Episode Synopsis

Your Heard Tell for Tuesday, 10 May, 2022, is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need by taking the current rhetoric & comparisons of current events to WW2 and putting them into historical context - especially Vladimir Putin's "denazification" lies and the anti-semitism coming out of Russia and elsewhere lately - by highlighting the important work of giving American troops who died in the conflict their own stories, identities, and recognition back in a meaningful way. 20 years after leaving Seattle, aerospace and defense giant Boeing is on the move again, this time leaving Chicago for Northern Virginia, we'll talk about the cultural and political streams that cross in the Second City that has Boeing and other companies on the move, and what lessons we should take from such things. Our guest is attorney and Ordinary-times.com Senior Editor Em Carpenter, who joins us to talk about the recent news that the American Bar Association is reconsidering the use of LSAT scores for perspective law school students. Em helps us skip the caterwauling and explains what is/isn't in the LSAT, gatekeeping in the legal profession, what's good about law school and what needs to be reforms, and why she does the logic puzzle like those found on the LSAT for fun. Also, Em gives her personal take and professional opinion on the ongoing student load debt debate, talks about how student loans affected her education and career, and what she thinks about potential forgiveness schemes. Also, if there is a political leader in the UK not in trouble or under investigation for breaking COVID rules in England, do please stand up, and a story about restorative justice that brings an American veteran full circle.
