1. What did you find most challenging about living on the island?
No cell phone? No Internet? What's a gay boi to do?

2. Was there another castaway you just couldn't get along with?
I wanted to call my husband and tell him how whacky Donna was, but he had to wait until the show aired to see the lunacy.

3. What was the wackiest moment on the island?
The time when Donna said, "(fill in the blank)."

4. What would you have done with the money if you'd won?
I would have paid half to the government so they can give it to the oil industry, and with the other half I would have paid for three month's rent in a one-bedroom apartment in the West Village, where I then choke on the fumes of those 20 MPG cars the oil industry produced with their money.

5. If you were really stranded on an island, without the support crew and the other castaways, what one item would you want to have with you?
A book titled, "So all you Have to Eat is Coconuts: 101 Recipes to make Coconut Taste Like Chocolate."

6. How has the show impacted your life and career?
Other than being recognized in a gay club once or twice, and the novelty of putting it in my bio, I am back to my researching, public speaking, and teaching. My boat is on the same course as it was before, but it was a fun three-hour tour!

7. What do you think was the fatal error that cost you the game?
I had to build a raft to beat the other professor. I built the Queen Mary, when PT 142 would do.

8. Be honest, do you really like coconut cream pie?
I was banished before this delicacy, but I hate coconut anything. The best part about being on the show is that whereas before coconut just tasted awful, now it reminds me of all my fun adventures and castaway friends.

9. Besides winning, what one thing on the island do you wish you'd gotten to do before you left?
Stay.

10. Ginger or Mary Ann?
Please, I'm gay!

11. Which fellow castaway best matched their counterpart from the original series? Why?
"GOONER!" Need I say more?

12. What did you most enjoy about the experience of being on the show?
Seeing Hollywood from the inside was a valuable experience. One has a sense of the depth and complexity of the business from watching the credits at the end of a show, but seeing it from the inside is truly amazing. The number of people and the amount of money behind any given production is impressive.

13. What one thing would you like viewers to know about you that they couldn't get just from watching the show?
There was snow just on the other side of the island.

14. What are you doing now that the show is over?
Since the show I published "In the Game: Gay Athletes and the Cult of Masculinity." I am talking to the media, and giving talks on this research.

15. Which castaway (from either season) do you think will be the most fun to watch (keep track of?)?
I don't have all the cards to make a judgment yet!

16. What type of personality or character has the best opportunity to win Season Two?
If George Bush were on the Island, he would win. He can make an alliance out of countries you have never heard of. If he were on my island he would have deflected the fact that he couldn't open a coconut by talking of the scourge of gay marriage.

17. What advice would you give your Season Two counterparts?
The Millionaires have a built-in alliance. Break them up early.

18. Who do you think would win in an island face-off, the Season One or Season Two castaways?
I'd rather put that question to empirical scrutiny. So bring us back.

19. What would you like to see more of in Season Two that didn't get shown enough in Season One?
Castaways working together for the sake of the common good, rather than competing for limited recourses.

20. There is no question 20.
