Blazing The Trail

Welcome to Episode 225!  June 2025 is winding down but Pride is reaching it's peak.  This week marks many of the major USA Pride Parades and celebrations of visibility, but a reminder of what the LGBTQIA+ community has fought for as well as how and why the fight continues today.

It's also that time where Painted Trash Podcast caps off Pride Month with this year's honorees to join the PTP Trailblazers.  This week, Mark & Casey are giving you their choices for this year's induction to join the ranks of Painted Trash Podcast Trailblazers.  Who made the list, this year? (Hint: it's the second annual, however there was a year skipped). You gotta listen to find out!

Did you get your Real-ID yet?? In this week's Trash Pick-Up, The Boys are discussing the deep trauma of the DMV experience-- especially those horrific photos we are all stuck with.  Have you heard about the major data breach that has left billions of accounts at risk? And then, it's on to miscreants. 

Trash Talk this week is covering a lot of ground including Karen Read, Razor Blade Throats, No Kings and failed birthday parade, losing more than $1,000,000 outta your checking account, continuing the attacks on the 2SLGBTQIA+ community throughout Pride Month, and the true price of a Disney themed brunch.

All of this and recommendations too??  PHEW!  These Boys are getting you together to go into the height of Pride!  So put on your Pride best, getcha a delicious port vintage treat, and pull up a stool to the table to join your GBFFs.  It's time to paint! Happy Pride!!
