God Country Family framed a wide-ranging conversation led by host Peter Vazquez with Gary Stout and Bob Savage, while Bob D’Angelo kept the signal steady. From stress culture and fear-driven shutdowns to broken schools and diluted faith, the show drew a clear line between order and chaos. God Country Family is not nostalgia. It is survival.
Friday did not start with outrage. It started with Spanish, rock and roll, and the kind of laughter that reminds you America is still worth fighting for. Peter Vazquez opened the mic, Gary Stout joined the conversation, Bob Savage was at the table, and Bob D’Angelo held it all together in the control room, keeping the signal steady while the focus locked in: God, Country, Family is not a slogan. It is the order that keeps a free people from collapsing into managed chaos.
The discussion moved from “National Escape Day” and unrelenting stress to a culture that burns people out while calling it progress. Then came the harder truths: shutdown calls dressed up as solidarity, fear-driven compliance, and propaganda that turns small businesses into props. When people are pressured to perform instead of speak, truth becomes the first casualty.
From violent crime and family collapse to schools hijacked by so-called restorative excuses, the question stayed blunt: Who is school for, the disruptor or the kids who actually want to learn? No hedging. Structure matters. Discipline matters. Fathers matter.
The warning was unmistakable: faith diluted into a government-approved blend, borders treated like suggestions, and long-game influence operations betting that Americans stay distracted. With clarity and conviction, the line was drawn. A nation that forgets God, Country, Family will be sold a replacement story.
Take a breath. Then take a stand.

The program opened with music, humor, and cultural references, setting a human tone before pivoting to serious reflection. The discussion centered on National Escape Day and the reality of chronic stress, burnout, and a culture that glorifies exhaustion while ignoring responsibility and rest.
Attention turned to nationwide shutdown calls and so-called general strikes. The panel questioned whether these actions reflected genuine grassroots concern or coordinated pressure campaigns. Small businesses, particularly family-owned shops, were highlighted as being caught between fear and forced solidarity.
The conversation moved into crime, family breakdown, and education. The hosts challenged restorative justice policies that prioritize disruptive behavior over learning, asking plainly who schools are meant to serve. Personal experiences illustrated how discipline, structure, and clear expectations once improved outcomes and why abandoning them has produced predictable failures.
Faith and culture became central themes. The panel warned against attempts to dilute or merge belief systems into a government-approved ideology, arguing that faith loses its meaning when stripped of conviction. God, Country, and Family were presented not as political tools, but as foundational principles that historically restrained chaos and protected liberty.
Callers contributed reflections on history, spiritual warfare, and the recurring pattern of truth-tellers being silenced. References to global influence operations, cultural subversion, and long-term strategies aimed at weakening Western civilization underscored the seriousness of the moment.
The episode closed with a reminder that leadership requires clarity, courage, and rest. Americans were encouraged to disengage from manufactured outrage, think critically, and recommit to God, Country, Family as active responsibilities rather than passive slogans.
Self-employed Carpenter | Advocate
Gary Stout hails from a small town in Pennsylvania, a place where traditions like carrying guns on the bus for rifle team matches were a part of everyday life. His childhood in this unique setting instilled in him a deep appreciation for community values and traditions.
In 1964, at the age of ten, Gary's life journey took a significant turn when his family relocated to Greece. This move marked the beginning of a new chapter, one that would see him settle in the area for the majority of his life, with the exception of a brief year and a half spent in California.
For many years, Gary was a self-employed carpenter, a career that allowed him to harness his skills and independence. His craftsmanship and dedication to his trade were evident in every project he undertook. In 2012, Gary transitioned from his carpentry work to join the Power and Construction Group. Here, he worked on a notable project: rewiring the Thousand Island Bridge. Leveraging his rock climbing experience, Gary played a crucial role in the project, especially in replacing the necklace lighting that outlines the support cables. This job was not just a career shift but a testament to his versatility and ability to adapt to new challenges.
Gary retired in 2020, but his retirement was not the end of his active contributions to society. Instead, it marked the beginning of his deeper involvement in advocating for constitutional rights. Initially, he started with GOANYS, bringing his passion and experience to the forefront. More recently, he has been volunteering with New York Citizen… Read More
