Brutally Honest - LIVE! - 04/01/13 Show Notes

Monday's show will be a VERY IMPORTANT one, and for many reasons.

FIRST is because April 1st marks SEVENTEEN YEARS of Brutally Honest commentary.  Seventeen years of weekly articles, which led to the original "Brutally Honest - LIVE" broadcast, which led to the audio rants, which led to "Brutally Honest on ShockNet Radio", which led to the resurrected "Brutally Honest - LIVE" on ShockNet Radio. All of which would not be possible if I didn't start doing a weekly online column way back when.

SECOND, because I get to promote the release of a VERY SPECIAL comic issue that will deal with a serious social issue.

And THIRD, because there is something VERY IMPORTANT that will be announced. I've been part of this for a while and I've been chomping at the bit to be able to tell people what we are working on, but I can't tell you until the show. And once I announce it, I certainly will welcome your feedback on it.

THIS IS NOT A JOKE!  THIS IS THE SHOW YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO!!!

Be sure to tune in THIS MONDAY (04/01), right here on ShockNet Radio at 8pm Eastern (7pm Central and 5pm Pacific) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under the "Classic Rock" category.

And don't forget that I'll be in the "BH-LIVE" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show to discuss the subject LIVE, and I'll be taking your calls toll-free in the U.S. and Canada at 866-400-6684

Oh, and by the way, if you like what you hear, if you enjoy the conversations and rants, then tell your friends about the show and have them tune in as well!

When the truth is not enough, it's time for... BRUTALLY HONEST - LIVE!

Brutally Honest - LIVE! - 03/25/13 Show Notes

So... I spent the weekend thinking about what the discussion topic should be for this week's show, and I had TWO subject really dominate my mind.

The FIRST is the "Cult of the Athlete". This whole thing with the Ohio so-called "Sports HE-ROES" that were convicted of raping a 16-year older and the school system and the community that pretty much tried to sweep it under the rug because they worship the supposedly "promising athletes". As I mentioned in last week's show, this is really nothing new. We saw this with Jerry Sandusky and how he was able to get away with his actions for so long. But I want to know what you think on the subject!

The SECOND subject is what's going on with Cyprus and the banks. That little island nation is on the supposed verge of insolvency and their "solution" is to tax deposits, which caused the banks to close in fear that ordinary people would pull their money out. Is it right? Who is REALLY behind the "solution"? And are you afraid it could be done here? I want to know what you think!

And I URGE you when you call in that you chose just ONE subject. Please don't try to cover both. It's a toll-free number, so it's on OUR dime, okay?

So tune in THIS MONDAY (03/25), right here on ShockNet Radio at 8pm Eastern (7pm Central and 5pm Pacific) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under the "Classic Rock" category.

And don't forget that I'll be in the "BH-LIVE" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show to discuss the subject LIVE, and I'll be taking your calls toll-free in the U.S. and Canada at 866-400-6684

Brutally Honest - LIVE! - 03/11/13 Show Notes

I really hate it when someone is propped up as being an idol when they really shouldn't be.

Tim Tebow quickly comes to mind. The media decided he should be this "superstar" when really he wasn't, and then the religious groups joined in and treated him as a "martyr" when anyone questioned his new "idol" status.

Thankfully he's more or less neutralized as a phony idol, but that hasn't stopped people from propping up other so-called "idols".

From the left we have the recently-deceased Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez, now propped up as a phony saint simply by dying. 

And from the right we have Senator Rand Paul, for staging a 13-hour traditional filibuster over the confirmation of a new CIA Director over the White House policy on drones, now being propped up as an "idol" even by some libertarians, even though he has previously trashed libertarians for what they believe in.

But should they really be given the "idol" treatment? You'll hear what I have to say, then I want to know what you the Internet listeners think!  CALL IN DURING THE SHOW!

So tune in THIS MONDAY (03/11), right here on ShockNet Radio at 8pm Eastern (7pm Central and 5pm Pacific) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under the "Classic Rock" category.

Brutally Honest - LIVE! - 03/04/13 Show Notes

Remember the song "Blame Canada"?

Hey, Hollywood did.  It even got nominated for an Academy Award!

The song showed how "Canada" was to blame for all of the ills that plagued the world of "South Park", with the key point being "We must blame them and cause a fuss before somebody thinks of blaming us!"

Well substitute a country for a president and you have to wonder if the same is being done with our current President.

Our discussion topic for this Monday: Is it right to Blame Obama for everything going wrong?  And if not, ARE there things that he should be rightly blamed FOR?

I want to know what you think on this!  Be prepared to sound off both in our chat room and on our TOLL-FREE 800-number!

So tune in THIS MONDAY (03/04), right here on ShockNet Radio at 8pm Eastern (7pm Central and 5pm Pacific) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under the "Classic Rock" category.

And don't forget that I'll be in the "BH-LIVE" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show to discuss the subject LIVE!

Oh, and by the way, if you like what you hear, if you enjoy the conversations and rants, could you do me a favor and tell your friends about it?  Maybe get them to tune in as well?
