Shenandoah (American Folk Song)

"Charlie"

I was blessed to encounter folk singer/songwriter Jesse Welles on X (formerly Twitter) and reached out to him on DMs. He’s been kind in responding and being genuine. Jesse Welles is a gifted songwriter whose lyrics cut to the core. We need more of this but Jesse is one of a kind, a gift from God like the great folk singers of America’s past. He recently posted his latest song “Charlie” to his Youtube channel [https://youtube.com/@hellswelles?si=qT7t4zAbxMdL8_F6] and shared it to his X account [https://x.com/jesse_welles]. I’m so moved by this song. What we’re witnessing in America now, with people cheering for Charlie Kirk’s assassination, is devastating to behold the evil that people are gleefully putting on display. I’m sharing Jesse’s song here with you along with his poignant lyrics. “Charlie” by Jesse Welles: for all of the bile the bold talk the venom the hate and the lies no one should be killed no blood should be spilled Charlie shouldn't have died well you can't hate the gun and love the gun that shot yer rival you can't be kind and wish pain upon a child everybody's gotta say what they're needing to say as soon as they're needing to say it the freedom to speak to be a freak and the freedom to say you hate it and have a big ole conversation I heard laughing I heard glee but it coulda been you it coulda been me out in the bloodshed everyone loses there's unforgettable scars out in the bloodshed permanent bruises shapes up who you are children left to wander america aimless with a firebrand of resent wondering who it is took my daddy with a destiny of revenge out in the bloodshed the cycle begins and everyone dies spin the wheel, if you don't get killed you wind up dead inside I heard laughing I heard glee but it coulda been you it coulda been me 💔 RIP Charlie Kirk (1993 - 2025) Get full access to Evan Talks at evantalks.substack.com/subscribe [https://evantalks.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]

Wildfire

This is one of my favorite songs from my youth, and now that I’m getting older it hits me even deeper. Someone posted a live concert performance of this on social media the other day and the song has been haunting me ever since. I looked up the chords and as soon as I started playing and singing, I felt all sorts of feelings and memories coming up for me, and wanted to share it out. So I made this video yesterday. I hope it brings you good feelings and helps wake up some primal memories. With love, Ev Are my Substack emails getting marked as ***SPAM***?

Inauguration Day - Evan Talks Short Report

The President fulfilled his promise to Make America Great Again on Day One by signing dozens of Executive Orders immediately after taking the oath of Office. Among the Presidential Actions [https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/] taken by America’s 47th President today include: * Ending Federal Censorship and Restoring Freedom of Speech * Securing Our Borders * Unleashing American Energy * America First Trade Policy * Promoting Beautiful Federal Civic Architecture * Providing Water to Californians * Ending DEI Programs and Institutionalized Racism * Ending Transgender Encroachment into Women’s Spaces and Sports * Restoring Names that Honor American Greatness * Holding Former Government Officials Responsible for Election Interference * Withdrawing America from the World Health Organization * Withdrawing America from the Paris Climate Accords * Full Pardons of 1,500 J6 Political Prisoners * Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government * Reversing all of Biden’s Harmful Executive Orders This has been a day long awaited, and one that many thought would never arrive. America’s rightful President is back in Office. Will he ban the safe and effective clot shot myocarditis stroke and cancer inducing, immune function destroying, brain invading, PRION producing, personality changing nanotech de&th jabs and take them off the market once and for all? We still don’t know, and it’s looking unlikely. But President Trump did order the re-hiring of every person in the military who lost their job for refusing to take the jab, and with full back pay. Clearly President Trump does not approve of mandated medical interventions. So we’ll have to wait and see how it plays out in terms of the rest. In the meantime, enjoy my talking avatar.

[New Song] Question Everything

This song is my latest and comes from the past year of observing our country going down the tubes with tyranny rising, and propaganda and censorship ever-present. As we round the corner to the upcoming (scam?) election, with the legacy media and social media companies ramping up their deplatforming efforts, it’s a mixed bag out there: More and more people are waking up to inconvenient truths that conservatives and independent journalists have been talking about for years; but also, many are still locked into groupthink and advanced-stage TDS, which is concerning. In the past year and recently, we’ve seen among other things: * Not 1 but 2 assassination attempts against President Trump, both ignored or downplayed by legacy media and censored on social media * The deep state coup against Resident Biden— himself the result of the 2020 coup against the then-sitting President Trump— first they rigged and stole the 2020 Presidential election, then they outsted their geriatric implant only to install a cackling lunatic who never got a single vote in any primary * Rampant power grabs by the UN and WHO seeking to supplant local governments and destroy individual sovereignty over our health decisions * A ramping UP of violent and dangerous rhetoric by deep state and Democrat political clowns and the clown media, announcing in no uncertain terms that even if President Trump wins in a landslide, they will not certify the results and they will never let Trump take Office again. They threaten “civil war conditions” and they are pre-programming us with dystopian movies like “Civil War” where they assassinate a President Trump figure and drive the nation into apocalyptic neighbor-on-neighbor war “But wait… there’s more!” * Epstein… * Diddy… * Aren’t those the “conspiracy theories” about elite pedophile rings and child sex trafficking that independent journalists like Liz Crokin [https://lizcrokin.substack.com] have been writing about for YEARS? Yep.. it’s all coming out now, and the pics of Jennifer Lopez at Diddy Parties, topless with multiple men are just the tip of the iceberg. No wonder she’s losing it on social media. [https://x.com/w_terrence/status/1852519591064285694] (tap that link to see Terrence Williams on X deconstruct J-lo’s latest escapade at a recent Kamaltoe rally). All J-lo’s dirty (“diddy”) laundry just might be about to get exposed! My new song “Question Everything” The audio is a rough draft of my new song (still a work in progress) called “Question Everything.” While it doesn’t talk about J-Lo or Diddy, or Epstein or any of that, it was inspired by a year of absolute madness and awakenings alike. Hope you enjoy it. Let me know in the comments! And smash that Like button. (Hint: I played this for one good friend recently, who is still suffering from advanced stage TDS and he couldn’t get past the political undertones, but even he enjoyed the catchy tune. I was like, “Political undertones? Me?) 😂 🤣 😭 Get full access to Evan Talks at evantalks.substack.com/subscribe [https://evantalks.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]
