  • Choosing Right Before A Crisis, Core Cause of Congressional Chaos, Movies w/Film Critic Luis Mendez

    Your Heard Tell Show for Friday, October 20th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by talking about the very real danger in the inflammed rhetoric and escalating tensions we see from the Israel-Hamas war, rising anti-semitism, pro-Palestinian protests, and why now more than ever we should believe what folks insist on telling us, and why everyone must decided what they will do in a crisis before the crisis comes. We get to the root cause of the GOP chaos in the House of Representatives, and how what we are seeing with Jim Jordan and others is just a symptom of problems that have been building for years in the Republican Party. Our guest is Heard Tell's resident film critic Luis Mendez, of the Mendez Movie Report, who returns to talk the business of movies as the writer's strike ends and the actor's strike continues, the looming awards season, how streaming has changed how "cult classics" will be determined in the future, how Hollywood misses with movie releases trying to goose the summer box office, and much more.

    On this Heard Tell Good Talks, Eric Suarez joins the program to talk about the Biden's administration's latest deal with Venezuela which has some eyebrow raising concessions to the Nicolás Maduro dictatorship in exchange for loosening restrictions on Venezuelan oil.

  • Prices & Inflation; On Comparing Hamas to 9/11; Canada Media Law; History & Economics of Furniture

    Your Heard Tell Show for Friday, October 13th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by having some grown folk talk about inflation, consumer prices, and the constant narratives about the economy that have a real disconnect between the numbers, the talking heads, and the folks at the cash registers. Then, we dive into the usage of "this is Israel's 9/11" in reference to the ghastly terrorism of Hamas, how the comparison is and isn't applicable, and how folks appealing to "how you felt" on that day need to also consider the days that followed. Our guest is Canadian journalist and Young Voices contributor Joseph Bouchard who describes Canada's latest efforts to regulate online news media, how the "Online News Act'' compares to what other countries are trying to do, the Trudeau government's questionable history on free press and free speech, and how the turbulent political atmosphere north of the border is hanging over everything coming out of Ottawa. Also, historian and Ordinary Times writer Eric Medlin has a new book out on the rise, fall, and return of the furniture industry, and how there are plenty of lessons both economically, in how technology changes businesses, cultural and societal impact of industrial change, and how oversimplifying things as just "change" or "globalization" misses what is really going all.

  • Perspective From Israel on Hamas, Civil Asset Forfeiture, Does Iowa Caucus Ground Game Still Matter?

    Your Heard Tell Show for Thursday, October 12th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by reading the writing of Avi Woolf from his perspective in Israel after the Hamas terrorist attack and the "The Death of Hamas’ Weakness Excuse, or Why Might Can Be Right." Our guest is Sarah Anderson of the R Street Institute who joins us to talk about her writing in The Hill about Civil Asset Forfeiture and how it isn't just victimizing folks but also undermines good police and the legitimate law enforcement. Then, our friend and Iowa election expert John Deeth explains the ins and outs of the looming Iowa caucuses, does having "ground game" still matter, the reality of Trump support, how Iowa views President Biden, and how the Democratic Party is moving forward with ending the Iowa Caucuses as we've known them. We end on a good note, with a pop superstar doing something unique, and helpful, with the proceeds from their current tour.
