Heard Tell

Heard Tell for Monday, April 11th, 2022, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need on stories about how the January 6th committee is "split" on what to do, so we apply our rules about there being no such thing as a leak, discuss the concerns over their referrals/findings getting "politicized" and what are/are not reasonable expectations with the electoral clock ticking. Also, the French presidential election goes to a run off with President Marcon once again facing off with Marie Le Pen, so we review the issues with Le Pen, her cozy ties with Vladimir Putin, and how some on the American right are hoping for her to be the next Orban-like authoritarian. Guest Jane Bambauer, Professor of Law at the University of Arizona and a Young Voices contributor discusses the Fourth Amendment and the new spin on warrants and searches in "geofencing" crowds and groups of people.  We discuss the very old legal issues that new technology is challenging and redefining, and Jane breaks down a specific case of the courts ruling law enforcement went too far not only against the suspect but twenty other bystanders who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Plus we discuss what issues need to be solved through case law, what needs to be done legislatively, and what everyone needs to know about their rights when it comes to search & seizure in real life and of your data. We update two stories we've been covering on Heard Tell with breaking news in Pakistan, and after covering the Schindler's List "red coat" girl last week, the secretary who actually typed "the list" passes away and we take a moment to remember and honor her, and finally the story of the workers who found a fortune of art in a barn clean out dumpster. All that and more on this Monday edition of Heard Tell.

Heard Tell for Wednesday, April 6th, 2022, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need on some of the toughest, loudest, most controversial issues of our day with West Virginia Delegate Danielle Walker (D-51, Monongalia). We turn down the noise - and our priors and preconceptions - and have a grown folk talk about the trending issues like CRT and education legislation, the opioid crisis, race, and the economic issues of West Virginia, but also talk about people beyond policies and buzzwords. Del Walker explains why things like the CROWN Act are important and how things like discrimination affect jobs, opportunities, and identity. We discuss the history of minorities in West Virginia and greater Appalachia and the importance of getting all of history told for all of us. Del. Walker also talks about her personal experience of making West Virginia home, legislating in a super minority and still finding ways to get things done, and directly addresses the contention of society needing to be "colorblind" both as an elected official and in a very personal way. Also, we end on some good news as a bill that is very near and dear to Del Walker's heart brought overwhelming support from both sides of the House of Delegates, and the emotional signing into law something that will save lives and honor a legacy. All that and more with Delegate Danielle Walker for the full program, on this Wednesday edition of Heard Tell.
