I’m offline all day in meetings and appointments and stuff, but in the meantime check out the wee meme hitting my inbox from a variety of unrelated sources: the upcoming film Psychopathia Sexualis. Tony Comstock blogged about it then got to talk to the film’s director Brett Wood. Viviane blogged it (meta link); but you…

Before I run off to BEA, I should let you know about the new podcast I uploaded before I left SF — it’s one of my all-time favorite interviews to date. If you want to laugh, listen in! Text: In the ongoing interview series I’m doing at NPR, this has to be one of my…

This afternoon I got my pirate radio fix in the Mission and recorded a live session of Open Source Sex, interviewing Shine Louise Houston, the mastermind behind Pink and White Productions. I think it was one of the best interviews yet — it was hot, sexy, hilarious and really really fun. We chatted about lesbian…

As seen on Fleshbot yesterday, my podcast interview with Tristan Taormino is live — in audio MP3 and video M4V versions! Tristan sent me a bunch of still photos from her ‘reality porn’ movie House of Ass for the podcast, and after the jump I’ve hand-picked some very nsfw selections; a few of my favorites.…

From deep in the book deadline mineshaft, I have to share with you the movie I’m most excited to see right now: I’ve watched the trailer for X-Men 3: The Last Stand way, way too many times now. I’m thrilled that part of the movie takes place in San Francisco, but I’m also obsessed with…

You really have to see the video of Stephen Colbert’s address to the White House Press Corps at their annual dinner to believe that it really happened. At the same table as GW Bush and Laura, in front of WH staff, Supreme Court justices and all the WH press bigwigs — Colbert officially smartly ripped…
