Plus, writer Micah Safsten of the Utah Water Research Laboratory and a Young Voices contributor joins Heard Tell to talk the Great Salt Lake being alarmingly less than it was, the crisis of water in the wider US West, and how the regulation and control of water is both a pressing issue and one of man's oldest challenges.

On this Best of Heard Tell, you might have Heard Tell that President Biden has finally revealed his long promised student debt relief proposals. So, we review some of our recent Good Talks regarding student loans and student loan debt forgiveness, and by extension the very high cost of higher education. 

From May of 2022, Attorney and Ordinary Times Senior Editor Em Carpenter gives her personal take and professional opinion on the ongoing student load debt debate, talks about how student loans affected her education and career, and what she thinks about potential forgiveness schemes.

From June of 2022 guest Sean Themea joins Heard Tell to talk about the current talk and schemes surrounding student loan debt. Sean discusses the issues with debt forgiveness, who will and won't benefit from the various plans, and how all the forgiveness in the world won't change the inherent problems in higher education. Sean also discusses the political calculations, and what the reaction to student debt forgiveness might look like

From August 2022 Flavia Nunez joins us to help turn down the noise on the student loans debates over forgiveness, repayment, how the entire system of student financing really works. Flavia brings the focus back to the human aspect of an issue that has become all slogans and buzzwords, explaining from first-hand experience the pressure that is put on first time college students to take financial aid, and how that pressure is not only ramping up but an intregal part of the higher education business model

From 2021:

The Opioid epidemic is still raging through communities even as other events dominate the news headlines. But with over 90K dead from overdoses in 2020, there is no end in sight to the crisis. We turn to Dr. Keith Humphreys who has been an addiction expert for many years on his recent testimony before a US Senate committee on the opioid crisis, how the new synthetic drugs like Fentanyl are a whole new level of deadly challenge, why "it's just addicts getting what they deserve" fails not only on a human level but in cost to communities as well. We also ask him as a former advisor to the Obama White House on drug policy what government can/can't do about addiction issues, and as a psychiatrist what everyday people should be doing to help each other in the darkest of human trials. Also, as a native West Virginian, we get his thoughts on the ongoing civil trial in federal court of drug manufactures by Huntington, WV and how that might change the landscape in the fight against Big Pharma and the Opioid Crisis going forward.
