It's been a crazy-ass gay week and we cover it all!  Melyssa and Dave talk about the asshats in North Carolina, President Obama's "evolving", an unbelievable homophobe that has to be seen to be believed and a local black leader's reaction to all of this.  Facebook is squeezing Dave.  Melyssa cusses before, during and after sex.  Charlie Sheen Tampons?

Clarke Conde and Heather Knappen join us to talk about Clarke's new book and project Work In Rochester.  Dave's in it.  Heather's in it.  Melyssa's job is in it.  You should be checking this bad boy out.  We also try to figure out how to score an original Bob Ross.  Melyssa's taking a collection for a house warming gift for Dave and Eve.  Heather recounts her political travels.  Not everyone loves a parade.

Melyssa and Dave, together again.  Melyssa fills us in on her trip to Cape Cod - ODing on lobster and more.  Dave goes back down to Washington DC for ADAPT and gets arrested, again.  Listen to his blow-by-blow description of the week, including his night in jail with actor, Noah Wyle.  He was able to get a short interview with Noah, too.  Check it out.  And we wrap up the show with a brief discussion about Egyptian corpse fuckers.  It's called "farewell intercourse".  How romantic.

Part 2 of our conversation with Renee, Cheryl and Grace from BRAWL - Broads Regional Arm Wrestling League. We come up with some awesome new band names for you to steal.  Emo actor, Joseph Gordon Levitt, wedding stuff, busty women and more is bandied about.  Hope to see you on Saturday, April 28th at Skylark Lounge, 8pm for some lady arm wrestling.  We're sure to put a Stuart stamp on the event.

While Melyssa's away, the mice shall play.  Dave hangs out with Juliette and the orgnaizers of BRAWL - Broads Regional Arm Wrestling League.  Renee, Cheryl and Grace joined the show to talk about their upcoming event to raise money and awareness for the Rochester Rape Crisis Center.  And as always we had a blast as we sipped on Brown Julius.  Does anyone know Sylvester Stallone's Mom?  Because butt reading and arm wrestling go...uh...hand-in-hand.  Local weatherdude, Rich Caniglia didn't get a big thumbs up from BRAWL.  Much, much more. 

BRAWL goes down April 28th, 8pm at the Skylark Lounge, 40 S. Union St.  Suggested donation is only $2 so don't be cheap.

Dave, Melyssa and Eve in the house.  Melyssa is getting ready to leave on her first real vacation.  Eve's never had one.  Dave's have been business or family.  She's promised to bring us back crabs.  A shout out to the person driving around town blasting The Stuart Bedasso Show out your window.  You Rock!  No one on the show but Dave realized that Beaver Watch was (still is?) a feature of Hustler Magazine.  The joys of house hunting.  The joys of hotel sex.

Our old friend GLB joins us for a mellow edition of The Stuart Bedasso Show.  Good music, good friends, good conversation.  Dave is back from Arizona and brought a little piece of the remains of Dead Uncle Glenn with him.  Then there's the Tingling Vagina story.  It's hard to explain, you just have to hear it.  Both Melyssa AND Dave have begun house hunting.  No, not together.  But it does mean that there will be a new Dikoff Studio.  Enjoy!
