Your Heard Tell Show for Monday, September 25th, is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by starting with the admission as we enter government shutdown week that neither congress nor the American people take spending and fiscal responsibility seriously, as proven by the data from the government on what we do spend our money on, and the actions of the public and congress that speak louder than their words. Reporter Adam Bass returns to the program with a local focus and first hand account of what happens when migrants from the border crisis comes to town, how both elected officials and the public react, the communication - or lack there of - between federal, state, and local authorities, and what it really looks like when national headlines and narratives show up in your town and have to be dealt with. Then, Eric Suarez joins the program to talk about the Biden's administration's latest deal with Venezuela which has some eyebrow raising concessions to the Nicolás Maduro dictatorship in exchange for loosening restrictions on Venezuelan oil. Eric explains from the perspective of being Venezuelan why this is a bad deal and a bad bet for America, the current situation politically and economically in Venezuela, the long shadow of Hugo Chavez that still looms over not just that country but South and Latin America, and what the future holds going forward for the Venezuelan people.

All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.
