Maria and Tom interview Anna Thomson on PO PO MO CO at MICF.

We hear from Claire from PO PO MO CO (post post modern comedy), a 'debauched queer comedy troupe' about their show in Fringe. We then hear from Zakaria about TRANSTRAVAGANZA, involving 5 talented trans and gender diverse artists. We then hear Mary Tomsic, who co-wrote an article entitled 'Marriage Stinks' in Overland, discussing the need to be critical while supporting the 'yes campaign' for same gender marriage. There's also a shout out to the event Strength in Visions at Fringe. 

Talent shows are the shredded iceberg lettuce to broadcast TVs salad; a great space filler that, while nutritionally void, is hard to get wrong. You just need talent, or failing that, star power. (Alternately, core it first, remove the thinnest leaves, chop finely and refrigerate until serving #icebergtips) But what if you have neither? Well, you get Secret Talents of the Stars, a show where you can watch B to C list celebrities a) do something one step removed from what they’re already famous for, b) do something they’re not great at, or c) do something they’re really quite bad at. (Alternately, a) rocket lettuce can work if dressed to counter it’s iron-rich bitterness, b) carrots & radish, grated at length and topped with ginger and lime zest is a Thai-inspired delight, or c) cabbage is a reasonable swap, but be sure to finely slice any coarse leaves to prevent them from overwhelming any subtler flavours in your salad #greensRgreat) Or, d) watch George Takei put on a cowboy hat and have some dickhead hurl homophobic slurs at him. You know what? Iceberg lettuce sucks.
