Send us a textWelcome to Episode 239! We all love our stories.  You know the ones -- playing out on tv series often called soap operas.  There are not many of those left at this point on "regular" television.  It seems real life has enough drama of it's own and reality TV has replaced All My Children, One Life To Live, Another World, and others. These were like Dynasty (pun intended) similar to the idea of a franchise. One franchise which seems to have carried on the torch of soap operas best are The Real Housewives.Be it New York, Miami, Potomac, Beverly Hills, Atlanta, Salt Lake City... the women and their lovers, friends, and husbands, spill tea, deliver smackdowns, or have an all out brawl. And sometimes those lives get a bit messy. This week Casey is sharing with you the stories of just some of the legal issues in The Housewives universe and The Boys discuss the similarities and the patterns among the women. It's reality television and it shows us how messy "friendships" and lives can get. Success and failure playing out on a very public stage. There's thoughts and tea. And The Boys have got 'em.Kicking off this week, The Boys are discussing men's hygiene and grooming practices and telling the tales from a recent dinner party in celebration of an engagement which sparks a discussion on the future of gay marriage.Trash Talk this week start with a tribute to actress Diane Ladd, government shutdown fall out, and the Grammy's are showing their ass!This week, the tea is pop culture and it's piping hot!  So pour yourself a nice fall fashioned port vintage, put on a nice fresh diaper, and pull up a seat next to your GBFFs for a topical convo. It's time to paint!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!

The outrage was swift and intense -- as it should be--  but does it all mean and what should we be expecting moving forward?  These Boys have thoughts.Kicking things off though, Casey & Mark are talking BB27 as the last weeks are upon us which leads to Casey sharing about his participation in local version of The Challenge.  Then Mark is sharing about his latest observation and experience as a CTA trainer rider.Trash Talk topics include tea from a former Broadway cast member of a long running Broadway show which celebrated a milestone recently, a Fox New host advocates for murdering homeless people, and reviewing a study on kinks.Its one for the books this week.  So getcha a full glass of a nice port vintage (maybe a spritzer this week?) and pull up a nice seat to the table to join your GBFFs for a catch up and chat.  It's time to paint!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!

Send us a textWelcome to Episode 234!  What a week, amiright??  The gun violence seems to be exploding across the United States with at least 4 known school shooting in the last week or so.  And those are just the schools. There have been countless targeted gun shootings all over the country in the last week.  One of which seems to be dominating the airways.Last week, far right conservative political activist and influencer, Charlie Kirk, was tragically gunned down and killed on a college campus at a stop on his "The American Comeback" tour in Utah.  Specifics have been slowly shared out about the details surrounding suspect, motive, condition, etc. but the fallout has been more than dominating the airwaves. This is not the first act of political violence to take place in the last 6 months, but it seems to have struck a chord with so many.  In this week's Mid-Section, Casey & Mark are discussing what we know so far of the murder, the major punditry points, and the legacy left by the proud white nationalist.Kicking things off this week, The Boys are discussing the latest aches, pains, trials and tribulations with the experience of aging as a gay man.  It certainly is ridiculous to be discussing at their age!  This on the heels of someone's birthday!  Mark & Casey are giving you the rundown of a day on the town to celebrate, Casey!Trash Talk topics this week include a deep read on The House floor by Rep. Sarah Jacobs to the most bigoted members of Congress, a man takes matters into his own hands when someone forgets some party favors for the kickoff of NFL season, Bad Bunny flips the bird to ICE, and a man has been ticketed for needing a Slurpee....badly.And The Boys have got recommendations for you to!  This one's got heft (and we ain't talking about their weight) with some levity of humor to balance. So pour yourself a balance bottle of port vintage and pull up a seat to the table in the library to join your GBFFs as they kiki about this last week.  Get ready, Kids, it's time to paint=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!
