Heard Tell

Your Heard Tell show for Tuesday, June 28th, 2022 is turning down the news cycle noise and getting to the information we need on how the old saying of "with freedom comes responsibility" doesn't work with a society that doesn't want any responsibility for their freedoms. With the Supreme Court in the headlines and dominating the discourse, we take a Twitter thread from our friend Eric Garcia to apply our principle that nothing happens in a vacuum, it happens in a sequence and apply it to the current makeup of SCOTUS. Our guest today is Heard Tell regular Joe Szymanski of Elections Daily who joins to breakdown recent primary elections, look ahead to the general, and take stock of what we have and haven't learned in a busy and contentious midterm election season. In addition to the numbers and results, we also talk about the problem of some truly unfit for office candidates in Missouri and Pennsylvania. Joe also points out some congressional races and districts that aren't making headlines, but ones that you should be paying attention to. Also, we touch on the horrible news out of San Antonio of a mass casualty incident involving migrants jammed into a truck, and a resort community pulls together to help out a stranded and luggage-less couple trying to get married. All that and more on this Tuesday edition of Heard Tell.

On this Heard Tell Good Talks, guest today is journalist Molly McCluskey, who returns to Heard Tell to talk about her excellent work with Diplomatica Global Media, which meets the crossing of politics, architecture, intrigue, and human interest stories at the Embassies and diplomatic properties here in America. Molly explains some of the history and background, and talks about two stories that exemplify how these properties not only bring history to life but are essential players in current events. She writes about a man who has been protesting outside the Vatican Embassy for over 25 years, and also uses the Ukrainian Embassy as an example of how support and protest of world events usually exhibits at diplomatic properties.

We skip the sweeping claims and buzzword rhetoric to work through the status of the states, which ones have what restrictions, what's coming next, and how this is just the beginning of the debate over abortion in America. We cover reporting on how Russia is plundering grain from Ukraine, and sending it to a country that is giving aid and rhetoric to Ukraine on one hand, but taking the Russian stolen grain with the other, we'll cover some excellent reporting from Sky News.

On this Heard Tell Good Talks, guest Garion Frankel returns to Heard Tell to talk about Latino culture, demographics, "LatinX", and how identity doesn't always fit neatly onto a government form or political/cultural debate. Garion uses his own family's example and explains how the Chicano movement changed not only a region, but a group of people, and his own family. Plus, Garion gets into the political and cultural changes within Hispanics and Latinos in places like the Rio Grande Valley, and why election results like the recent Texas Special Election for the 34th district flipping for the first time 150 years is surprising if you pay attention to facts on the ground in the RVG, and not the "demographics is destiny" rhetoric of past years.

Your Heard Tell show for Monday, June 20th, 2022 is turning down the news cycle noise and getting to the information we need on a perfect example of how headline writing and SEO optimization is manipulating the news and aiming more for your emotions and reactions than informing, we'll walk through how the noise of the news cycle really works using a Fox News story about Disney and a child sex predator sting. Meanwhile, in Uvalde, the horrible story of Robb Elementary just keeps getting worse, as the City of Uvalde and Uvalde police are lawyering up to prevent practically all information and video of and surrounding the school shooting and police response from becoming public, we'll discuss it.

On this Heard Tell Good Talks, guest today is Heard Tell show regular and Ordinary Times contributing editor Dr Michael Siegel. While normally we have our friend on to talk science, we wade into some of the hot topics surrounding January 6th. First, as a Pennsylvania resident, Michael talks about GOP PA GOV nominee Doug Mastriano whom he has written about before, but now is comparing the events of Jan 6th to the Reichstag Fire of Nazi Germany infamy, and how we can add this to the list of things that make him unfit for office. Plus, we delve into the debate surrounding Ashli Babbitt, which Michael has also been writing about, and the specific and larger questions of legal, moral, and ethical culpability for not only her death, but the QAnon crazy that fueled her and other, the conspiracy theories that fired up the mob on January 6th, and the leaders who played along until they and the country got bit.
