If it was up to me I would remove every male from public office for a decade & rewrite a lotta sht over in the USA. Wild? Yeah but cant be crazier than this metallic buss off sht going down now. Bombs Tanks Bullets Guns 98% is on some male dreamtoy identity insecurity sht. #FEAR

Hosted my 96th Backpack Boombox show last night on KSKQ 89.5 FM and played all Hip Hop from ‘96. I legit get choked up with the chills when I play songs from legends like Tupac, MC Lyte, Outkast, Mobb Deep, and others. Always an honor.

I had a challenging time putting together a playlist celebrating Hip Hop in 1997 to celebrate my 97th radio show. I leaned heavily on the work of @Dart_Adams for this one. festivalpeak.com/independent-as… Thank you Dart!

Many times in building playlists for Backpack Boombox I have utilized the yearly top 40 lists by Hip Hop Golden Age. Realized last night that Cis van Beers is responsible for most (if not all) of the lists. Thank you for helping me produce a better show!

Shouts out to all the radio DJs out there, especially those hosting shows during Safe Harbor when we’d usually be asleep. 📻 > 🛏

Say what you will about 2019 (a deeper spiral of hell that started in 2012 when the world ended as the Mayans predicted and now we're just in a "Lost" type simulation of some sort,) but at least I'm not being inundated with Black Eyed Peas songs all the time. #CountYourBlessings

Kinda cool that on 9/9/19 I hosted my 99th show and celebrated 1999. Having the show occur on that day was unintentional and a lot of things had to line up over the course of 2 years for that to happen. Will now be researching some numerology.9️⃣

Televangel has a new song and video out now! Watch and listen to "Framed In a Doorway." Ethereal vocals by Lotte Kestner join forces with Televangel's atmospheric, thoughtful production. @0YoungGod0 Blue Sky Black Death "Does the future promise you anything?" youtu.be/zCsGNaM8bb8

Filled with love and gratitude for my wife and for those special women that answer their very high calling to be midwives and labor & delivery nurses.
