Who is Orville Peck and why should you care? he's a singer in the spirit of 50's and 60's American country music. he's masked, he's gay, and his voice can melt butter. he's touring this year and is skipping over Texas completely. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/paulnow/support

banning books, drag, trans, and women's rights is only the beginning. in the fall Chaplins will be allowed into your schools and have alone time with your children. they will not be trained, or have any type of certification. there's so much talk about indoctrination, but not towards the actual people doing it. it's time to look around and ask yourself if this is what you picture for America. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/paulnow/support

another mass killing by a far right white supremacist, this time in Colorado, a mass killing at a Walmart break room. The holiday season is among us and so are the haters. these people will not stop till they have taken the joy out of everything that fear and hate.

from woman's rights to guns in class rooms, Texas chose to stick to what they know - nothing. today will be will the same as yesterday. and tomorrow will be the same as today. as a country, most of the far right rejects were outvoted and democracy lives to see another day. the democrats have two years to prove what will happen if we give power to the far right. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/support

what is the state of America? will we continue to have open and free elections or will the Republican Party, controlled by cooperate interests, finally win? As a nation we are so quick to determine the fall of democratic governments all of the world, but when it comes to our own, we are paralyzed. we have a two system party where the other believes in conspiracies. a country can't survive if half the nation thinks jfk jr is still alive. as if the most liberal democrat to hold office would have any affiliation with these folks. they literally tried to turn democracy pass tense. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/support

History doesn't forget. people forget, which is why we leave records. we have books, audio, video. what's happening in texas is what happened in failed states throughout history. the people in charge see the end times and do everything they can to hold on to power. it's always a sad and fleeting way to exit, but time and time again, the only way the powerful know. it never works. American history shows the power of people. when people rise up things change. half of this country is sleeping and we might finally bend the curve and end up in some dystopian form of governance. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/support

Women across Texas woke up in a paradox of what the American Constitution stands for and what a handful of old white men want. Every women you know now has less rights than you. They no longer have control over their body, or as the right wing in this country calls it, a vessel. If this law isn't struck down, we are on a dark path to absolute rule. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paulnow/support

One year into this pandemic - are we the same people we were? Meghan and Harry - who's gonna have the last laugh, the monarchy or the exiles? the monarchy has a 1200 year history, little harry's only been around a couple decades. you decide. Abbott Monarchy - he would love to think he has that type of authority. RIP Texas, Ann Richards needs to put this tool back in the shed. Imagine what it would have been like during the deep freeze if we had her at the helm. I didn't even live in Texas then but I know all about her. She'd never put texans in harms way the way this man-child does. We're getting closer to the end of the tunnel. we are near the end of the worst year in generations. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paul-sears/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/paul-sears/support

how did Texas freeze over? how did Teddy Cruz run off to Mexico as soon as he felt. chill? we need answers, and this podcast has none, but I have plenty of hate for him and abbott, so if you like that kind of stuff I'm here for you. 

Britney was in court this week about her conservatorship. things may finally be moving in the right direction. Framing Britney debuted on Hulu last Friday and it has a bit of new information we didn't know, ie-Justin is a pos. A little history lesson on the media in the late 90's early aughts, they were just trying to make a buck at any cost. And they hurt many on the way.  ps -  Happy V-day boys and girls!!

Texas was it's own thing, for a minute, made a flag, made a pledge, then fucked up. asked big daddy for help. now we part of the usa. big daddy said you can't leave, baby gurl. so Texas said we'll be the unbaptized child   greg abbott, teddy cruz - why these people still running the government?  I bought a new iPhone - didn't even get to mention it in my haste for Texan politicians 

Marie-Antoinette got her head cut off, the French monarch was torn down for less then what we put up with in the US.  late stage capitalism will be the death of this nation. 

gays over covid, guys still living secret gay lives, Biden wears a Rolex 

America's brand is tarnished, are we to become like airwalk® and fade into obscurity? Or will we be reborn in the way vans® rebuilt their vision. 

A reading of Twas the night before Christmas by me. My holiday message to you.  Happy Holidays folks, stay safe and stay healthy, see you next year!!

My 7 favorite holiday movies, the fucktards of texas suing other states, the AG being investigated by the FBI, another day in a GOP run Texas. 

the drum beat beats on, and we wait. we wait for tomorrow, when it'll be better than today. we are told this time and time again. but does it get better? ask the people in bread lines if this is the America they want. 

Who's out living their best holiday lives and who's in staying safe? food banks, covid, so much to be thankful for this year, am I right!? 

A new President and a new day for America. President-elect Joe Biden will take the reins and lead us out of this tumultuous period of American life. I may have bought a thing.  There is lots of noise happening in government, and it's going to be more ramped up till the Georgia election in January but stay focused, we will get through this.  A little story of my personal relationship to Biden's hometown of Scranton 

Three days after Halloween we can end the horror we have been living through these past four years.  Instead of candy this Halloween, the Administration is handing out the ronas. 

it's time to talk about the purple elephant wearing his tennis shoes, who parades around with nothing but those shoes, and cares little for the visual you'll receive.  the president of America was diagnosed with the same virus he played down for all the months, the same virus that Americans were dying from in the thousands every day.  in his words, it hardly affects anyone, and it is what it is.  lets focus on some self care during this dumpster fire of an administration. what ever it is that you love, do it. lets move past this failure of a man and a presidency and move this country to a place of balance.   

we stan janet, but this is not about her. she's good. it's the rest of us I'm worried about. lets focus on our communities and reshape. if the fish rots from the top down, lets reverse it. 

DFW restaurant week is in effect, trump hates our military, GOP is silent again, Where are the adults? 

Since these are not normal times I don't get a proper birthday for myself, the general election is coming up. rona and weather updates 

we're choosing a freedom. we're choosing America. if we can't get our voices heard threw democratic means, we will take to the streets. 

as the election looms it's going to get ugly. immigration nation on netflix and more ranting and raving

the ghost of 2015 wears on my dreamless nights. the nightmare of national news allowing this to happen, it was a good run though  

Texas is a hotbed so yes karen, even you need to wear a mask, young folks are spreading the virus, says the governor that did nothing to stop the raging spread, deaths are piling up around you but go to the gym and work out, please. 

lets look at the roots of pride and get back to what it actually means (hint, it's not a cooperate float in a parade) BLM has shown white America that protests can change policy. as queer people we already knew this, but it has been forgotten. the last 50 years homosexual went from being an illness to the supreme court allowing same sex couples to marry. if anyone can carry a message of change it is us. there are communities out there that aren't as loud and don't get on the news. it's time to take our gay activism and start making this place better for everyone.  

when everything seems dismal, what do you do? asking for a friend. juneteenth, Abbott, and everything that's wrong with today.  wear a mask

Along with many cities throughout the country, Dallas took part in protesting the murder of George Floyd. 

lifting the stay at home, crime rates in dallas highest among the highest in the state. 

social calendars vs social distancing, is dallas ready to fling the doors open, probably not, but who cares! your health < profit.  

Texas is open for business, but are the retailers? lets watch and see how this goes. 

life is coming out of hibernation, whethe good or bad, certain bad actors will be bad actors when the lives of millions are on the line.
