The Lex + Tony Show

The Lex + Tony Show

A weekly show and a platform for voices and stories we need to hear more. Every Thursday, Lex + Tony take the top trending topics, whatever people are randomly talking about online, and untangle what matters from what's essentially BS. Lex is an educator-turned-digital-marketer so he's a little bit more diplomatic. Tony is an engineer so he's blunt. They’ll bring you hot topics - stories that are being covered in the media, but that really miss the humanity. They’ll chat about shows and movies that everybody is talking about. And they’ll interview real people - community leaders and up-and-coming artists who are working to make a real difference. So if you’re looking for a break from the noise, a good conversation, and to stay in the know without getting bogged down by triggering headlines, this is the podcast for you. Here to uplift you, share the spotlight on things that matter, and inspire hope that things can get better - The Lex + Tony Show™: Think a Little. Laugh a Lot. Make Peace with Things.

Leader(s) drunk with power and wealth refuse to step aside. Can you blame them?!  They have everything they want and then some!

Does that sound familiar? Nope, we're not talking current world politics, tho that IS real life. Prime ministers, senators, presidents, queens, televangelists or popes, you name it, they all cling to power as if their lives depended on it, even when their domains are falling apart because of...

Can a Christian, let alone a minister, go beyond just preaching compassion and actually practice it by being an outspoken ally to the LGBTQ+ community and other minority groups? Is being an ally just crossing the line?

If extending love toward others regardless of their walk of life is crossing the line, then Rev. Sarah Robinson does so proudly - speaking publicly and calling out political agendas that target the LGBTQ+ c...

Every life is precious. There is zero justification for anyone's death. Yet it seems that with the disproportionate number of mass shootings in America, and shootings in general, we've grown desensitized. We hear or read about it and then simply scroll up to the next story, accepting this as our new norm. This is a mistake. We should all take some time to reflect whenever we stumble upon a story like Laurie Carleton'...

Lex and Tony discuss the hot topic of Carlee Russell's alleged abduction, which turned out to be a hoax perpetrated by the "victim" herself. Lex reenacts the story from Alabama, accent and all, of how things unfolded. Lex and Tony debate the question: should Carlee face criminal charges, or simply a slap in the wrist and some mental health care?

Abductions are no laughing matter - a staggering 250,000 Americ...

Lex and Tony discuss the ongoing #strikes by screenwriters and Hollywood actors. They also share part one of an interview with two emerging artists: Zero the Writer and model/actress Avery Angelici. 

The guys dive into the reasons why writers started picketing back in May. Simply put, it boils down to job security and pay. Actors are joining in this month to demand pay security, but also because of the additional threat pr...
