"Follow the money" Explains Sports and Politics
One of our principles on Heard Tell when covering politics & culture is “follow the money” since that’s the closest you usually can get to the truth in a world that is all about image, branding, and marketing. But the same increasingly applies to sports, and with sports media and political media both chasing the content economy the two genres have more in common than not. Our friend Dave Van de Walle of the Vandy program and a long-time marketing and sports professional joins us to talk about it all on this episode of Heard Tell.

America 250 w/Englishman Ben Harris: Part Two
<p>Talking America 250 (Part 2). The conversation turns stateside as Ben Harris, an Englishman with a serious soft spot for America but experienced working in the UK Parliament, walks through his viral essay on American exceptionalism: freedom, abundance, and the strange magic of a country built on ideals instead of blood and soil. Andrew and Ben talk grocery store abundance vs. European scarcity, why American diversity actually works when almost nowhere else's does, and why unaccountable government and corruption, not ideology, are the real threats to what makes America work. They close out with some real optimism about the next generation, a few digs at UK politics (RIP Andy Burnham's honeymoon), and a proper 4th of July toast to the great, imperfect, ridiculous, beautiful experiment that is America.</p><p>Watch the<a href="https://heardtell.substack.com/p/talking-america-250-wenglishman-ben?r=17xga" rel="nofollow"> full video here</a>:</p><p>https://open.substack.com/pub/heardtell/p/the-economy-but-in-plain-language?r=17xga&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true</p><p>--------------------</p><p><a href="https://app.redcircle.com/shows/4b87f374-cace-44ea-960c-30f9bf37bcff/ep/heardtell.substack.com" rel="nofollow">Heard Tell SubStack</a> Free to subscribe, comes right to your inbox</p><p><a href="https://www.heardtellmedia.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.heardtellmedia.com</a></p><p>Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles?

America 250 w/Englishman Ben Harris Part One
For the 4th of July and reviving an old tradition, Host Andrew sits down with our man in Westminster, Ben Harris, for the 4th of July episode. Ben (soccer jersey and all) breaks down why Britain can't build anything due to a planning system where NIMBYs hold veto power over housing, energy, even supermarkets, and how an entire generation of young Brits is getting crushed by it. They dig into the UK's revolving door of PMs, the "triple lock" pension time bomb, Starmer's political faceplant over winter fuel payments, the differences in free speech in the UK and America, structural issues and how politics not only can't fix them but makes the situation worse. Plus how the UK's issues connect back to America: same structural rot, just a bigger economy buying us time. If you want to understand why the UK feels stuck, and how America needs to pay attention to avoid the same traps, Ben Harris and Andrew Donaldson lay it out and more on Heard Tell Watch the full video here: https://open.substack.com/pub/heardtell/p/the-economy-but-in-plain-language?r=17xga&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true -------------------- Heard Tell SubStack Free to subscribe, comes right to your inbox https://www.heardtellmedia.com Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles?
