On this Heard Tell Good Talks, our guest Sarah Rumpf of Mediaite joins us to get past the rhetoric and narratives of the State of Florida's legislation changing the Reedy Creek Improvement District, otherwise known as the land where Disney World sits. Sarah walks us through the black-and-white of the passed law, the previous agreements and regulations that also have legal bearing, and how if it stands the whole mess is headed to court. We also talk about the political implications of Gov Ron DeSantis choosing this particular moment and issue to pick a fight with the House of Mouse, accusations that there is no plan, the working theory that the governor did this knowing it would be stopped in court, and how the raised national profile plays back in Florida in what is an election year for the governor. Also, Sarah has talked to and research extensively the local level government, services, and finances that will be affected should the law stand as written, and she explains how undoing 50+ years of governing, infrastructure, bonds, taxes, and services need careful planning and due diligence to change – something even the primary sponsor of the bill admits didn’t happen here.

Science! Believe the Science! Believe all scientist! She blinded me with science!

Lettice and Host Andrew talk the process of Liz Truss defeating Rishi Sunak, her background and political rise, and the weeks of news media coverage and narratives leading up the her first day in No. 10. Lettice walks us through the tough political reality PM Truss is walking into, heading a post-Boris Tory Party, facing a reinvigorated Labour Party, the pressing issues of cost of living and energy crisis, and the looming general election that in reality only give her a matter of months to make her mark and a very steep political hill to climb. Lettice also deals with the comparsion - fair and unfair - of Liz Truss and previous prime minsters, and the inevitable comparisons to Theresa May and Margret Thatcher. Plus, a judge has ordered the selection of a Special Master and temporarily enjoined the DOJs use of materials collected from the Mar-a-lago search warrant, we'll turn down the noise on the latest in what is looking to be a long legal process. Also, new polling gives context to trending issues regarding higher education and stiudent loans, as data on regrets over chosen majors and fields of study shows. We go to Pakistan where catastrophic flooding has left a third of the country under water and massive humanitarian and economic destruction, and how folks can help.

“Social media is bad for your mental health” we are relentlessly told, but is engagement through technology on issues like culture and politics really a uniformly bad thing? We turn to Dr. Kathryn Gordon helps us turn down the noise in the news cycle on mental health and helps us better understand questions like did the Covid-19 pandemic really bring about a huge mental health crisis, does political engagement and cultural debate hurt or help your mental health. She also delves into popular culture to give us some good examples of how mental health is dealt with in movies and TV shows, and some of them you might find surprising.

Senate Dais Diatribe For Dollars; Putin, Explained; Adoption; Education & Economics w/ Lillian Tara
Heard Tell
03/23/22 • 48 min
Heard Tell for Wednesday, March 23th, 2022, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need on whether all the attention the senator's on the dais for the Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmation hearings are getting the political bang for their attention-seeking buck in the high-profile proceedings. We go overseas to review an interview in Der Spiegel that explains the world as Vladimir Putin sees it, how that viewpoint affects everything he does, and how western media keep getting his motivations so wrong despite him being very open about it in plain language. Guest Lillian Tara updates us on Glenn Youngkin's promised education action in Virginia now that the election is over. We talk about the role of education, and since Lillian studies economics, we get into how education and money are topics folks desperately try to keep separate, but are inexorably linked. Also, we touch in with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson who once again finds himself in hot water over something he said, a heart warming story about adoption and giving back, and more on this Wednesday edition of Heard Tell
