No One’s Dad’s a Plumber: Bloodlines, Beats and the Machinery of Pop Culture

Broadcasts live every Wednesday at 7:00p.m. uk time on Radio Soapbox: http://radiosoapbox.comIn this lively episode of The Shelley Tasker Show, I open up about my decision to break a long-standing nightly wine habit and the early benefits I’m already feeling—better sleep, steadier mood, and renewed motivation—while Mallificus shares practical substitution tips and dopamine insights. We explore the psychology of habits, gut health, and the role of mindset in making lasting change. Then we welcome researcher and author Mark Devlin, who takes us deep into the intersections of popular music, social engineering, and occult symbolism—from 1960s Laurel Canyon revelations to modern celebrity influence and predictive programming. We discuss artists who toe the industry line, those who resist, and how bloodlines, handlers and mind control allegedly shape the entertainment landscape. Mark also previews his latest books, including Musical Truth Volume 4: No One’s Dad’s a Plumber, and his truth-fiction trilogy. It’s a thought‑provoking conversation about media literacy, critical thinking, and reclaiming personal sovereignty—peppered with sunshine, great tunes, and plenty of laughs along the way.Resources mentioned: Mark Devlin’s website (djmarkdevlin.com) for books, talks, podcasts and audiobooks; David McGowan’s "Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon"; "The Memoirs of Billy Shears"
