The party preparations are under way for later in the week, but the ladies are drinking on the air, which is always makes it fun. Stayed tuned after the show for a special message from Denise.

In November of 2009, fresh off the Sweet Cruise, we did the 4th Annual Drunk Dial show on the eve of Thanksgiving and drunkenly spoke to musicians Julie Schurr and JD Danner as well as comedian Dana Goldberg. We also left a drunk voicemail for poor Cathy DeBuono (AGAIN!), and bothered lesbian event promoter Alison Burgos on her busiest night of the year. But, the best call was to actress Carly Pope ("Popular", "Arrow", "Suits", "YPF" "Elysium" "Itty Bitty Titty Committee") while she was on the set, filming a movie with Eric McCormack ("Will and Grace"). Ever the classy broads, we end on a bang when Denise proposed to Jemma on the air. Subscribe now so you won't miss any of our vintage classic shows as we re-play them all summer long. 

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 inaugural Sweet Cruise. Good stuff, good memories and good times!

May 28, 2008: Fresh off of a live appearence at the first ever SpaceCoast Pride (near the Melbourne area of South Florida) the girls re-live the trip, the performances, the crowd, and all the fun of the successful event. Other highlights on the show include drink of the week, a hilarious segment on anal beads, and the absolute total shredding of some lesbian personal ads off the internet.

Back in 2008 (March, to be exact) when we gave a crap about The Dinah, we had the event headliners make the rounds on our show and lucky for us the fabulous Jane Lynch ("Glee", "40 Year Old Virgin", "Best In Show" "The L Word") called in and hung out with us! We also had funny lady Suzanne Westenhoefer give us a ring to chat about her impending Dinah appearance. Later, we talk about work, drinks, the hotties of the week, the personal ads, and we take a few questions from Jemma. Keep up with us, be sure you are subscribed to get these re-vamped old, classic shows all summer long! Follow us on Twitter at @LesbianLounge  or visit MyLesbianRadio.com 

Heather and Nicole are back this month with a few things that are driving them crazy, like how people think it's okay to bend religion to have it suit them, also what's with this wave of Internet ads interfering with our funny videos, yo? Nicole rants about trains and how they should be obsolete by now while Heather has a fit over white priviledge. Oh come on, World! Feels good to know that there are people out there who get annoyed just like you do, doesn't it? Follow them on Twitter @Puss_Cast

If you're a long time listener, you know exactly what used to happen the Wednesday before Thanksgiving every year. It was our Drunk Dial Thanksgiving Eve show, and that's what we've got here. It was 2008, we were drinking, smoking and bothering everyone, including our mothers. Jemma was in NY, and calls in before she visited us for the very first time. (Who knew we'd end up married 3 years later??) We drunk dial Cathy DeBuono and Bridget McManus while we obsessed about what people were stuffing their turkeys with. Good times, Folks. Even if Donna thought it was a bad idea. A very bad idea. Enjoy these classic old shows all summer long courtesy of MyLesbianRadio.
