Everyone is GLAAD to Have a Six Pack

Ben and I hit the GLAAD awards last night and knocked out plenty of interviews on the red carpet. We'll be posting clips of them in the next day or two and the full interviews will be in episode #36 of The Six Pack. Fittingly, (and proof that I'm onto something here) Joy Behar received the Excellence in Media Award, which was given to her by former View co-host Meredith Viera.

I'm not sure I linked to this years ago, but way back when, as Meredith prepared to start her gig at The Today Show, Carlos and I bumped into her at our local pet store. It was the very day we were picking Emma up from the shelter, and Meredith, being super friendly, starting chatting us up. Little did we know, but the woman she was with was a reporter for the New York Times and we were gonna get a little mention in an article about her. You can click here and find the part about us.

Anyway, it was a really great evening and we talked to some people we've chatted with before and some new people, including one person who was recently in a little movie called Avatar that may have made it to a theater near you.

Clips coming!

Live from St. Olaf, It's Saturday Night!

The rumor-fest is over, and it is finally official, Betty White will be guest-hosting Saturday Night Live on May 8th, 2010. I'll have to clear out my whole week so you probably won't hear from me around then but we've still got some time before it happens.

And now enjoy this clip of Betty accepting the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Golden Globes from a few months ago. The line about now Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock is pricesless...

Six Pack #35 - "Latin Drag Queens"

Live Oscar Tweeting

Follow me @Rubinville. This stuff is comedy gold.

Literally.

And pun-ily.

Rubinville: Now a Capitalist Website

Sure, Socialism is in these days. Sure, I've run this website with no ads for over seven years. Sure, I spent many years doing stand up for nothing. And, sure, I'm an artist and as such struggle with the idea of making a dime of my talents and hard work.

BUT...

If Dane Cook can sell enough t-shirts on his site to have his brother-in-law steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from him, well, then I want that chance, too!

So, allow me to officially introduce the Rubinville Store, which you can get to by clicking the button in the right column, or by clicking here.

I think you'll all enjoy the Rubinville and Shady Pines shirts and sweatshirts. And for the inner trucker in you, there is even the Rubinville Trucker Hat, pictured above.

Do know that all proceeds will go to me continuing to do all this madness that you all check in here to stay abreast of.* It does take a little dough to keep Rubinville humming and buzzing, believe it or not.

Whether you buy something or not, I will keep doing what I do, and I hope you will keep making that a little part of your day.

*Proceeds will cover the costs of said madness and the occasional margarita.

The Six Pack is Spreadin'

From Queerty.com...

Ben Harvey and Dave Rubin are the two banter boys behind Ben & Dave's Six Pack, the weekly gay podcast that might be featuring a Broadway star, soap actor, or porn performer depending on which week you tune in. But you must tune in this week, because Queerty has teamed up with B&D (that's bottom and doggystyle) to find out whether either of these fellas actually sports a six pack. Or rather, because Joy Behar — whose HLN show is dedicated to The Gays — checks in.

Six Pack #34 - "Join the Joyride"

Our idol Joy Behar joins the Six Pack as our Skype guest this week, proving that dreams do come true. Is she the hardest working woman in show biz? What does she think of Snooki and J-Woww? What exactly is psycho drama and why won't Barbara Walters take part in it? Joy has no qualms about giving us her brutally honest answers. Be sure to check out The Joy Behar Show on HLN at 9pm EST and of course every weekday on The View.


We've got our own hot topics to cover in Top to Bottom: Apple is going "explicit," CPAC is going gay, and you're never going to want to eat another hot dog. (Of the food variety, at least.) Top to Bottom is now powered by Queerty.com, where you can go for all the latest in gay news and opinion. They're "free of an agenda, except that gay one."

Since we pride ourselves on hunting down the latest trends, our newest "Missed Connections Set to Love Songs" is by people who have lost love on ChatRoulette.com. NEXT! Group Action brings us more international love, including a Skype voicemail all the way from Sri Lanka. Download now and take a little time to enjoy The View...err, Six Pack!

This episode of the Six Pack is brought to you by Audible.com. Download an audiobook of your choice today for FREE at audiblepodcast.com/sixpack. Might we recommend Joy Behar's e-book?

Hide Your Punchlines

Jay Leno returns to The Tonight Show tonight, months after bombing on his prime-time show and helping to force out Conan O'Brien from his former gig.

What, you don't care? Me neither. It shall not be mentioned again here.

Our episode with the fabulous Joy Behar will be up later today. You can grab it off iTunes as always, but I'll post it here this afternoon...
