Heard Tell

On this Heard Tell Good Talks, On this Heard Tell Good Talks, guest Em Carpenter, attorney and Senior Editor at Ordinary-Times.com is one of many lawyers and SCOTUS watches that are really fired up about the new 6-3 ruling by The Court regarding whether poor representation is grounds for two death row inmates to get considerations. Em also talks about how vital representation is to our system of justice, how the adversarial component of criminal justice needs good representation on both sides, how that plays into the crisis of not having enough good lawyers, and how it exasperates issues at the sharp, pointy end of the legal system.

Your Heard Tell for Wednesday, 25 May, 2022 is turning down the noise and getting the information we need on the terrible news out of Texas and the school shooting in Uvalde that has left at least 19 children and 2 adults dead. Coming just 10 days after the Buffalo killings we once again find ourselves arguing over familiar ground of why mass shootings happen so often in America, and why just arguing over guns, policy, legislation, and the motives of the individual shooters aren't getting us anywhere near reducing/preventing these terrible events. We have primary results to cover, starting in Georgia where the Trump vendetta ride did not have a good night as two of MAGA's main targets for "correcting" 2020 in Governor Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger not only won against Trump-backed opponents but triumphed outright by large margins. We will also cover other primary races of note in Georgia, Texas, and Alabama. Guest Em Carpenter, attorney and Senior Editor at Ordinary-Times.com is one of many lawyers and SCOTUS watches that are really fired up about the new 6-3 ruling by The Court regarding whether poor representation is grounds for two death row inmates to get considerations. Em also talks about how vital representation is to our system of justice, how the adversarial component of criminal justice needs good representation on both sides, how that plays into the crisis of not having enough good lawyers, and how it exasperates issues at the sharp, pointy end of the legal system. We end on an uplifting note that finds a couple in Wales who proves it is good to be in love, regardless of age, and even when the newly wed couple are a combined age of 179. All that and more on this Wednesday Edition of Heard Tell.

Your Heard Tell for Tuesday, 24 May, 2022 is turning down the noise and getting the information we need on how in this midterm election season the Democratic Party is "listening, but not hearing" what voters are saying about the issues of the day, and Republicans aren't doing much better, as detailed in new writing from our friend Jay Caruso. A Russian diplomat has resigned and has publicly written as to the reason why, become one of the few government officials to publicly come out against Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine, we'll detail what he said in that scathing resignation letter. Our guest today Ben Sears, contributor at Ordinary-Times.com and long time writer about college football helps us turn down the noise on the very public feud and accusations flying between Alabama Head Coach Nick Saban and Texas A&M Coach Jimbo Fisher that has folks once again talking about money and corruption in the college game. The difference now of course, as Ben explains, is the new rules over NILs and how players can now be paid for their image and likeness, and how nothing the coaches are accusing each other of is against the new rules. Also, Ben talks about how the traditional football powers are already starting to flex their muscles with players who have more say than ever before over their careers. Meanwhile, the House Ethics Committee has officially opened investigations into three members of congress, and the names are very familiar as we've made mention of them before on Heard Tell. We take our habit of ending the program on an uplifting note out to Wisconsin and into costume for a local theater company who is using Disney character dress up to promote theater and the arts and raise money for kids programs. All that and more on this Tuesday edition of Heard Tell.

Your Heard Tell for Monday, 23 May, 2022 is turning down the noise and getting the information we need on the damning, 300 page investigation report on the complicity of leadership in the Southern Baptist Convention in covering up, excusing, and enabling sexual abuse within churches and the denomination. We'll review the thoughts of former SBC leader Dr. Russel Moore plus our own thoughts from having been covering this story. Lithium mining is the core resource behind the push for greener technology and especially electric vehicles, but a proposal for the largest lithium mine east of the Mississippi has run into controversy in North Carolina, Alexander Kaufman has a in-depth piece at Huffpost that convers the nuances and entanglements when the buzzwords of green technology hit the very real issues of mining in a community that is skeptical of both the technology and the ecological damage to their area.
