On Thursday evening, The Young Turks partnered with The Rubin Report and YouTube to host a panel and party to celebrate their #ProudToLove campaign and the supreme court decisions on Doma and Prop 8. After introducing his panel of Jonny McGovern, Hannah Hart (My Drunk Kitchen, Hello Harto!), Whitney Mixter (The Real L Word), Alec Mapa (Showville), and Bree Essrig (BREEessrig), host Dave Rubin began the night by asking the panel how they were feeling about the striking down of Doma. Alec Mapa immediately brought up a memory of a time in which he had to go through customs with his husband and son, but the agent informed him he and his family were not allowed to pass through as a single unit. For him Doma means, “We’ll be able to go through customs like everybody else. And that seems like kind of a trivial thing, but it did matter.

"What if every single gay in all of the world got together for a day on the biggest gayest dancefloor?"
That's the question proposed by musician, stand-up comedian, and Gay Pimp Jonny McGovern in his new Pride anthem video, "The Gayest of All Time."
Wanna see a bunch of gays and girls dancing in front of a bubblegum background while Jonny sings about the gayest event of all time?
Then press play and celebrate Pride.
