Your Heard Tell Show is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by talking about the reactions of folks in news media and social media to the Donald Trump verdict in his New York City business records case. Next, the Caitlin Clark coverage as the woman's basketball star transitions from college to the WNBA has become new ground for the unholy union of political/cultural content creators and the always loud sports media world, which means the actual issues like gender, sports, race, and other things are being co-opted by the bad faith grifters when they need to be seriously discussed. Host Andrew talks about the 80th anniversary of D-Day with a personal story from when he was at the 60th anniversary in London in 2004. Plus, India has gone to the polls and elected PM Modi to a third term, and India's rising place in the world politically, culturally, and economically is something to pay attention to. We end on a good note of a young family whose days-old little girl was not only saved by a quick thinking state trooper, but revealed to have much more going on than just an onset of a medical emergency.
