    The Judge and JD Show - Texas Music Legends Bob Livingston & Mike Blakely + Homecoming Night

    This is one of those episodes where you clear your schedule and sit down properly. Judge and JD welcome two of the most decorated figures in Texas music and literature, Bob Livingston, pioneering Texas singer-songwriter and founding member of the legendary Lost Gonzo Band, a group that helped shape the sound of progressive country in the 1970s alongside artists like Jerry Jeff Walker, Michael Martin Murphey, and Ray Wylie Hubbard, and Mike Blakely, singer-songwriter and novelist who has released 14 solo albums and published 19 books with major New York City publishers, with songs recorded by Alan Jackson, Gary P. Nunn, Flaco Jimenez, Raul Malo, and more. Bob Livingston has performed in more than 25 countries as a cultural ambassador for the US State Department and released his long-awaited memoir Gypsy Alibi: A Gonzo Memoir through Texas Tech University Press, a candid and colorful look into the untamed world of Texas music, loaded with never-before-told tales from his years on the road, in the studio, and across the globe. Mike Blakely grew up working on a family ranch in Texas, served in the United States Air Force, and went on to win the Spur Award for Best Western Novel. Two of his novels were co-written with Willie Nelson and Kenny Rogers. He lives on his horse ranch near Marble Falls, Texas, right in the heart of the Hill Country.Together, Bob and Mike sit down with Judge and JD for a conversation about five decades of Texas music, the stories behind the songs, the books behind the legends, and what keeps two of the most prolific artists in Texas still showing up every day.

    The WallBuilders Show - Economic Gains And Policy Wins You Probably Missed

    Median household income hits a 58-year high and child poverty hits a record low, yet most people never hear the numbers. We start with that disconnect and talk honestly about why personal financial pain can still be real even when national data shows improvement, and how voters should weigh both lived experience and hard statistics when the economy dominates election season. From there, we move into big policy developments that tie directly to immigration enforcement and government spending. We break down the DOJ’s shift on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families reporting, why states may now face new obligations, and what supporters see as a commonsense transparency move to protect taxpayer dollars and reinforce border law. We also look at ICE arrests staying near record highs and what changes when local law enforcement is allowed to cooperate more directly. We then tackle media accountability and the growing use of lawsuits as a weapon in politics. Even when cases lose, we discuss why a public figure might keep filing, what “lawfare” does to public trust, and how the high defamation standard for public figures shapes the press landscape. Finally, we share two education stories that surprised even us, including a New York ruling on pride flags in classrooms and a Tennessee teacher who pushed back on reading same-sex marriage books to first graders. If you care about faith and culture, constitutional limits, public school battles, and election consequences, this conversation connects the dots.

    The WallBuilders Show - From Shy To Bold Through Christian Leadership Training

    Something shifts when you stop waiting to feel ready and start training to become ready. We sit down with Zach, Hannah, and Bella, Patriot Academy Institute grads, and talk about the moments that turned timid students into clear, courageous communicators. One story starts with simply watching another student go from shy to fully confident at the mic and realizing, “I want that.” That desire becomes a roadmap for growth: get in the room, take the risk, and let repetition do its work. We dig into why Leadership Congress style training works so quickly. It is designed to be challenging, with real opportunities to fail, recover, and try again, which builds public speaking confidence, communication skills, and leadership maturity. Along the way we touch on apologetics, discipleship, and the kind of Christian leadership that can engage culture without losing joy. If you care about faith and culture, biblical worldview, constitutional education, or simply learning to articulate what you believe with calm courage, you will hear practical insights you can apply immediately. Then the conversation goes deeper: what do you do when your biggest dream is still in the future? Hannah shares how mentorship reframed her view of motherhood and purpose, not as an “until” mindset, but as a call to serve now with open hands. We talk about joy in the mundane, gratitude, and why the small routines of life are not worthless, they are formative. Zach brings in G K Chesterton on holy monotony, plus a memorable line about treating every inconvenience as a miniature dragon you can make your pet. If you know a young person who feels stuck, bored, or unsure of direction, share this and start a conversation. Subscribe for more, leave a review, and tell us: what challenge do you need to say yes to next? Support the show
