    Were The Oscars Overly Political? Winners & Losers, Controversies Large and Small, plus Marvel/Disney Woes & more w/film critic Luis Mendez

    On this episode of Heard Tell we are talking about the goings on at the Academy Awards. The Oscars are always a cultural moment to slather our political & cultural issues upon, so just how political did this year’s ceremony get and how much did politics affect who won and viral cultural moments affect who lost? Film critic Luis Mendez returns to talk about the winners and losers on Oscar night, the cringe moments and the biggest surprises, how an election year and volatile political climate did and did not affect the awards ceremony, and how the film Anora surged ahead after the epic and very public collapse of Emile Perez. Plus Luis and host Andrew talk about the hot mess that is Disney/Marvel studios from the latest Captain America offering’s soft numbers to the controversies surrounding the live-action Snow White.

    Talking Canada w/Canadian Sabine El-Chidiac: Tariffs, Trump, Trudeau, Economics, Elections & more

    On this episode of Heard Tell, we turn down the noise of the news cycle and get to the information we need on Canada being all over US news and politics. But instead of talking about Canada amongst ourselves, let's try something different and talk to Canada and the politics and economics thereof with Sabine El-Chidiac, Canadian Policy Associate for the Consumer Choice Center and an actual Canadian. Sabine and host Andrew talk through the background of the current headlines going back to the first Trump administration, how political upheaval and looming elections affect Canada's position, how the Canadian government works and the politics American's and the world need to know and understand, and the economic crisis that is the undertow to many other problems facing Canada right now. Also, Sabine gives some things to watch for in news coverage coming up, and answers the question "Could Waffle House bring peace between our two nations?" All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.

    Inside Congress, Reaction to Trump, RFK Jr & Autism, Politics of DCA & more w/ reporter Eric Garcia

    On this episode of Heard Tell, we turn down the noise of the news cycle and get to the information we need on the early days of the new Trump administration from the perspective of congress with congressional reporter and Washington Bureau Chief for The Independent Eric Garcia. Eric takes us behind the scenes and into the hallways of Capitol Hill for how the calendar & previous congress actions are dictating the new congress and the proposed Trump agenda, thoughts on the RFJ, Jr. nomination from the perspective of autism advocacy, good media and good reporters, the long-running congressional politics of Reagan National Airport (DCA) in light of the plane collision with a Blackhawk VIP helicopter, previewing some 2026 senate races like Senator Ossoff in Georgia and Senator Tillis in North Carolina, and Eric meets Babydog and despite host Andrew's warning, fell for the Jim Justice bulldog diversion.

  4. Everything Is A Conspiracy If You Don't Understand How Things Work

    Everything Is A Conspiracy If You Don't Understand How Things Work

    There have always been bad faith media actors and conspiracy theorists, because human nature is undefeated and there is nothing new under the sun. But technology means that bad faith actors and conspiracy theorists are finding comfortable homes in social media and news media where a constant search for optimized niche content is the name of the game. “Everything is a conspiracy if you don’t understand how things work” is a filter we are just going to have to apply to talking heads, pundits, social media accounts, news outlets, and even our elected officials. From the plane & helicopter crash at Reagan National to RFK, Jr.’s senate confirmation hearing, properly discerning our times means cutting through the conspiratorial noise and getting to good information by pruning our information intake in times like these.
