America’s Rare Earths: Rebuild the Mine-to-Magnet Chain

America’s Manhattan Project moment is here: rebuild mine-to-magnet at home or keep renting sovereignty from Beijing. CEO Joshua Ballard of USA Rare Earth lays out China’s magnet chokehold, the U.S. plan (Stillwater, OK + Round Top, TX), and the policies to win—cleaner, faster, American. Sovereignty over dependency. #NextStepsShow

Harden the Targets: Faith, Fraud, and Fighting DEI

Guest host Luis Martinez, filling in for Peter Vazquez: Soft targets invite predators.
After Minneapolis, we say what others won’t: harden schools and churches now. We expose the double standard on mortgages (allegations re: Fed Gov. Lisa Cook), separate real Affirmative Action from DEI coercion, and call for righteous anger that restores justice—not theater. Faith, merit, duty. #NextStepsShow

Builders, Not Beggars: Hispanic Entrepreneurship Unleashed

Hispanic entrepreneurs aren’t asking for permission—they’re building.
On The Next Steps Show, RHBA Chair Orlando Rivera and Diana Kleps-Perez (founder of Weprogy and Kindred Dynamics) torch the myths: faster growth, real jobs, local revenue, and opening doors through MWBE—without the handout mindset.

Managed, Not Led: The Truth Behind Progressive Control

Sanctuary cities sold as “compassion.” Equity rebranded as control. Freedom bartered away for rhetoric. On today’s Next Steps Show, Peter Vazquez cuts through the noise—calling out guilty white liberal busybodies, corrupt policies driving costs through the roof, and the scam of subsidies that keep black and brown America “managed” instead of free. From Rochester streets to Washington handouts, from Israel to your own wallet, the Van-bōōl-zal-ness Crisis is here.

Peter Vazquez Unfiltered: God, Country, and the Fight They Don’t Want You to Win

Peter Vazquez, host of The Next Steps Show, joins Just An Old Guy With A Mic for a no-holds-barred conversation that punches through the noise and gets to the rot beneath the surface of American life.
In a world where public officials hide behind buzzwords and bureaucrats choke progress with paperwork, Vazquez speaks plainly about what’s broken and who’s benefiting from the decay.
From the failures of housing policy and tax tyranny, to the cowardice of so-called leaders and the cultural con that’s dividing America by race, Peter lays bare the truth that polite society avoids. He doesn’t speak from theory, he speaks from lived service, both on the battlefield and in the trenches of local leadership.
This isn’t some polished soundbite. It’s a wake-up call.
If you’ve felt the weight of a system rigged against working families, if you’ve seen the cost of silence, or if you’re just tired of being told to sit down and take it this episode is for you.

GOA’s Mark Jones: Defending the Second Amendment from the Left

They’re not coming for your guns. They’re coming for your rights—and the guns are just in the way.
On this powerful episode of The Next Steps Show, GOA National Director Mark Jones joins the fight against America’s ideological decay. From Hawaii’s shady gun bans to New York’s Safe Act circus, we expose the assault on the Second Amendment, the racial manipulation tactics fueling it, and the silence of voters who should know better.
We don’t sugarcoat it. The Vanboolzalness Crisis is real. You either push back or get steamrolled.
Mark brings the stats, the lawsuits, and the war stories. Peter brings the fire. If you believe freedom isn’t negotiable, this is your show.

The CCP’s War on Culture and the West’s Complicity

What happens when a regime erases faith, family, and freedom—while the West watches in silence?
On this gripping episode of The Next Steps Show, Shen Yun conductor Ying Chen joins the fight for truth, shedding light on China’s brutal persecution of Falun Gong, state-sponsored cultural erasure, and the creeping silence of American complicity.
From labor camps to propaganda, from spiritual genocide to tech surveillance, this isn’t just China’s problem. It's a preview of what happens when governments gain unchecked power over life, culture, and conscience.
You may not see this truth on mainstream media—but you’ll hear it here. Listen, learn, and sound the alarm before it's too late.

Exposing the Ideological War on Life in New York

What if the real war isn’t overseas—but in the womb, the classroom, and the courtroom?
In this explosive episode of The Next Steps Show, Rev. Jim Harden of CompassCare delivers a relentless indictment of America’s ideological drift—from firebombed pregnancy centers to black-market population control. We expose the truth behind New York’s abortion machine, Planned Parenthood’s eugenic legacy, and the Biden administration’s weaponized silence.
This isn’t just about policy. It’s about power—who gets to live, and who gets erased.
What’s happening in New York is a case study in what happens when a government forgets God and turns on its own people. Rev. Harden brings the facts, the fire, and the faith.

Truth vs Tyranny: Exposing Dependency, Lies, and Foreign Agendas

While Democrats scream that “people will die,” Trump just handed America's workforce the most aggressive tax break in a generation: no income tax on tips or overtime. Real relief for the real people who keep this country running.
 
But this show wasn’t just about a bill—it was a reckoning.
 
Watch here: https://youtube.com/live/tLIvC_ENVJ8?feature=share
 
We exposed the rot:
40% of New Yorkers on Medicaid—and politicians proud of it.
Office towers empty, youth jobless, but we fund the able-bodied not to work.
The real reason Democrats loathe tax cuts? It weakens their power over you.
“Social justice”? It’s become a global scam, propped up by the same leftists pushing gender politics in Iran and censorship at home.
 
We called out:
The Van-bōōl-zal-ness Crisis—a population addicted to handouts, groomed for government worship.
The Democrats’ obsession with preserving failure because it keeps voters weak, scared, and loyal.
A former U.S. Senator now selling secular utopias for Tehran—while ghosting the American people.
 
And we reminded you: Freedom means keeping what you earn. Thinking for yourself. And never bowing to tyranny—whether it wears a suit in Albany or a turban in Tehran.

Fighting for Life in the Valleys: A Rural Stand Against the Culture of Death

In an America that too often trades conviction for convenience, two rural warriors rise up to defend the unborn.
Charlene Reddy and Connie Nichols of the Pregnancy Resource Center of the Valleys are not waiting for government handouts or political permission. They are doing the work—on the ground, in the trenches—standing up for life, truth, and real healing in a state hellbent on silencing them.
This is not theory. This is not policy wonkery. This is the real-world impact of faith in action.
They share gut-wrenching stories: women carrying decades of post-abortive pain, men broken by the loss of children they never got to hold, and entire communities gaslit into believing death is a right and life is an inconvenience.
You’ll hear how PRC Valleys operates completely free of government funding—because they refuse to compromise their Christ-centered mission. You’ll hear how they offer real options, real counseling, real fatherhood programs, and healing ministries that Planned Parenthood never will.
And you’ll hear the truth: that the abortion industry isn’t about empowerment—it’s about erasure. Erasing faith, erasing family, and erasing the future.
If you're tired of the lies, if you're hungry for truth, and if you're ready to take the next step—this is your call to action. Listen now.

From Shiloh to the Frontlines: A Terror Survivor's Wake-Up Call to America

He was driving home with his three-year-old son in the back seat when the bullets hit.
Terrorists opened fire with AK-47s on a quiet Israeli road, leaving David Rubin bleeding, his car crippled, and his son—shot in the head—silent in shock. But that night didn’t end in death. It became the beginning of something far more powerful: a voice that refuses to stay silent.
 
On this episode of The Next Steps Show, Peter Vazquez sits down with the Honorable David Rubin, former mayor of Shiloh, Israel, terror survivor, and founder of the Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund. And they don’t waste a second.
 
Broadcasting straight from Israel, Rubin tells the story the media won’t touch. From personal tragedy to national survival, he pulls back the curtain on the real enemies of Judeo-Christian civilization—radical Islam, the far-left alliance, and the global institutions funding both.
 
Rubin lays it bare: Iran isn’t just Israel’s enemy. It’s the puppet master funding terror across the Middle East and beyond. Hamas isn’t a resistance—it's a death cult. And the so-called “progressive” American left? They’re playing right into their hands, blindly chanting slogans they don’t understand while siding with regimes that would jail or kill them for their beliefs.
 
This episode isn’t about headlines. It’s about history. It’s about faith, clarity, and courage in an upside-down world.
Why Israel will never allow Iran to go nuclear
The real reason Marxists and jihadists are aligned
What American college students don't know—and how it’s killing us
Why President Trump was right to stand firm
And how healing broken children became David Rubin’s life’s work
 
This is more than a political discussion. It’s a spiritual and cultural wake-up call for anyone who still believes in truth, family, and the God-given right to defend both.

While cities like Rochester hide behind buzzwords like “equity” and “momentum,” Hornell’s Mayor John J. Buckley is rolling up his sleeves, balancing budgets, restoring dignity, and doing what most big-city mayors refuse to do - lead with conviction.
 
We tackled the absurdity of Washington State prioritizing Islamic holidays over Easter and Yom Kippur, exposed the corrosive rot of single-party rule, and shined a light on the difference between political noise and principled governance.
 
Mayor Buckley’s story isn’t about politics, it’s about responsibility, community, and backbone. From the zoning board to City Hall, he proves that real change starts local, not in Albany’s ivory tower or D.C.’s echo chamber.
 
If you’ve ever asked, “Why does my city feel broken? this is the episode that shows what happens when a mayor serves people, not agendas.
 
“Strong communities aren’t built with slogans—they’re built when families choose commitment over chaos, and leaders choose courage over politics.” – Peter Vazquez

They call it momentum. We call it Van-bōōl-zal-ness—the crisis of deception dressed as progress. While Malik Evans touts’ feel-good slogans, the reality on Rochester’s streets tells a different story. 
From race-baiting speeches to equity theater, this isn’t leadership—it’s gaslighting at a government scale. We’re not here to clap—we’re here to call it out.
Peter takes the gloves off and exposes the hollow hope and orchestrated crisis plaguing our cities. Featuring Malcolm X truth bombs, real talk on volunteerism, and a takedown of the myth of momentum. If you’re tired of the lies, the labels, andthe legacy of liberal failure—tune in. This is where we fight back with faith, facts, and fire.

They said the people’s house was too dangerous. That innocence was outdated. That tradition had to give way to “progress.” But we strip away the noise and expose what’s really going on, a quiet unraveling of everything that once held us together.
From the White House lawn to the classroom desk, the message is clear: what used to be sacred is now mocked, and what once required moral courage is now labeled as hate. 
But not on our watch. With voices from the ground, parents, patriots, and educators, we confront the crisis not just of policy, but of purpose. It’s not just confusion in our classrooms or fences around our symbols, it’s the systematic flipping of right and wrong, good and evil, order and chaos.
If you’ve felt like the world’s upside-down, you’re not alone. But you are needed. Tune in and take the next step - toward truth, tradition, and turning things right-side up.

Next Steps Show April 21 2025

Became a grandpa again this weekend—number six. Little Alazae. Funny how moments like that remind you what actually matters. Family. Faith. The stuff we’re supposed to build society on.
 
But then Monday comes around—and reality hits.
 
I started the show talking about Puerto Rico. A place rich in culture, faith, and family roots… now buried under corruption, blackouts, and rising crime. Resorts are walled off. Guests told not to leave at night. That’s not just tragic—it’s telling.
 
Because what’s happening there is starting to feel a lot like what’s happening here.
 
We’ve got politicians in New York proudly partnering with dysfunction. We’ve got a mayor in California—yes, a Republican—so fed up he jokes about handing out fentanyl just to be done with it. And then there’s the Pope, drifting further left, blurring the line between spiritual leadership and political activism.
 
It all starts to feel... upside down. That’s what I’ve been calling the Van-bōōl-zal-ness Crisis—when moral clarity disappears, and chaos starts to sound like a plan.
 
But here’s the thing: it’s not just about “those people.” It’s about us. About what we tolerate, what we ignore, what we accept because we’re tired or afraid to speak.
 
This show wasn’t just about problems—it was about patterns. The kind we need to recognize if we want to protect what’s still good and fix what’s broken.

Easter isn’t just about an empty tomb—it’s about full lives. 
On this explosive episode of The Next Steps Show, we confront what it really means to live like the resurrection is real. 
Pastor Mike Hennessy joins Peter Vazquez to throw down truth in the public square—faith in the marketplace, fatherhood under fire, biblical manhood under siege, and the resurrection as a cultural reckoning, not just a Sunday morning slogan.
If Christ rose, then everything changes—government doesn’t get the last word, culture doesn’t define truth, and weak leadership has no place at the table.
From the battlefield to the boardroom, and from personal loss to public witness, this show is about standing firm. No fear. No compromise. No apologies. He is risen. Let’s live like it.

The Next Steps Show: Voice of Liberty in a Time of Chaos
This isn’t your average midday talk. It’s raw, it’s real and it’s unapologetically driven by truth. Peter Vazquez steps up to the mic with a message that cuts through the noise: we are being lied to, taxed into submission, and told that our values are outdated. 
From the founding of federal income tax to the gutting of Title IX, Peter connects the dots past to present to show how today’s policies are shredding the Constitution and betraying the American people.
He calls out Gavin “Newsom Gruesome,” drags New York’s "Hocus Pocus" leadership, and tears the mask off the victimhood narrative being force-fed to minorities and working families. Peter doesn’t hide behind party lines he challenges everyone, Democrat or Republican, to defend what they believe or get out of the way.
It’s about civic literacy, not political theater. It’s about real Americans losing real freedoms while D.C. and statehouses run cover for confusion and cowardice. You’ll hear stories that matter, like the makeshift homeless "living rooms" under California overpasses, and why Title IX isn't about “inclusion” it’s about integrity.
Peter shares biblical truth that lifts up, even as he exposes darkness. “Have nothing to do with fruitless deeds but rather expose them.” That’s Ephesians 5:11—and that’s the mission of this show.
The Next Steps Show is not just conversation it’s confrontation with conviction. If you’re tired of dancing around the truth, tune in and meet up.
