From an entire series of written interviews with Lilith Fair artists to an exclusive with The Good Wife’s Archie Panjabi, SheWired has a great year for content. We’ve covered events from Club Skirts The Dinah to Wolfe Video’s star-studded anniversary party. Here is a smattering of our favorite content – mainly video -- from the past 12 months.
January
The first of the year brought us our interviewer extraordinaire, the super-fun Rachel Paulson, who kicked off her tenure with SheWired by interviewing her sister, acclaimed actress for her work on Broadway and in television, Sarah Paulson.
Next up, Rachel interviewed the gals from The Four-Faced Liar, Marja Lewis Ryan and Emily Peck, who were just about to head to Slamdance with the film that has been a hit at festivals around the country.

March
In March celesbians extraordinaire, Cathy DeBuono and Jill Bennett, introduced an open mic night to their livestreamed show The Gloves are OFF. Yes, the shows were livestreamed but a fan of theirs recorded the episodes for posterity. Here are Cathy and Jill with their first open mic episode!

Cherry Bomb began airing with us in March but in April they aired their hilarious episode "How Gay Are You?" live from Club Skirts The Dinah. It's just a really fun episode with Gloria Bigelow, Tatum De Roeck, Dalila Ali Rajah, Nikki Caster and a live audience in the SheWired Lounge.

May was a big time for events and among one of our favorites was the We Have to Stop Now second season premiere at the LA Gay and Lesbian Center. We got some face time with We Have to Stop Now creators and stars Cathy DeBuono and Jill Bennett as well as their costar Suzanne Westenhoefer, and a few other celesbians!

Autumn brought with it our latest video show, T-Time with Tatum, hosted by Cherry Bomb's Tatum De Roeck. Tatum invites guests to her tea room for chitchat, tea and a little trivia. The show caught it's stride with the second episode when Tatum welcomed guest, designer Lauren Makk, from Trading Spaces.
October
2010 became the year of 'don't ask, don't tell' repeal, and right before things really ramped up in congress with repealing the measure, we got an interview with Dreya Weber, producer and star of the DADT-themed film festival hit A Marine Story.
