Show Notes

Not all deaths in the public sphere get the same level of response. Whether or not someone like Charlie Kirk should be remembered with large scale vigils or a moment of silence is a politically loaded question. Plus, the local news for Sept. 16, 2025, and a landfill controversy in a rural area of Tennessee.
