I have to say, last night was one of my favorite shows in a while. It was our usual mix of politics, entertainment and fun — but we had some fascinating guests throughout the evening.

Starting off the show, we were thrilled to welcome Wisconsin Rep. Tammy Baldwin — the U.S. Congress’ only out lesbian. She has been a tireless advocate for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community and Joe and Mary talked with her about the big win last week on hate crimes, where the bill goes next and the prospects for passing a meaningful employment protection bill. Listen here.

Now that spring is in full force, it’s definitely time to start thinking about summer getaways. Where are the best parties? What’s the must-do lesbian cruise? Where are GLBT families going to be welcomed? We answered all of those questions and more with Ed Salvato — an Agenda regular and the editor of Out Traveler.

Turning back to politics, no one in the media knows presidential politics better than David Yepsen, columnist for the Des Moines Register. Joe, Mary and Yepsen chatted about the 2008 contenders from both parties and discussed the recent non-discrimination bill that passed in the Iowa Legislature. Listen to parts one and two.

If there’s one topic our community enjoys, it’s fashion. Whether you’re always wearing this season’s latest or need more than a few tips to spruce up your wardrobe, Tim Gunn of Bravo’s “Project Runway” filled us in on everything style-related. He talked about his new book, A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style, gave an inside look at the fashion industry and shared what he would tell a “Project Runway” contestant who wanted to stay in the closet.

Finally, Dan Mathews was our in-studio guest this evening. He is the senior vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and has a new book out called Committed: A Rabble-Rouser’s Memoir. In it he looks back at his life as an activist for animal rights and an out gay man. Mathews had some great stories to tell last night that you can listen to here.
