Your Heard Tell Show for Friday, September 8th, is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by talking about not just remembering September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks, but considering how to remember, and what we should do about it. Nicholas Thielman of Cato joins Heard Tell to discuss the upcoming debate over the Farm Bill, how the annual legislation plays into this year's budget and shutdown drama, breaking down the different kinds of farms and farmers, and the politics of Big Agriculture. Then, our friend and resident Heard Tell critic Luis Mendez of the Mendez Movie Report returns to talk about the busy summer box office season, talk the big winners like Oppenheimer and Barbie but also some surprising hits and misses, the effects of the writers and SAG strike as we approach awards season, and the uneven year the House of Mouse has had and what it means for not only Disney but other studios/companies still learning the theater/streaming balance. We end on a good note, with a great story of a pilot in California who decided to use mandatory flight hour requirements to rescue and help animals.
All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.
