Episode Synopsis

Your Heard Tell for Tuesday, December the 27th, 2022, is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by starting our news media/social media adventures in the Year of Our Lord 2023 by reviewing why we started in media in the first place, and why social media is a tool, its use for good or bad up to the person using it. We talk about potential Speaker of The House Kevin McCarthy and his math problem, which is indicitive more trouble to come as his party clearly isn't fully behind him. Our guest is the returning Ethan Brown, host of The Sweaty Penguin podcast to talk about the latest versions of a very old debate about overpopulation, from the "population bomb" of the 1970s that is getting fresh run lately to Malthusianism of the 1790s and beyond, and how modern techonology and environmental concern should shows a bright future that mocks the doomsayers. Plus, the local paper on Long Island who got the George Santos story right from the beginning, and a charity in West Virginia gets a perpetuity grant that comes from a legacy of service and volunteering. All that and more on this Tuesday edition of Heard Tell. --------------------Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles?
