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.

The Next Steps Show—where we don’t whisper truth… we broadcast it.

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 That innocence was outdated.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.

Take a listen. Then take a step.

#TheNextStepsShow #VanboolzalnessCrisis #PeterVazquez #FaithAndFamily #TruthMatters #VoiceOfLiberty #WYSL

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.

Biology is not bigotry. Truth is not hate. And silence? That’s surrender.

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.

Dreams Without Reason – Delusion, Dependency, and the Death of Values

No guest. No filter. Just Peter Vazquez at the mic - taking the gloves off.

Peter confronts a culture losing its grip on truth. From Harvard’s double standard academic freedom to New York City’s delusional billion-dollar bathroom plan, Peter exposes what happens when dreams are no longer anchored in reason and when reason is stripped of moral clarity.

He challenges the modern mindset that trades hard-earned wisdom for victimhood, questions the abuse of SNAP benefits, and calls out the quiet tyranny of policies built on emotion, not Constitution. This isn’t about left or right, it’s about right and wrong.

It’s raw. It’s bold. And it’s 100% Peter—calling America back to faith, reason, and responsibility.
