  • Politicizing Crime During An Election Cycle, Who is Rishi Sunak? Ill Communication, w/ Zeke Webster

    Your Heard Tell for Tuesday, 25 October, 2022 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we to discern the times we live in by getting to how communication and messaging is the core of politics, but is so badly handled and misunderstood by so many from the White House to the commentariat online. With Rishi Sunak the new UK Prime Minister, we review our chat with Lettice Bromovsky from during the Conservative Party leadership race on who he is, where he came from, and what to expect from his premiership. Our guest today is attorney and public defender Zeke Webster who returns to Heard Tell to talk about how crime and "law & order" get politicized during an election cycle, turning down the noise on buzzwords and getting to what is really going on in the criminal justice system, and sticky trending topics like bail reform, alternative sentencing, and how the justice system is making more criminals than it is deterring. Plus, we update that Rocky Horror Picture Show story out in Colorado, with a surprising, in-person twist that shows what a small world it really is.

  • Best of Heard Tell: Parsing Out Mike Pence Past, Present, & Pending Presidential Run w/ Tom LoBianco

    On this Best of Head Tell, with former Vice President Mike Pence carefully picking his media spots, making calulated public breaks with former President Donald Trump, and ramping up his 2024 presidential campaign, we review our conversation with journalist and author of "Piety & Power: Mike Pence and the Taking of the White House" Tom LoBianco to turn down the noise and get to the information we need to discern the former VP's attempt at a political redemption arc in the story that spans from Indiana to January 6th to 2024.


    From the original episode:

    Your Heard Tell for Wednesday, August the 3st, 2022 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern the time we live in by going deeper and getting to the real story of former Vice President Mike Pence. Journalist and author of "Piety & Power: Mike Pence and the Taking of the White House" Tom LoBianco joins Heard Tell to explain that to understand the Mike Pence of the Trump years, and the Mike Pence of January 6th, and the Mike Pence that is gearing up for a presidential run, you have to understand Mike Pence of Indiana. Tom walks us through the key parts of Mike Pence's development not only as a politician, but his religious conversion, family upbringing, early cmapigns, and how the stiff, boring persona he now sports in public came to be a reflection of his evolving political ambitions. From Governor of Indiana to Trump running mate, from January 6th target to his presidential campaign in waiting, we'll go indepth to find out where the real Mike Pence comes from, where the evolving public persona starts to take over, and if there is even much of a difference anymore. Tom LoBianco on Mike Pence for the full program, on this special Wednesday edition of Heard Tell.
