Randy Rainbow Takes His Queer Comedy to the World of Podcasts
There’s a new rainbow in the air — or at least, on the airwaves of cyberspace.Randy Rainbow, well known for his hilarious, politically charged parodies of show tunes and pop songs, is now the host of The Randy Rainbow Podcast, taking his work to a new level.The show, which launched September 22 and drops new episodes each Thursday, features interviews, comedy skits, and of course Rainbow’s trademark satirical songs. “It sort of gives me an opportunity to relax a little bit and be myself,” rather than always displaying the heightened, campy persona of his videos and concerts, he says — although that persona is in evidence in portions of the podcast.He had been meaning to do a podcast for a while, and the impetus to get him started came when he got a text message from a man he calls “the great Sean Hayes,” one of his childhood idols.
