Your Heard Tell for Wednesday, January 11th, 2022, is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by taking a lesson from the past with Garion Frankel, who explains the current congress could learn a lot from a congressman who served nearly 200 years as his “retirement” job after the presidency, John Quincy Adams, and his fights against the “gag rule” and other issues revolving around abolition and how congress works. Plus, Amanda Griffiths returns to Heard Tell to give a first-hand account of being stuck in the Southwest Airlines holiday shutdown debacle, what lead to and caused the mess, and gives a (sort of) defense of SWA and why she will continue to use the carrier, even while calling for some changes.

All that and more on this Wednesday edition of Heard Tell.
