Backpacking America

I am joined by ex-Liberal, Comedian, Radio Host and Editorialist Kevin Downey Jr! We discuss why we both left the left wing political sphere and checked out. We also discussed how politics has shifted, pushing people into different areas of the political spectrum they never thought they would be in.

New York city Mayor Eric Adams has went from being a supporter of the cities efforts to maintain its Sanctuary City status, to being totally against it. This change of heart represents many municipalities labeled as sanctuaries in the aftermath of Texas and Florida sending illegal immigrants to Sanctuary Cities and States around the country, most notably New York and California.

NY Sector is a Long Island based rapper that has centered the focus of his upcoming album "5 Years Later" on rebuilding his life from a troubled past.

We also talk about the differences between independent music and mainstream music. Primarily the ability to create freely when artists are not at the mercy of large corporations to push a brand, style or viewpoint.

The amount of garbage related to Adam22 and his "wife" Lena the Plug has irritated me enough to make this podcast. Marriage and committed relationships are a sacred thing.

While I understand the difference between monogamy (one partner) or polygamy (multiple partners) what Adam and Lena are doing is insane. Allowing your spouse to have sex with someone outside of your married partner(s), film said interaction and then promote it and post it for all to see for money no less is gross, irresponsible and immoral.

Tiktok is certainly a Chinese spying app. It can also be a great place to learn about the harsh realities concerning kidnappings, cryptids and the paranormal. I recall some personal experiences and share experiences others have posted ontiktok and around the internet.

I also give a brief explanation as to what cryptids really are, which are Native Americans with shamanic powers who decide to be spiritual hit men. What most people see in the woods are paranormal entities, not cryptids.

Rena Wilhelm is by no means a skateboarder. But when she heard an 11 year old boy wanted to fix the crumbling skatepark in Greenport, NY she answered the call.

She organized a nonprofit and a multitude of events to gather donations to give children and amateur skaters a safe place to practice skateboarding, scootering, BMX and rollerblading.

So far her nonprofit has collected $50,000 of their $100,000 goal to resurface and rebuild the park. While many skaters can remember middle age and elderly people chasing them away from spots or hurling insults, Greenport's residents and government want to help skaters find a safe place to skate and have become included in the tight nit skating community.

Check out Greenport Skatepark's nonprofit website and Instagram to keep up to date with all the events and fundraising goals!
