Your Heard Tell Show for Monday, July the 11th, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need on the Biden Adminstration catching flack from their own side for the White House's reaction, or lack thereof, to the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v Wade. The president issued an executive order on Friday regarding abortion, but that isn't quelling complaints of not having a strategy and response for something everyone knew was coming for months, we'll discuss it. Steve Bannon is back in the news, we'll turn down the noise on the headlines about him being "willing" to testify before the January 6th committee and get to the real motivation, reasons, and plans of the wannabe Trumpworld Machiavelli. Our guest today is economist, Heard Tell favorite, and Ordinary Times contributor Jericho Hill who joins us to talk about the economy in very practical, real life ways. Jericho talks about the weird, unusal, and seemingly contradictory economic numbers and headlines, what is causing them, and what it all means. Plus, we get into some really practical economic application based of a hiring advertisement at a popular fast food chain, and what it tells us about workers, employers, labor market, and the current issues in the service sector economy. Our uplifting segment ends the program with the story of the parents of a Make A Wish child repelling off a building in memory of their child while raising awareness and funds. All that and more on this Monday edition of Heard Tell.
Your Heard Tell Twice on Sunday covers everything from the 4th of July, to Elong Musk and Twitter falling out, again, to UK Politics, fatherhood, criminal justice reform, and more as we review the week that was in turning down the noise of the news cycle.
On this Heard Tell: Special Edition we review our own coverage of the Elon Musk Twitter saga from the first announcement back in April to the Friday night news dump that Musk was pulling out of the deal. Since this story is going to continue in court and in news & social media, we look back on what we said, what we got right and got wrong, and what it all means. Included is two great conversations we had with RJ Lehmann and James Czerniawski on the topic. It is an Elon Musk & Twitter Special Edition of Heard Tell.
Our guest today is journalist Courtney Hessler of the Hearld-Dispatch in Huntington, West Virginia who has been covering the opioid trials there. Courtney will explain the legal rulings that came down this week, background on the opioid crisis in Huntington, and the legal, political, and cultural issues surrounding it. Also, Courtney helps to put a human face on the issue of addiction that too often slides into stereotypes, raw numbers, and lack of caring for the people who are suffering the most and need the most help.
