Who could forget the time we had "The L Word" star Janina Gavankar ("Papi") on the show? Back in September 2009, we had the funnest interview ever with the L Word star, calling in from her LA home and sharing with us with set gossip, laughs, music and family antecdotes all while taking questions from the live chat room listeners. We also discuss one of our first visits from Hazel, our London listener who flew in to Florida to meet us before we embarked on the all the first ever all lesbian inaugural Sweet Cruise. Good stuff, good memories and good times! Be sure you're subscribed to our feed for all of our classic Lesbian Lounge shows as we re-live some of our best times and best guest interviews!
