Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Episode 271!  My, oh, my!  The traditional Fall premiere schedule seems to be quite a different than it used to be.  Streamers continue to inspire, wow, and release on a much different schedule than traditional network television. But following the Emmy awards in September, TV is the focus for most entertainment until the late Fall/ holiday onslaught of films start hitting theaters. Last week the Grey Lady (New York Times), published a list of the top 100 tv series from this century (so far).  There were some surprises, some expecteds, and some downright shocking entries.  The list was compiled from a broadbase of folks both in front of the camera, behind the camera, and other industry professionals (500 total people).  This week Mark & Casey are discussing the top 20 and what was missing, in this week's Mid-Section. First thought, kicking off this week's episode, The Boys are hitting up the Tea Party.  Casey is trying it now that he joined the gym and then he is spilling the tea on HYROX and what happened at the World Championships causing quite a commotion.  And then it's recommendation time!  Casey has a movie on his list to recommend to you and Mark's touting a new singer/songwriter he recently saw and learned of. Trash Talk topics this week include Colonel Sarah Sanders (Huckabee Sanders) is getting heat from racists, The eyebrows had to check someone during a witchhunt hearing with her receipts, and why is the Mayor of a city in the Netherlands needing to "clear [his] good name"?  Oh this one is a good time (yep, a goodie)!  So getcha a fresh diaper on, pour yourself a glass of delicious late summer/ early fall flavored port vintage, and pull up a seat to the table with GBFFs, because it's time to paint! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!

Send us Fan Mail Welcome to Episode 263!  It's been a talking point for over 6 years at this point and what some refer to as "The Big Lie".  The rhetoric is now getting more aggressive despite the same statements being repeated for a decade when discussing elections -- by one man on one side of the aisle. Of course we are referring to the Big Lie of the 2020 election.  Within the last week Dumpy Don took to the podium in a primetime address and spouted lies, misrepresentation, and released documents proving there was no actual election fraud evidence and in fact, evidence was presented Russian interference and worked to re-elect Dumpy Don.  The Boys are breaking it down for you, giving you talking points, and the true tea. Kicking things off is the Tea Party this week with a caller voice memo to discuss multi-season television shows and the latest on the sudden tubbing of Lady G.

And hint: this story is a perfect lead in for the Midsection! Trash Talk topics this week cover Roseanne's threat to leave California, how is it possible Spencer Pratt may have a legitimate shot at becoming Mayor of Los Angeles, and closing things out-- apparently the $1.7 billion dollar slush fun isn't enough for Dump '47, now the Orange Thief in charge is trying to make sure he never has to pay taxes despite the hundreds of billions he made since getting back into the White House. Oh, and yes, there's recommendations too!  This one chocked full with topical discussion, hot tea, hilarity, and even some discourse.  So grab a full glass of your tasty port vintage of choice, check your diaper and getcha a fresh one, and pull up a seat at the table with your GBFFs to talk sh*t.

Kicking things off this week in the Tea Party, Casey is spilling his tea on the celeb who recently brought the chaos at her dinner out and she doesn't seem to be doing well. And Mark is spilling all the tea on the recent developments from the promised in-depth review of the Chicago Jeff Awards (theatre) practices and standards. In Trash Talk this week, it's a shorty but a goodie as The Boys are discussing a 1.5 billion dollar slush fund created for Dump allies who file a complaint they "were wronged" by Democrats, and there's a what?? a Trump phone, you say??  The wait is almost over and you won't believe what buyers will be receiving. All of this and Casey & Mark have recommendations too!  Pour yourself a full glass of colorful port vintage, won't you??  And pull up a seat next to your GBFFs and get ready... because  it's time to paint!! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-   Let The Boys of Painted Trash know your thoughts on this week's topics and episode!
