They Said’s post-Super Bowl chat fest featured a new face on panel, the fabulous wine gal Amber Regan, who spoke lesbianese for this week’s roundtable of news & hot topics. Courtney, Ian, Jerimiah & Alejandra helped Amber get settled in, before diving in the Super ‘Madonna’ Bowl / commercial madness, which included some feisty words for CNN’s Roland Martin and his off-color comments about guys liking David Beckham’s H&M underwear ad. The crew also touched on Prop 8, Planned Parenthood, Susan G. Komen For The Cure and gave their take on boycotts and businesses refusing service to patrons. Ian finished off with several upcoming events including the San Diego Flag Football clinics, Laugh Out Proud comedy night at Martinis Above Fourth and the monstrously yummy Dining Out For Life.

With Jerimiah galavanting around the U.S. and a miscommunication with our first guest lesbian forcing the panel to be short two co-hosts, the remaining They Said crew had plenty to talk about, and rightfully so, as both Ian and Courtney sat in awe over Alejandra’s voluptuous-ity! After getting all the niceties out of the way, they dove headfirst into a full list of topics that included POTUS’ SOTU, Cynthia Nixon’s “choice” of bisexuality, RuPaul’s Drag Race (#TeamChad), the Super Bowl, Madonna, the Muppets retort to Fox News, prenuptial agreements and calls to 911. Then, Courtney put San Diego media on ‘alert’ regarding the mudslinging over San Diego’s mayoral race. Finally, Ian finished off with some upcoming events. Don’t forget to head out and support San Diego American Flag Football this season and Dining Out For Life this April. Read More
Ian, Courtney & Jerimiah welcomed Executive Producer Aaron to the They Said panel at our Brass Rail studio as the resident ‘transian’ (trans + lesbian) to dish this week’s list of news & topics. Hot on the list, of course, was Courtney’s favorite sport, football, and the upcoming Super Bowl. Of course, Aaron & Ian were more excited about Madonna’s half-time performance & the commercials, which now have a bracket of their own for all your Super Bowl party fun. From NFL to college, the crew discussed the rather awkwardly-announced passing of former Penn State head coach Joe Paterno. Then, they talked Oscars, Starbucks offering beer & wine, same-sex marriage in Washington state, Cynthia Nixon’s “choice to be bisexual” and our ongoing search for They Said’s resident lesbian. If you think you’ve got what it takes, email Aaron or Courtney and we’ll have you on as a guest host to test your skills. Read More
They’re baaaaaaack! They Said hit the Brass Rail studio square table for their first chat session of 2012. Noticeably absent was our lesbian voice, Kelly, who during hiatus made the difficult decision to leave the show permanently to focus efforts on caring for her family. The entire HSSS team will miss her but know she’ll be back to fill in when she can. Courtney got Ian, Jerimiah & Alejandra talking about their time off, including family functions, new jobs, new loves & new year’s resolutions. Of course, it wouldn’t be They Said without a little Charger chat, Gaga gab or differences of opinions on everything from marriage to manscaping. This week, we welcomed new Producer Louis who’s taking over for Producer Kurt on They Said, so he can dedicate 100% to wrangling Aaron & Ophelia. And, we’re on a quest to find our new lesbian co-host. If you think you’ve got what it takes to be a part of the panel, email Aaron “why you want to participate.” Starting February 6, potential co-hosts will test their cajones LIVE during the webcast. After we’ve had each interested lesbian on-air, we’ll let you, our viewers, choose the one you’d most like to see join the cast! So, remember to watch HSSS.tv and vote! Read More
