<title>Ben and Dave's Six Pack</title>
<link>http://www.bendave.com</link>
<description>Ben and Dave's Six Pack is a podcast creation from veteran radio jock Ben Harvey and NYC comic Dave Rubin. The show features discussion of hot button gay issues, celebrity and band interviews, and hand-picked new music...all in six easy-to-digest segments!  In 2008, Entertainment Weekly likened the openly gay on-air duo to a "mas macho" version of Ryan Seacrest and Simon Cowell. Compliment or insult? Decide for yourself.

<title>Postmodern Mashup</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.m4a/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack31.m4a</link>
<description>Sandra Bernhard joins the Six Pack this week, proving that our Twitter stalking paid off! Not only is she as funny, outspoken, and spunky as ever, but she's got a squash cooking in the oven. (And we don't mean that as a euphemism.) Tune in for all the salacious details, and if you're in Chicago go see her live on Valentine's Day! Speaking of love, it seems a lot of straight chicks have opinions on whether gays can be monogamous these days...but what do the gays have to say? More info on our upcoming trip to Turks and Caicos with Straight Out Adventures, plus find out how you can win a month free at Equinox Fitness clubs...just in time for you to get your six packs in shape for the trip. All the details at www.bendave.com.</description>

<title>Sherlock Homos</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.m4a/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack29.m4a</link>
<description>Queerty editor David Hauslaib joins the Six Pack this week and gives us the 411 on everything from Prop 8 to Uganda to shirtless YouTube sensation Davey Wavey! We're also interviewing Mikey, the guy behind "A Gay Hockey Kid's Life," a blog that's all the buzz over at OutSports.com. We're getting down and dirty in Top to Bottom talking about Rosie O'Donnell's new GF, Avatar depression, and 3D porn. Also this episode we've become self-proclaimed Sherlock Homos, as we investigate the ways in which three different celebrities have recently addressed questions about their sexuality. Which one is queer (but not gay) and which one would rather die in a natural disaster before announcing his homosexuality? Gotta click play to find out. And finally, want to go to Turks and Caicos with us in May? Want to work out with us at NYC's hottest gym? Details coming soon.</description>

<title>Masc Jock vs. Bossy Bottom</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.m4a/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack28.m4a</link>
<description>Broadway star Nick Adams joins us as the first guest of 2010 and tells us about the upcoming revival of "La Cage aux Folles," his alleged feud with Mario Lopez, and how he maintains his sick six pack. We'll be talking about trannies in the White House, HD booty Skypes, and pop stars coming out as bisexual. Speaking of bi, we're examining the gay community's obsession with "bi masc jocks" and "bossy bottoms." You don't want to miss our analysis, especially since it involves the new bi guy on MTV's "The Real World," Mike Manning. Ben's GUMBO (Gay. DUMBO. Party.) party is this Thursday the 14th @ Galapagos Art space in Brooklyn, and we'll be interviewing Ari and Dave from GetGayTravel.com, a new NYC based travel company providing luxury chauffeur service to and from the show! Oh, and did Mr. Rubin finally join Grindr? Interested homos want to know. And don't forget, if you want every episode earlier than everyone else, look us up in the iTunes store and click "Subscribe."</description>

<title>I Didn't Ask Him His Name</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.m4a/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack27.m4a</link>
<description>After a long, hard 2009 talking to porn stars, reality fame whores, and gaylebrities, we decided to take time to recuperate over the holidays. (Yes, we're in rehab.) We'll be back in action with a full episode next week, but please enjoy this special New Year's edition of the Six Pack. We compiled the best "Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Music" from the past year and smooshed them all together into one show. But don't fret, we've still got a fresh story for you about our night out with Mason Wyler... and don't miss our special international installment of "Missed Connections" dedicated to our listeners from around the world. Happy 2010!</description>

<title>A Very Ticklish Christmas</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.m4a/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack26.m4a</link>
<description>The multi-talented Mason Wyler Skypes into the show with plenty of "ho ho ho" spirit. You may have seen Mason displaying his jingle balls on our new partner site, Guys with iPhones, but we're betting he's nowhere to be found on Guys I Blocked on Grindr (our other new partner!). We interrogate Mason about everything from "Spokes 3" to sex addiction to being a self-professed attention whore. Mason also reveals a disturbing experience involving tickle torture, and he stirs up new controversy with some fine words for Zane from Chaos Men (also known as ZTT). Is ZTT really a tweaked out version of "Maria Full of Grace," or is Mason just blowing smoke? Either way, he cracks us up. Top to Bottom brings us news about Bruce Springsteen, Houston's lesbian mayor, incestuous gay twins Miloh and Elijah Peters, and the top trending Twitter topics of the year. We've got a new "Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Music," and this one is gonna do George Michael proud. If that's not enough, Kristine W joins us to talk about her Christmas dance single and new double DVD set. Mix together one gentile, one Jew, and a whole bundle of holiday cheer, and you've got the final Six Pack of 2009! Enjoy.</description>

<description>Dustin Lance Black, Lance Bass, Nicholas Rodriguez, Victor Garber, and Judy Gold all stop by to chat with us on the red carpet at the Emery Awards. That's a pretty hot helping of guests, right? This week we also studied up on the latest giblets of gay gossip: In top to Bottom we'll talk about idiotic Texan lawmakers, fancy schmancy McDonald's restaurants, Larry King's son, and Oprah's adopted gay child. We may have dropped the ball on our Scientology investigation, but to make up for it we're revealing our latest investigation of "chill, laid back Str8 dudes." Yep. To come out or not come out during a job interview? That is the question. Plus, we've got one last Group Action before Thanksgiving. Next time you hear from us we'll be on board the Royal Caribbean post-Thanksgiving cruise with Pied Piper Travel. Expect the unexpected.</description>

<title>Good for the Gay Trees</title>

<description>We're baaaaaack, just like your friend Herpes, and we've got a lot lined up for you. Marc Shaiman is the latest to tap into our Skype machine and will be telling us all about his prolific career, including "Hairspray" and "Prop 8: The Musical," plus giving insight into Neil Patrick Harris, Shirley MacLean, and even his views on what's in store for 2012. In Top to Bottom, we'll make a final proclamation about your favorite is-he-or-isn't-he gay CNN anchor; tell you why Breckenridge, Colorado, has become the doobie ski bum capital of America; examine the true motives behind the FDA's crackdown on caffeinated booze drinks; and ponder the future of gay media since the demise of "The Advocate." Music for Homos brings us a couple exciting discoveries: We've got a listener request from the very hoity-toity Yale University, and the homo lead singer of super suave British band Bloc Party has released a solo track. We're devoting an entire segment to Swine Flu, which is wreaking havoc upon full figured women on subways, as well as cats in Middle America. Oh, and in case you missed us live and in the radio flesh on Sirius XM OutQ last week, take a listen to a clip we've got for you from the Frank DeCaro Show. Group Action brings you some international electronic communication from Mexico city and the lovely Kyrgyzstan! Tune in next week for interviews with Lance Bass, Dustin Lance Black, Victor Garber, Heather Mattarazzo, Kimora Lee Simmons, and a bunch more! And just remember...please recycle!</description>

<description>Israeli music superstar Ivri Lider returns to the program, this time as our first international Skype guest. Ivri talks about gays in the military, life in Tel Aviv, and who the song "Jesse" is really all about. It's our post-Halloween show, which means Top to Bottom has some scarrry topics like: the Internet is so old we actually remember the early days of Prodigy and MicroMUSE; Anderson Cooper got caught by the paparazzi with his boyfriend in India; plus, the aliens are coming and we want you to watch their arrival along with us. But enough of this serious stuff... we're starting a new segment of good clean fun featuring a new "Six Pack Guy" every month - and that means we're looking for Six Packers like you. (If you're single, that is.) This week we continue our analysis of the gayest story on Earth, Scientology. You won't believe the latest developments, but if you like aliens and saunas, this segment is for you. We'll also be launching our own New York investigation of Scientology, so watch out Tom Cruise! Please remember to check us out every day next week on Sirius XM. We'll be hosting with Frank DeCaro every day from 11am-2pm.</description>

<description>Bruce Vilanch of "Hollywood Squares" fame is our Skype victim this week, and wait until you hear about his new movie, "Oy Vey My Son is Gay!" Don't confuse Bruce Vilanch with the Russian bear we'll be talking about in Top to Bottom... and things only get more salacious from there. Magic Johnson and Isiah Washington are at odds with one another - but is this really just a long overdue lover's quarrel? A Saudi Arabian journalist has been sentenced to 60 lashings for talking about sex toys on TV. Plus, we've got a HUGE announcement about Carnie Wilson. In our Gay Crime Time segment, we'll be focusing on gay criminals from the UK. We'll also be giving and getting some international love in Group Action. (We're all equal opportunity like that!) Oh, and want more of this drivel in your ears every single day? Well tune in to us on Sirius/XM satellite radio the week of November 9th. We'll be guest hosting Frank DeCaro's show every day from 11am-2pm. Get your dialing fingers ready!</description>

<description>Scott Evans is our guest this week on Skype, and he talks about playing a gay cop on "One Life to Live," plus what he thinks of Pretentious Gay Tools (PGTs). Oh, and he just happens to be the younger brother of Chris Evans. We've reached 20 episodes, and we'd like to dedicate this one to balloon boy and Rick Sanchez. In Top to Bottom, John Mayer is getting drunk in gay bars and kissing boys, a new iPhone app is pissing off treehugers everywhere, and Twitter users are apparently rich bastards! Music for Homosexuals brings you a hot tune from Calvin Harris. The Fox Sexpert is still dispensing lots of information, which means we've got a new round of Straight List, Gay Twist. Happy Happy Joy Joy - find out what Ren and Stimpy and Joy Behar have in common. Plus we've got a Skype message from one peeved Kathy Griffin Fan. Fly away with us on episode 20 of the Six Pack!</description>

<description>Trailblazing comedian Bob Smith Skypes in and tells us what it was like being the first openly gay comic on the Tonight Show, plus he gives us some advice about our upcoming cruise. In Top to Bottom, we've got an update on the Atlanta bar raid, and some of these new details are pretttty interesting. You'll also find out: Which celeb do guys seeking plastic surgery want to look like? What're the most annoying words that people, like, say? And is birth control changing women's attraction to men?  Huh? Whatever. This week in Music for Homosexuals, we're branching out beyond the USA, bringing you music from openly gay Israeli singer Ivri Lider. We'll also explain why we couldn't attend the Equality March in DC this weekend, and why some people are saying the event has led to a divide in the gay community. Back by popular demand, we've got another installment of 'Craigslist Missed Connections Set to Love Songs!' Pucker up and open wide because this show is gonna be a mouthful!</description>

<description>Jenni Pulos from Bravo's "Flipping Out" Skypes in to dish the dirt on Jeff Lewis and life behind the scenes of the reality show. Jenni declares Zoila the most famous housekeeper in America and even gets a little naughty with us - all we can say is it rhymes with "sock ring." Top to Bottom brings you stories about Marc Jacobs and his former "kept" man Jason Preston, budding talk show maven Joy Behar, and a disturbing new American Girl doll. The post-Thanksgiving Caribbean cruise is fast approaching, and we have Lyman Goodrich from Pied Piper Travel on the show to tell you more about it. Also: Wanna hear bad renditions of the "Growing Pains" and "Wendy Williams Show" theme songs? How about Dave singing from "Fiddler on the Roof?" Well, suffice it to say you'll get all of the above in this episode. Also, check us out on Sirius XM Friday Oct. 9 from 11am-2pm guest hosting on OUTQ (Sirius 109/XM 98). And finally... please kindly take our audience survey - only good things can come of it - we swear! Thanks.</description>

<description>Chris Salvatore and Michael Walker from "Eating Out 3" join us for our first four-way Skype experience, and they don't disappoint. Plus Chris sticks around to play a track from his album in our Music for Homosexuals segment. Top to Bottom has us on our toes this week: Guess who's got his own radio show? Contracted swine flu? Had sex with 2.8 million people? We'll tell you who. Details magazine concocted a list of "63 Signs You're a Pretentious Tool," and we'll be sifting through the list. Better yet, we want you to help us make a new list of signs you're a GAY tool. Shouldn't be too difficult. Coming Out 2.0 explores what it's like coming out of the closet in middle school, which makes us feel old. What else? Ketosis dieting, the Beefcake iPhone app, delicious tapas, and monkey butts - it's all in this episode of the Six Pack. Boing!</description>

<description>Former CNN Headline News anchor Thomas Roberts Skypes in to talk home improvement, Wolf Blitzer's beard, and being 'out' in broadcasting. In Top to Bottom, we're full of surveys and statistics about well, um... you'll see. Also find out about who was caught licking chickens and why Lady Gaga loves God and the gays. We're getting all French techno on you with some music from Sebastien Tellier. Poly parties? Throuples? We'll be discussing the ins and outs of the new phenomenon of Polyamory.

Straight List, Gay Twist - it's back - and we're trying to see if the "Romeo and Juliet Syndrome" applies to us. The "homotastic" shenanigans of the Cartoon Network are making us go, "Homo say wha?" And there's still time to send in your photos for the "Six Packers with iPhones" contest for 2xist freebies!</description>

Word on the street is that Scientology is blackmailing John Travolta - Homo Say What? And which colleges are the most gay friendly? We'll tell you the answer. Plus tune in for a Cut Copy remix track and find out how you can win free shiznit from 2xist Underwear (hint: it involves you, your torso, and an iPhone.)</itunes:summary>

<description>Kelli O'Donnell (Yes, Rosie's wife) Skypes in to talk about R Family Cruises.

The guys search for a "Six Pack" theme song... Keith Olbermann is bored by Adam Lambert... An Egyptian man cuts off his member... And ESPN is obsessed with stars from Fratmen.TV. Appearances by Paul Case, Mike Singer, Shawn Hollenbach, and Adam Lehman.  Next week: Dustin Lance Black's nude photos - what does this mean for gay America?</description>

<title>Hazy Recollections</title>
<link>http://podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/www.benharvey.net/podcasts/sixpack5.mp3</link>
<description>New to the show?  This is the place to begin, an episode highlighting segments from previous shows before the "Six Pack" came to fruition. In this episode we focus our hazy recollections on: Bea Arthur, swine flu, Anderson Cooper's not-gayness, guy-stalking on the subway, Howard "I love the Gays" Stern, HPV (unrelated to Howard...we think?), Obama's Blackberry, Paula Abdul's pill-popping, Proposition 8, ladies of "The View," and a band that's all about mascara.  If you're a long-time listener, hope you enjoy the re-runs, and we'll be back soon enough with brand new episodes...and comedian Caroline Rhea Skyping in!</description>
