operas and how she has risen above it all to find happiness and her sense of self all over again. We are proud to welcome her to the lounge.  

With Millions of views on YouTube, our next guest has been celebrated by CNN, Billboard and Entertainment Weekly as a creator to watch! He created signature broadway mashups such as Ham 4 Bey, Gaga 4 Rent and more. He is bringing theater into the digital world and his focus aims to highlight LGBT artists and artists of color. We’re excited to welcome Michael Korte to the lounge.

Big thanks to The Sportsmens Lodge in Studio City for allowing us a wonderful place to record. 

He's the wisdom giving, laugh evoking, buttery voiced actor and he's here in the lounge. From Eastsiders to voice overs to soaps, he's an acting machine. In the new 4th season of eastsiders coming this fall he'll show you exactly why we all fan over him. But in this episode, we'll talk wisdom, advice, 2001: A Space Odyssey and more. Don't miss this weeks interview with Leith Burke! 

The creator, actor, director behind Westfalia, the short film movie we love, is in the lounge. We have a blast chatting about everything from camping to the acting struggles. Haley Finnegan is one of our favorite and funniest guests yet.
