Your Heard Tell Show for Friday, August 11th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by talking about the difference between timely vs time sensative news coverage, and how much things can change even from one Heard Tell episode to the next when you try to turn down the noise of the news cycle as evidenced by a political assassination in Ecuador. We update the war in Ukraine, and why we need to discern the headlines of Russia’s invasion now differently than last summer, and understand how the conflict is changing. Our guest is Dennis Sanders who returns to Heard Tell to talk about his writing about hope, and how folks losing it or not keeping it greatly affects our politics and fuels the culture wars. Plus, we talk that David Brooks piece that had everyone talking, and how we do a bad job talking about race, culture, class, and more. We end on a good note with an amazing story out of California of a grieving family and a high school auto shop class who came together to do something special.

All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.
