“Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving to death!” So declares the title character in the 1958 comedy Auntie Mame. She introduces her Bohemian world to her nephew, Patrick, who comes under her care after he is orphaned. The movie’s celebration of individuality and independence inspired comedian Justin Sayre to embrace his own — whether as a gay person or a queer artist. “You don’t have to do anything you’re told,” he says. “You just have to be kind. And you just have to never stop looking. That’s it.”Justin Sayre is a writer, performer, and a regular fixture of the downtown cabaret scene in New York. His comedy album is The Gay Agenda and he’s also the author of a series of young adult novels — Husky, Pretty, and most recently, Mean.Find the transcript at https://onbeing.org/series/this-movie-changed-me/Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at https://onbeing.org/tmcmletter/

Actor and comedian Drew Droege joins Dave and Matt to chat about who he’s playing in Justin Sayre’s camp-horror soap opera Ravenswood Manor, why everyone should see Parasite over Joker, Drag Race challenge ambitions, and why “manufactured” really means “boring.” Later, Drew talks about navigating Scruff, enjoying living single, and his solo show Happy Birthday Doug.   This episode is sponsored by Mack Weldon (www.mackweldon.com code: HOMO) and hims (www.forhims.com/homo)

Author, comedian, playwright and actor, this is a man who does it all. But right now he's changing theater in some pretty awesome ways. He's doing episodic theater! Ravenswood Manor is your high camp, murderous mystery theater you've waited for. Tune in for more on this new idea and Justin himself.

Dick Leitsch is a dedicated activist for the gay community who served as the president of the New York chapter of the Mattachine Society and headed the legendary "Sip In" at the historic bar Julius over 50 years ago. He was also the first gay journalist to report on the original Stonewall riots. At age 82, he is a regular at the monthly Mattachine Party at Julius and now he joins the IOS membership to tell tales about his adventures. Plus, our host Justin Sayre presents his annual reflections on Gay Pride.

My guest this week is Justin Sayre, whom you may know from the excellent Sparkle and Circulate podcast, or his delightful live show The Meeting of the International Order of the Sodomites. He always knew there was a big queer community out there, but he never quite felt a connection with it, so he decided to do something about that: by appointing himself its chairman.

Justin Sayre chats with Carol Lipnik - the singer called "an ethereal vocal phenomenon" by The New York Times - about her latest album "Almost Back to Normal," her Sunday night residency at the downtown NYC club Pangea, and her influences from Mothra to Laura Nyro. She and Justin wax rhapsodic about Tennessee Williams, the 13th Century poet Rumi and B-movies of the 50s. Plus, Justin offers some simple tips on staying cool, calm and collected during the summer.

Carla Rhodes, Justin Sayre, Micaela Blei and Jacob Phillipsshare true stories at the Bell House in Brooklyn.

Author Michael Schulman tells us the inside story on the creation of his new book "Her Again: Becoming Meryl Streep," plus the live evening of Oscar acceptance speeches he produces and a particularly eventful interview with Grace Jones. Also, Justin Sayre gives his take on the gays and their iconic divas. 

He is a brilliant mind, a raconteur and a connoisseur of glamour. He's been seen on The Comeback and is a brilliantly funny writer on Two Broke Girls. When he sing the blues it will make your blues go away. He's the author of the YA novel "Husky". He is Justin Sayre.

Justin Sayre talks with comedian and television writer Guy Branum about Chelsea Handler, Billy Eichner and Joan Rivers, as well as the secrets of comedy and the nature of love. Guy discusses the creation of his recently-released debut comedy album "Effable." Also, Justin talks about his summer and getting back to work over at "2 Broke Girls."

Host and I.O.S. chair Justin Sayre welcomes the acclaimed biographer James Gavin, who discusses his latest book "Is That All There Is? - The Strange Life of Peggy Lee" and his previous tomes on legendary entertainers Lena Horne and Chet Baker, in addition to his history of intimate New York nightlife. Gavin tells us about his favorite recordings from these artists, as well as his upcoming book. Plus, Justin muses on his summer music selections.

There are those who add multi-hyphenates to their resume, hoping to throw their hands into any rings that might take them, and then there are polymaths, like Justin Sayre. Equally dexterous at writing for television, theater, and now print, he's also a consummate host of an utterly unique live show and crooner. In this episode, taped live at Joe's Pub, we spoke about his bitingly funny and shrew monthly show, The Meeting: Order of Sodomites, as well as writing for Two Broke Girls. He also performed two beautiful songs. Once you hear his sardonic wit, you'll know why I recommend checking out his debut book, Husky, which comes out in the Fall.

In the fourth episode, Justin Sayre - the Chairman of the International Order of Sodomites - has an in-depth conversation with Sarah Dash, one of the stars behind Labelle's iconic "Lady Marmelade" and her own hits like "Sinnerman." She shares her amazing journey and stories of working with Patti LaBelle, Diana Ross, Keith Richards, Dinah Washington (!) and more. Also, Justin talks about the organization's flagship holiday, International Bottom Appreciation Day. Ladies, this is one for the archives.

When Michael Patrick King saw a video of Justin Sayre, King, who produced of Sex in the City, 2 Broke Girls, and The Comeback, knew he'd found a like minded misfit. I imagine that's what happened. Granted, I can't imagine anyone not feeling that way when witnessing Sayre size up the state of political, social, and culture affairs, namely for the LGBT. A whip-smart, unconventional, and absurdly talented writer/performer, Sayre bridges old school cabaret with a refreshing candor in his monologues, sketches, songs, and parodies. We spoke backstage in the green room of Joe's Pub, before he hosted his monthly show, The Meeting of the International Order of Sodomites. We talked about blind ambition, Joan Rivers, and how he went from a downtown theater darling to writing for one of the most commercially successful, mainstream comedy television shows. His depth, dexterity, and wit is palpable. If you didn't know Justin, you will be happier now that you do, if not more noble....

In the second episode, Justin Sayre - the Chairman of the International Order of Sodomites - muses about the wonders of winter in New York. He chats with wonderful Frank DeCaro about gay marriage, his daily radio program on Sirius XM Satellite Radio and his tome "The Dead Celebrity Cookbook."

In our premiere episode, Justin Sayre - the Chairman of the International Order of Sodomites - talks about his new schedule commuting back and forth to L.A. to fulfill his board duties and has an in-depth conversation with famed New York journalist Michael Musto about his books (including the latest "Fork on the Left, Knife in the Back"), his longtime gig as nightlife reporter and celebrity interviewer for the Village Voice and his current column for Out.com.

In this episode: Justin Sayre brings his variety show, THE MEETING, satirizing the gay agenda to raise money and awareness for the Ali Forney Center, and organization dedicated to helping Homeless LBGT Youth. He came into the studio to discuss the organization and show. The Prospect Theatre Company brings the musical (and 2007 NYMF favorite) WITH GLEE to Theatre Row in July. Director, Igor Goldin and actor Dan Lawler talk about the show and share some recordings of the music. The Oberon Theatre Ensemble is bringing two plays to Theatre Row this summer; OTHELLO and new play, ORDER. Artistic Director Brad Fryman and (Former Tony Nominee) Austin Pendleton who is directing ORDER talk about the two play's connections. We've got more from the Planet Connections Festivity. Peter Dagger (Writer/Producer) and Matt Britten (Director/Producer) talk about their musical, BJ: A MUSICAL ROMP, and share a recording of one of the songs from the show! Marty Cooper shares his predictions for the Tony Awards this Sunday in ON THE POSITIVE SIDE. ...and one more Planet Connections show... Director Leah Bonvissuto and playwright, Felipe Ossa discuss the play CAKE. Both were involved with the favorite of last year's festival, Monetizing Emma, and aim for lighting to strike twice.
