Advertise on podcast: I'm Just Tawkin

I came across an Instagram page called Explaining. This page said the things I Tawk about are true but you would think they are fake. A lite hearted subject this week. Listen to my reactions o these things.

As always I Tawk aloud about my feelings that the America I grew up idolizing for it's acceptance of everyone has become a divisive and scary place. I grew up not far from he Statue of Liberty. The universal beacon of freedom. This current version of America is not that.

A TikTok I saw asked told me the younger me would be proud of me. Well listen to this to see if I am proud of me and if they'd be too..

This year has been a challenge to say the least. Inconsistent posting and bad episodes when I did. This episode has some surprisingly good stats. Please listen to hear the unexpected and probably undeserved growth.

Since this is my first try at a video episode I thought it appropriate to reintroduce myself. If you have been listening now you get to see my face. Hope you enjoy the video version.

How me trying to rescue my neglected grass got me thinking about how I can revive things in my life. Relationships, my fitness or passions. Take a listen.

The complicated feelings of arguably the greatest wrestler of all time passing away. The conflict of his hero persona vs his racist comments 10 years to the day of his passing and his support of the president and his MAGA movement.

I once again tawk about how upsetting it is to see what this country is becoming. I have profound love for what this country says it should be. My family came here after WW11 for a better live and and the controlling party wants to turn the clock back to before that. Take a listen comment on Spotify or hit me on Instagram at Im_just_tawkin.

Listen to me Tawk about how hurt I am bout the direction of this country. this "independence day" rang hollow. I am heart broken of what is happening.

On this father's day I reflect on my job as a dad and how we need to take care of ourselves too. Too often dads press on and don't tell others their struggle. We spent time making others strong we can't let them think we are anything but. So we hold in feeling and emotions. Let it out guys.

In a country that is free and gives people a better life the government has a funny way of showing it. The military style raids on stores, court houses and elementary schools is Un-American. Rather than a coordinated process to find the bad guys ICE raids the places they least likely to be. Make it make sense.

I am a Roma Catholic by birth. While I'm not a good practicing one, Pope Leo IV is my spiritual leader. He wants the Church to be inclusive and I couldn't be happier or proud to be a Catholic. Take a listen.

I went back home to NY and made a stop in PA. I try to Tawk about how different it is.

If you were to strip down the story of the resurrection you would find it has a simple message. A message of falling and getting back up. A message about Never Giving Up!

As I have tried to get my over grown trees trimmed I was left with piles of branches and limbs that will not fit in one green waste bin. So my mind goes to how can I consolidate and create a better yield with what I have. This starts the thoughts for this episode.
