The couple, who together have four children, is married inside Mayor Gavin Newsom's office, and Rosie then skewers the President and wedding-toasts the hundreds of spectators who had come to applaud the city's first "celebrity" queer marriage (with thanks to BRYAN GOEBEL, and outro music from "Wedding Bells" by TINY TIM AND THE HITS) . . . . . 4:15 SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by openly gay NEW ZEALAND CABINET MINISTER CHRIS CARTER [:15] + "TWO" 2003 Year In Review CDs promo (voiced by LUCIA CHAPPELLE) [2:05]. . . . 2:20 SEGMENT #4 - LISA JACKSON says it all with music (excerpts from "Fabulously Done" and "AOK" from her new CD "I AM AOK"), BRADY EARNHART sings from his sanctuary (the title cut and "Honey, Don't Think Your Mama Don't Know" from "MANALAPAN"), and JIM VERRAROS reveals his true self ("All I Am" and "Unsaid" from "UNSAID AND UNDERSTOOD") as we once again dip into the "AUDIOFILE" [with comments by each artist, and hosted this month by JD DOYLE & CHRISTOPHER DAVID TRENTHAM and produced with CHRIS WILSON]. . . 8:55 = artist contact info = LISA JACKSON BRADY EARNHART JIM VERRAROS 405 West 49th St. #2E 823 Moncure St. 5354 Yarmouth Ave. #26 New York, N.Y. 10019 Fredericksburg, VA 22401 Encino, CA 91316 lisalj@usa.net brady@bradyearnhart.com jimmydude01@yahoo.com www.lisajacksononline.com www.bradyearnhart.com www.jimverraros.com Closing continuity/credits. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:15 TOTAL PROGRAM TIME. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29:00 ----------------------------Please note-------------------------------- Anyone with questions, suggestions, or *news stories* is encouraged to email Coordinating Producer Greg Gordon at TWOradio@aol.co ----------------------------- thanks! --------------------------------- STATION PROMO COPY: ANNCR: NEXT TIME ON "THIS WAY OUT", U.S. PRESIDENT BUSH-WHACKS THE MARRIAGE EQUALITY MOVEMENT, BUT THE SAN FRANCISCO STORM MAKES ROSIE (AND KELLI) BLOOM...
