Cincinnati Pride -- a success!

Oh my gosh, you guys.. seriously. Cincinnati Pride was SO amazing! I absolutely fell in love with the city and the people. Our booth was packed pretty much the entire time, people were very talkative, and the vender next to us kept supplying us with free water the entire event! We were even able to see the parade.. which NEVER happens when we go to pride.

Cincinnati, I want to say thank you for all of your awesomeness. I really hope that you tune into our station.. and please.. feel free to call into my show! I want to hear about YOUR experiences. When I left California, I always used to say that I left my heart in San Francisco.. but truly, I think I left my hearty in Cincinnati this past weekend. You all rocked.

Video for The Rainbow Delegation!

This is a video that I did for The Rainbow Delegation. We recorded it LIVE on the air last week and I think it turned out great! Tell me what you think. It's definitely motivated me to start doing more videos, especially in the studio.

This week in the Park.. I peel of Viz's face!

This week's show is all about self-image, confidence, and how to manage your self-esteem.. especially when you're out and about. Ever feel those judgmental eyes stare you down? Maybe it's not what you think! We're going to have the fabulous esthetician and educator Ruth Thue on the program who will be discussing some fabulous tips to keep your skin feeling fresh and young.. like yours truly. Wink.

ALSO! I will be giving Viz microdermabrasion live on the air! That's.. going to be interesting. Of course, you'll have to sign-up for the Q-Munnity to get the full experience, because it will be all on webcam! Don't worry.. I won't take off too much skin.

Columbus Pride '11!

Pride was AMAZING this year! I had so much fun! I was able to meet a lot of great people and it was an amazing learning experience.

We love the exposure, we love getting new listeners and fans for the station and all of its shows.

It was also a good chance for me to get some exposure for MY show, A Night in the Park (every Thursday night at 10pm EST, giggle). You were all so cute. I appreciated all of the hugs and kisses! I hope you can tune into the show and even pop into the chatroom and say haaaaaay during the broadcast!

Who's your Queen?

If you've been keeping updated on my Facebook you'd know that the Beauty Queen herself Kelsey B. will be on the show! Kelsey hails from Bakersfield, CA which isn't very far from where I'm from! I've heard her music while listening to internet radio and podcasts (big hobby of mine) and absolutely fell in love. Next thing you know.. Kelsey and I are on the phone gabbing away like giddy schoolgirls.

This is an interview you CANNOT MISS. It all goes down this coming Thursday (June 9th). Park gates open at 10pm EST and Kelsey B. will call in at 11. I'll be debuting her hot music, too.

In ode of the Beauty Queen, we'll be getting into fashion, glamor, and of course.. the many different gay subcultures and the way they perceive fashion and the stereotypes revolving around JUST that.

The Gay Community vs. Itself

Homosexuality is becoming popular, and when something becomes popular the influence spreads quickly. In this age of "being yourself" are people taking it to a totally different level? Is this affecting the gay rights movement?

A popular word to describe gay people is "pervert" -- something the gay community has been battling for years. But.. is that perception getting worse? How will we campaign for equal rights when so many view us like this? Will voters ever be swayed? It's a vicious cycle.

This is what we will be discussing tomorrow in the Park! Join me, Dmitri Lee Parker, and my two FABULOUS guests Paul and Matty from Paul and Matty in the Morning!

Plus an all new edition of Entertainment News, 10 Favorite Things, On the DL and more!

DLP

I arrived alive!

Hey all! I am here in Cleveland! I'm pretty much all settled in and I can't WAIT for the show this coming Thursday! I'm planning a great show for you all and I'll keep ya updated as things come together.

Also, I'll be LIVE in the studio on Wednesday for Edge Radio with Viz & Miss Annie! I've been a co-host for a while now, but it's mainly been through Skype. Now I'll be able to have fun with the duo in the studio!

SO MUCH is happening. I have lots of projects lined up, I'm retooling the show, and I'm trying to get a fantastic docket of guests put together.

Love you all!

DLP

An update about updates?

Hey guys! So, like.. I know I don't really "blog" anymore. I mean, I post.. but mainly just announcements. Totally my bad. I need to get back into actually BLOGGING. I've been so busy tying up loose ends here in California before I move to Cleveland this Saturday. My room feels so empty now. I was hanging out in my closet earlier.. it was the first time I've cleaned it out in so long. I never realized how big it was. ANYWAY.

So, I will definitely be blogging more. After the move things will get back to normal.. better-normal! If you listen to the show (I hope you do) you know that I was hired as the Director of Social Media for Q Nation FM. I'll also be interning and I'll have other duties while in Cleveland. This is such a great opportunity for me and hopefully for the station!

A Night in the Park is being revamped to become a studio productions. New additions to the show will include call-in guests, a toll-free number for all LISTENERS to call in, new segments and more! I'm also so happy to be an intern and co-host at Edge Radio with Viz & Miss Annie on a permanent basis.

So much is coming. The website will eventually be revamped. I am going to start a video blog.. a "behind the scenes" sort of deal. It will be available on this site and YouTube soon! Most of the fun antics on Edge Radio are IN the studio.. so you'll be able to see all the amazing footage! I'm so excited for all of this.

Stay tuned, and stay cute!

Dating Tips & Fag Hags!

This week in the Park I'll be handing out a few handy dating tips!

We'll also be launching into a discussion about finding the perfect fag hag!

I've got some amazing new tunes, remixes and mash-ups for you all.

It all happens this week at 10pm EST only on Q Nation FM! Only TWO MORE SHOWS until ANITP goes studio! The show is currently being revamped for a studio format. A Night in the Park is moving to Cleveland to broadcast out of the same studio as Edge Radio with Viz & Miss Annie, the show that I was discovered on!

Stay tuned for details!

Tonight in the Park: Tops vs. Bottoms (vs. Versatility)

Top?
Bottom?
Versatile?

Or perhaps you label yourself as a "Vers/Top" or "Vers/Bottom" .. but I hope you don't, because I think that's just stupid.

Tonight is all about the age old question for gay men.. "Top or bottom?" But the question has expanded, because so many new labels have been created by the sex-driven gay.

How does your preference effect dating? Does it change, and what happens if it does and you're in a relationship with someone stuck in their ways? I'll be discussing all this and more tonight on A Night in the Park!

Hit me up on Facebook with YOUR stories! I'll also be posting a question on my wall that I'd like ALL of my listeners to respond to during the show! Park gates open TONIGHT (4/21) at 10pm EST only on Q Nation FM!

DLP

04/07 Show: Gay, Gay, Gay!

I have been so busy recently! Things are finally calming down and getting back to normal. Problem is, I don't LIKE normal. I like chaos, new things and experiences, and I think I work better under a lot of stress and pressure. That's why on this week's all new edition of A Night in the Park, I am going to DELIVER!

The Gay Dictionary, Stereotypes, and Attraction in the Gay Community. THREE topics? You're damn right. Also all new editions of your favorite segments! Entertainment News, Precious Moments and My 10 Favorite Things. It's going to be CHAOTIC! Gates open up again this Thursday at 10pm EST/7pm PST.

This will be my first show back in California, since last week's show was a replay of my first studio show in Cleveland. I have lots to dish about regarding my trip, news about my future and the future of the show, my new responsibilities at Q Nation and more. This is a show you do NOT want to miss!

Have a story to share? Hit me up on Facebook and lemme have it!

Tonight, tomorrow, and..

I have some SERIOUS blogging to do, but all that will have to wait.. I have so much to do now that I'm back in California. It's overwhelming. HOWEVER, I still want to keep you all updated on show stuff! I am in the process of writing my awesome Cleveland blog, however.

TONIGHT I will be filling in for Miss Annie on Edge Radio again! "But Parker, you're not in Cleveland anymore! How will you do that? Will you teleport?" No! But I will be phoning in via Skype to join Viz. Fuck, I WISH I could teleport.

Also, just in case you didn't hear my show last week, this week's show will be a replay of ANITP's first studio recording (03/17). So if you missed Dr. Jallen Rix, my mother, Precious and more.. tomorrow will be your chance to hear it! Hell, even if you heard it the first time, you KNOW you want to listen again.

More blogs to come!

TONIGHT! (03/24)

Tonight will be my last show from the QNF studio here in Cleveland for a while. It saddens me knowing I'll have to return to my little hometown. It's like taking a giant leap forward, and then being pushed down the stairs. BUT! I shall return!

I have a great show lined up for you guys tonight. Matt Mazzei, the creator of Rainbow Delegation, will be joining me as a guest at 11pm EST/8pm PST. He has started an AMAZING project and I can't wait to hear his story. Like Matt, I too am from Fresno.. so this will definitely be an interesting interview.

Topics tonight include pride, growing up gay in small towns, and .. I go after the Westboro Baptist Cult yet again. I also have a new segment for you all involving my music producer Z. He'll be calling in and knowing our history, we'll definitely be.. disagreeing on a few things.

Show starts at 10pm EST as always, and like last week, we'll be going for THREE hours! I will open the phone lines so that I can hear from you guys again. I can't wait.

DLP

Thank you all SO much!

Last night's show was a HUGE SUCCESS! It was the first time doing my show in a real studio and operating equipment and it went well.. but only because I have such a great teacher! Thanks Viz! We PACKED the chatroom -- lots of cute boys on webcam! Last night I also had my VERY FIRST guest phone in. Thank you so much Dr. Jallen Rix! You were amazing.

After some interesting segments I opened the phone lines and I got a mysterious call.. it was a long lost friend of mine surprising me on the air! It was so great to hear from you again, Rachel. Sean (who is becoming quite a popular regular in the QNF chatroom) also phoned in near the end to have a talk with me. Thanks sweetie!

The highlight of the night, however, was having my mommy call in to the show. We had a great time on the air reminiscing and goofing around. My listeners loved her! We will DEFINITELY have Momma Parker back.

This was my best show to date. Thank you all so much for your continued support! There are going to be several changes to the program, and last night you got a taste of what's to come. More announcements soon! Also catch next week's special show with guest Matt Mazzei.

It's Precious, honey

Hello sweeties. How's your mother? Listen, I don't have much time, that little twink is in the bathroom. Douching I think. That's what slutty little bottom boys do right? Douche? I'm a lady so I wouldn't know. It's me, Precious Fitzgerald-Monroe, your favorite Jewish drag queen! Listen, honey, I'm doing an advice segment on this little bitch's new show and I need advice to give!

Send me a letter! Oi vey! You're probably gay, so I know you've got problems, honey. Have your letter read live on the show. What more do you want?

NEW TIME! Thursday the 10th at 10pm EST - Midnight!

Alright, guys.. as I warned, the show WILL be postponed.. but only for ONE week! I had some issues with the broadcasting software, but I got through it thanks to Viz. We're going to postpone the show.. so the debut will air on Thursday, February 10th at 10pm EST - Midnight.



Sorry for the delay!

All the recordings I got for my show are done and they sound GREAT!

I think you'll all really enjoy the segments.

Talk to you in ONE WEEK!

Fag vs. Technology

I'm having some technical issues on my end, which may affect the date of the show! I hope not, but there's a chance I may have to postpone ANITP to NEXT Thursday, the 10th, at the same time (10pm EST - Midnight).

I'll keep you all informed. Bryan Cather from Facebook said I should pass it off as a "brilliant marketing strategy." Hmm.. good idea!

Yeah, "technical issues." Mwahahaha.

No, but srsly -- technical issues have risen! Hopefully I can work through everything and we'll premiere tomorrow, but if not you'll just have a week more to build your anticipation.

Love,
DLP

You know what really Grindrs my gears?

If you're a fag (or, you know, "curious") and have an iPhone or a similar device (like yours truly) I'm sure as shit you know all about the application called Grindr. iPhones and phones like it can do anything these days, and helping you hook up is no exception. Gay men have been hooking up forever, though, so how is this ANY different? Because unlike "back in the day" you don't need to know certain gestures or the gay handkerchief code -- all you need is your phone.

When I became an iDouche I just 'had' to check out Grindr. I had heard so much about it from my friends and I wanted to see what it was all about. Also, social networking (even Grindr) is an AMAZING promotional tool. It gave me a chance to get some exposure from the locals and to whore out not myself, but my show.

I have friends who use Grindr. Some use it for sex, some use it for friends, and some use it for networking like myself. As long as you're safe and know what you're doing, then sister, go to town. Seriously. I can't judge. Do your thing, but know the risks.

Grindr, if you're not familiar, allows you to have your mobile device track where you're at. It will show the men who are closest to you.. and just how close they are. It could be miles, it could be feet. Now, this option can be disabled of course, but from my experiences on Grindr, most of the time people have it enabled. This feature HAS lead to sexual violence and it will again. It is INEVITABLE, just like sexual violence is inevitable from any other form of "hooking up." The thing about Grindr, though, is that it makes it easier for predators.

Everyone is so worried about gay teen suicide invoked by bullying. What about gay teen MURDER? Grindr is an application for adults (that's 18+ for all of you registered sex offenders) and of course that's how it should be. But, just like chatrooms and social networking sites.. the young gays always find a way to slip right in. And it isn't that difficult. I'm bringing this up because while on Grindr recently, a 16-year-old sent me a message. Now, whether or not this boy was real is up for debate, but it still REALLY concerned me.

Grindr states that they are strict about being a resource ONLY for adults (again, that's 18+ ;p) .. but this kid has ON HIS PROFILE and ON HIS HEADLINE that he's 16. Where's the moderation? What the hell is going on? Now, I know I'm an iNoob, but I'm still in shock. I had a talk with this kid.. I had to. I felt like if I didn't I would lose sleep over it. I'm not going to provide screen names and I've cleaned up some spelling errors and whatnot, but here it is:

Kid: Hey
Parker: 16? I don't wanna lecture but.. you should delete this app. This isn't what gay life is about, really. and there are some really scary guys on here Parker: Even if you don't take my advice, at least be careful.. please
Kid: I will :) I know what's out there and I know what signs to look out for. Thanks :)
Parker: That's what I thought too when I was around your age.. you'd best be careful

You know what's out there? YOU'RE 16 YEARS OLD! How could you possibly KNOW what's out there? I mean, fuck, when I was 16 I won't lie.. I did my fair share of partying, but most of that involved stealing a bottle of cheap tequila from my parents and sipping on it with a few friends outside. Oh, and you know what "signs" to look out for? You're 16, you're not that intuitive.. and plus, even if you were, how the hell can you just "tell" .. it's online! No.. not even.. it's on the phone!

When I was 16 I didn't even have a cell phone. So much has changed since then. But you know, I wonder.. if things were different, and I was 16 at this point in time with an iPhone and the Grindr application.. what would I be doing? I remember being curious at that age, but it wasn't EASY. It wasn't CONVENIENT. Now it is. You can literally hook up with a few swipes of your finger. Even if you're a minor. And trust me, there are always sick perverts who are MORE than willing to take the risk.

Listen, I know what some of you are thinking. Yes, the internet has been around for a long time and yes, it's quite easy to hook up from it.. all I'm saying is that now with applications like Grindr, it's EASIER and a minor won't HAVE to load up their PC or laptop to lurk around in the usually heavy moderated adult personals sites.. they can just slide into a private area, take out their mobile device and BAM. There's their location. There's their picture. Their personal information. There's everything he needs in order to turn his first, and maybe LAST trick.

Want to be raped, beaten senseless and tossed into a dumpster at age 16? There's an app for that.

Kesha is herpes.

AND NO, I REFUSE TO USE THE DOLLAR SIGN. DEAL WITH IT.

Alright! New blog time! Let's talk about Kesha. Now, I'm gay, so her kind of music is like.. INFUSED into me. When I hear it I get this little twitch that I just can't control. But, after a while, that twitch turns from joyful faggotry to UNADULTERATED RAGE. Her songs (even though halfway decent for clubbing) get WAY too repetitive way too quickly.

Now, I know what you're thinking. "But, all pop songs get catchy real, real fast!" -- WRONG. Even though you may get SICK of the song, you can still enjoy it later.. and get that same satisfaction you had the first time you heard it! You need to let the song sit like a fine wine.. and enjoy it later. Kesha, however, is like an $8 bottle of vodka (that'll probably be the title of her next single!) that you find at those REALLY sketchy liquor stores on "the other side" of town.

Do you have herpes yet? Well, if you do (and omg, I'm really sorry.. genuinely lol.. that must suck) I think you can relate to what I have to say next. Kesha is like a bad case of genital herpes. You can pray, you can throw a fit.. doesn't matter, you are STUCK with it. FOR LIFE.

Listen, I'm not saying I "hate" Kesha.. it's more like I despise her. I mean, I still listen to her music (you know, before the songs drive me bonkers). Why? Because it's INFECTIOUS! .. just like herpes.

Next week on Edge Radio.. ME!

Big, big, exciting news! Next Wednesday, the 19th, at 10pm EST I'll be a guest on Edge Radio with Viz & Miss Annie -- that's right, I've upgraded from my goofy call-ins to official guest status! We'll be discussing my talk show (three more weeks!) among other scandalous topics, I'm sure.


Being a part of the Q Nation family really is a blessing. It all started when I was a young gay visiting San Francisco. Evil Gene, an Edge Radio contributor and host of his own show (To Tell The Truth) introduced me to the station. Years later I started calling into Edge Radio and fell in love with Viz and Miss Annie, whom I later met in person thanks to Mike Reader (host of The Mikelive Experience).

Can't wait for the show! Hope you all can tune in. It's definitely going to be interesting. You can tune in by going to the Q Nation FM website -- click the tab at the top 'Listen Now' and then click 'Launch Player' and select your preference. In the meantime, check out the websites for Edge, Evil Gene, and Mikelive!

Fuck you, Ophiuchus.

So, apparently there is a 13th zodiac now (which I've heard isn't "new" news, but.. it's new to me). The Earth's relation to the sun has changed since the Babylonians, which, in turn, has brought us a new star sign.. Ophiuchus.

Screen names must be changed!
Personality attributes must be readjusted!
And I'm no longer a Gemini!

.. wait, what? I'm no longer a Gemini? Well, I guess I'll have to create a new spam e-mail address and a Yahoo screen name. I'm a Taurus now, see.. so I have to recreate my entire personality. My ex was a Taurus and he was a douche.. this is most displeasing.

Honestly, if you really do believe in all of this zodiac shit, I'm sure you're pulling out your hair and biting at your nails nervously. If you're like me, however, you'll ignore all this hoo-haa. I still consider myself a Gemini. GEMINI PRIDE, YO.

Yeah, yeah.. the moon's gravitational pull on Earth, the stars, blah blah blah.. when it comes down to it, I think it's just something that a bunch of people want recognition for. CONGRATULATIONS, YOU CHANGED THE ZODIAC. .. and pissed a bunch of daily horoscope readers off. Seriously. Those people must be LIVID.

In closing, I don't really believe this stuff. But honestly, I do fit most of the Gemini attributes. Oh well, guess I need to rearrange my entire personality now. Oh, and the new star sign looks just .. disturbing. He looks like he's wiping his ass with a giant snake.

Here's the "new" zodiac chart:

Capricorn: Jan. 20-Feb. 16.
Aquarius: Feb. 16-March 11.
Pisces: March 11-April 18.
Aries: April 18-May 13.
Taurus: May 13-June 21.
Gemini: June 21-July 20.
Cancer: July 20-Aug. 10.
Leo: Aug. 10-Sept. 16.
Virgo: Sept. 16-Oct. 30.
Libra: Oct. 30-Nov. 23.
Scorpio: Nov. 23-29.
Ophiuchus: Nov. 29-Dec. 17.
Sagittarius: Dec. 17-Jan. 20.

A few updates

First of all, thanks Kiel for all of your hard work keeping this blog all pretty. A few minor aesthetic changes to make the site "pop" .. we changed a few things around, updated the picture, Kiel made an awesome text graphic for the slogan. Woo.

Also, I added pages to the blog. So, now it kind of functions as a site. You can use the navigation bar up top to surf around. Find out about the show, me, view pics, check out links, and more in the future! After the show gets started I'll add information about my guests and I plan to include each show's playlist for you all, which also be on a page.

Music is such a passion of mine, and I can't wait to talk about it, but there are so many other things to discuss too. Entertainment news, original segments, and I can't wait to get a list of guests to call in! Thank you all for keeping up with me so far. We're so close.. and there's much to do.

FIrst promo poster!

What do you think? This was created for the Facebook fan page! Thanks, J!



Go ahead and 'Like' my show on Facebook! Look, I've made it so easy for you.

Black Eyed Peas: The Beginning of The E.N.D.

Have no fear, townsfolk! The Black Eyed Peas were never nearing their E.N.D., but The Beginning, apparently. This is kinda old news, considering their new album (The Beginning) dropped November 30th, 2010 with The Time (Dirty Bit) as the record's beaming sequel.. right?

It's been mixed reviews for the Peas ever since. What I'm thankful for, though, is that Fergie isn't going to be replaced with Girls Aloud alum Cheryl Cole like will.i.am hinted at a while ago. NO FEMALE ALIVE could take a piss on stage like Fergie. Especially not Cheryl Cole, she's too dainty and formal.. she'd probably use toilet paper or something. Pffft!

I wish the Peas luck.. and the way things are going now, Fergie won't have time to release another solo album! And the people applaud.

On Edge Radio tonight.. Precious!

Precious Fitzgerald-Monroe, our favorite Jewish drag queen(?), will be a guest on Edge Radio with Viz & Miss Annie TONIGHT! Head on over to Q Nation FM to listen! The show starts at 8pm EST. Precious is excited to be back into the scene, and if you remember her from her last segment on Edge Radio.. well.. she'll stop at nothing! A vicious shemale (because she had the surgery now, you know) indeed. Can Miss Annie tame her.. can "Vib" escape her evil grasp?

Today's photo shoot, yay

OH MY GOSH. The photo shoot today was absolutely amazing. I had so much fun. The photographer, one of my friends, is so talented. He's a modest guy, though. We took a few great promo pictures for the show and made magic. I really liked the shots. I'll be going over all of them (I've already started picking my favorites) and then I'm going to see if Kiel can do his thang.

We did a vintage thing. That was the theme. Kind of like.. a twisted, decrepit old park.. just like my heart! Thanks so much, J. You are the bomb diggity and then some.

Goofing around on location



I can't wait to show you guys the rest, and when the finalists are chosen.. I will post them here and on Facebook. I hope you guys can help me decide which to use for the official show shot!

Parker's Picks: BT - The Emergency [Radio Edit]

BT (Brian Wayne Transeau) is absolutely amazing. His voice is so spellbinding. This is a song that I heard on BTL (Boystown Live). According to Wikipedia, BT has a unique production technique, "stutter edit" -- which he coined himself. This really is such a great song. I know that some people aren't so fond of male vocals in trance (and yes, I consider BT trance) but even if you are one of these people, give this a shot. You'll love it.

He is not a DJ, nor does he claim to be. BT attended the Berklee College of Music. And what the grits, this bitch is in the GUINNESS FUCKING BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS.. and what for? The largest number of vocal edits in a song. WHAT? Oh, which is 6,178 edits according to Wikipedia.

Now, I prefer this particular edit. For dancing, eh.. but for listening on your destructive Turtle Beach phones.. YES. Parker picked, Parker approved.

By the way, he is SEXY. Like.. lock me in a room with this man for a few days.

Enjoy,

SURPRISE! I hate Lindsay Lohan.

I'm sick of Lindsay Lohan, like just about EVERY mentally functional person in this world. The news of her CONSTANT downfalls makes me a sad gay. Lindsay was spotted with a cocaine mustache? Oh, Lindsay is strung out on carpet cleaner this week? Or.. maybe Lindsay had a bit too much of the crack rock, and passed out outside a club, exposing her mutated fire crotch? WHO CARES. .. well, obviously I do, considering I'm blogging about it.

Lindsay has been on this downward spiral filled with drugs, shitty movies, rehab, fights, more rehab and lesbian scissoring for quite some time. It seems like after every fuck up she says (and by she I mean her PR people), "I'm optimistic about the future!" or some variation of that.

Fine, fine.. smoke your crack rock, gurgle down all that carpet cleaner you can find, but guuuuuurl, I swear, if you use ONE more Gandhi quote.. UGH! Quoting Mahatma Gandhi won't ever make you seem intelligent.. people will just think you're a douche.

Calm yourself, Dmitri, calm yourself.

And I will end this blog post with the following: ALLEGEDLY.

But, in all honesty, I really hope she hasn't considered getting fucked up on carpet cleaner. Try some Pledge first and work your way up.

Allegedly,
