Paul J Williams tells a story about how he tried alcohol, pot, cocaine, and ecstasy.  Each was not his thing and he walked away.  But, a perfect storm presented itself the first time he used crystal meth, while engaging is sex.  In that moment it calmed his shame of being gay, gay sex, being sexually abused, and his fear of being inadequate.  This went on for years until the final play of the perfect storm was an attempted suicide.  Clean and sober since 2015, Paul's story of what his life is like now is interesting and inspiring.  I suspect many will relate to some aspects of his journey.Paul's ProfilePaul's WebsitePaul's YouTube ChannelBook: The Velvet RageBe a GuestFollow Us on FacebookPower Moments With MaddoxAll Maddox's Links

For many of us it has felt strange and unnatural, but we are trying to keep it in the context of how it will improve our work when live performance returns. PHTO show at Madison Square Garden, anyone?! (I go on a long tangent mid-interview and it’s like WTF but just try to stay with me.) Lastly but not least-ly? Huh?

Season ten wraps up with a special episode featuring Sister Helen Holy in conversation at Wild Goose Festival. Sister Helen is a satirical character played by actor Paul J. Williams. Our conversation took place in character at Wild Goose Festival.

Welcome Black History Month. Welcome Ground Hog Day. Welcome President's Day. Welcome Valentine's Day. The Oscars! The Super Bowl! Gay cruises! February is one of our favorite months. And for our first episode of the year's shortest month, we're talking about the Super Bowl complete with commentary on the game, the black out, the commercials, and Beyonce's (lack-luster?) half-time show. We've also talking about the homophobic San Francisco 49ers; Steve's chafed nipples; the groundhog's shadow controversy; how Scott & Steve are preparing to get warm and crazy in Florida and the Caribbean; coming out via cake; the douche that is Texas governor Rick Perry; Twinkies WILL return; and, much more! After that, we welcome Los Angeles-based songwriter, producer and super hottie Markaholic. This creative dude is the mastermind behind some of our favorite viral songs and music videos including Boy is a Bottom (which we feature on this episode), Chow Down at Chik-fil-A and Jonny McGovern's Sexy Nerd, to name just a few. He's also recently wrote songs and scored the popular Neil's Puppet Dreams, starring Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka. (We hate him! Why can't WE work with NPH?! Jealous.) Mark talks to Scott at the 28:17 minute mark. Then, the boys all talk to Sister Helen Holy, the brainchild of Texas-based comedian Paul J. Williams. Helen brings her 701 Club to Swish and gives us some very godly advice about the evil gay cruisers and some pointers on personal style and living right! And Paul tells us how he's created his classic characters, how he got started in comedy, and why he's cruised with RSVP over 20 times. Helen & Paul are hilarious and they join us at the 53:25 mark. Curl up on the couch, get comfy and listen as Dale, Scott & Steve (and their friends) entertain you.
