Back in August of ‘06 I interviewed Dottie and Roby of Gay Into Straight Americaon MikeyPod episode 61. This episode generated more emails and comments then any other episode to date. if you didn’t get to hear it, please go back and check it out.

The reason I bring this up now is that tonight, Dottie and Roby are sitting in a Colorodo Springs jail after an act of Civil Disobedience in the office of Dr. James Dobson’s Focus On The Family. You can click here for the rest of the story.

Also, they need help raising bail money, if you can contribute there are pay pal links in the above referenced story.

Thanks, and please tell this story on your podcasts and to your friends and family.

Last Things Last- Rachel’s iTunes emusic

I credited this incorrectly on the show, the name of the album is Systems/Layers, the band is Rachel’s. Sad for me to screw that up, really. My apologies to Joe at Touch and Go | Quarterstick Records. it wasn’t until I started putting these shownotes together that I realized hat this was a Rachel’s track and not a side project of some sort.

Okay the greatest thing about listening to this show after recording it is that I refer to the letter writer as both Daryl and Dean. WTF?? Sorry, Daryl.

Hug your friendly neighborhood podcaster.
