The Renegade Writer's Mouthy Musings

Good afternoon, Substack! Happy Friday, and welcome to the weekend. I hope y’all have some kickass, fun plans today. Whether it’s something chill or you’re having an adventure, may it bring you happiness and some rest. We’re heading to the airport shortly to take a nice long weekend trip to Phoenix. My Bride bought us tickets to see an NBA game down there and I added a second game to the itinerary...

Today, I’m thinking about progress. The progress I’ve made in almost 3 years of writing is astounding to me. I knew early on in the process that I wanted to be the biggest writer in the world. And I believed that it could be done. So I showed up daily, put the hours in and I’ve worked hard to build a following of over 75,000 people between the platforms I use. You can do it, too. If you have belie...

Good afternoon, Everyone! Today’s mini-podcast addresses the topic of bullies. We encounter many types in life. Especially from people hiding behind screens. Don’t give them your attention and don’t let them affect your mental health. It’s not worthwhile. I’m headed to the DMV today and hopefully, I won’t have to deal with bullies there or anywhere else. I’ll be back a little later and I’ll post a...

Hey Y’all! While driving home from the gym, I was listening to ABBA in my big pickup with the wind blowing my hair all over. It made me laugh, thinking about stereotypes and what people in my conservative red state might think about it. Spoiler alert: I don’t give a fuck what they think. I do what I want. Anyway, enjoy today’s mini-podcast. I enjoy making these for you. I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I D...

Hey Everyone! I just got back from the gym for the first time since turning 50, and let me tell you all about it. It’s certainly not the same as working out in my 20s and 30s. But at least I gave it a go. &:^) Get full access to You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy at themouthyrenegadewriter.substack.com/subscribe

Hey Everyone! Today’s mini-podcast was recorded earlier than usual before the coffee even fully kicked in. I headed out with my daughter this morning to take wildlife photos while she did a project with her biology club. It was great to get out in nature and take some cool photos, it had been a while. I keep so busy with my writing and podcasting, that photography often takes a back seat. But toda...

It’s Saturday morning, and I’m contemplating a new laptop. Or at least a keyboard repair. Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory and I both have strong opinions about replacing technology. We both think having to do that sucks. Here’s why getting a new laptop or phone pisses me off. Perhaps you feel the same way. Let us know in the comments section how you feel about it. &:^) Get full access to You Have...

Hey Y’all! Pardon my slight wine-buzz on this one, but I started my meal prep around 1 PM today for shrimp and beef fajitas. Still, I feel that this mini-podcast is tasty and entertaining, both. Mooch didn’t imbibe any of this cabernet, but at least it makes for a great photo-op. Happy Friday to you all, and thank you so much for tuning in. These are sure fun to record for you! &:^) Get full acces...

Death screws with me. It’s the one thing I worry about on a semi-regular basis. As a man with no belief in an afterlife, it can be shitty to think about the end. Learning of One Direction’s Liam Payne’s sudden untimely death at age 31, I’m greatly saddened. Today’s mini-podcast focuses on how I’ve felt over the years about death. Losing my religion and growing older hasn’t helped me accept it any...

I saw that we had rain coming within half an hour, so I hauled ass to take Mooch on her walk. Then I came home and decided to record this mini-podcast about why I prefer rainy weather over sunny weather. Thank you for listening to The Renegade Writer’s Mouth Musings. I hope you enjoy it! &:^) Get full access to You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy at themouthyrenegadewriter.substack.com/subscribe

Hey Y’all! I decided to try something new in between our full-length episodes of the “You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy” podcast. Since we’re finding that our episodes are taking a little longer to record, produce, and edit, I thought I’d record a shorter, mini-podcast with my thoughts about whatever I’m thinking about on any given day. In today’s pilot episode, I talk about something really fun...

Hey Y’all! Here’s the second episode of our “You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy Podcast”. K.R. Byers and I are bringing you a weekly podcast discussing topics such as politics, religion, relationships, mental health, and other interesting things. And other bullshit that comes to mind whenever we think of it. We do it with snark, a sense of humor, and a few “fucks” thrown in there. Please download...

Hey Y’all! I just wanted to drop our new pilot episode of our “You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy Podcast” for you. K.R. Byers and I will be bringing you a weekly podcast talking about topics such as politics, religion, relationships, mental health, and all sorts of other interesting things. And we’ll do it with snark, a sense of humor, and a few “fucks” thrown in there. So please download and en...

This is a short little humor piece I wrote recently, and I’m using the audio recording of it to test this podcast option out. I hope you all enjoy it. If it goes well, I may branch out into longer podcasts where I discuss politics, religion, mental health topics, and other interesting things. Thank you for checking it out! &:^) Get full access to You Have the Right to Remain Mouthy at themouthyren...
