Hey folks,
I went live with Tiffany Carlock just minutes after the news broke that Charlie Kirk had been shot and killed at an event in Utah. We dropped everything else and tried to make sense of what just happened—and what it means for all of us living in a country that is increasingly experiencing political violence.
(00:01:15) — Breaking news confirmed: Charlie Kirk shot and killed at a campus event
(00:02:40) — A devastating moment that signals a pattern of growing political violence
(00:08:57) — Grappling with guns, mental health, and what “safety” even means in America anymore
(00:16:25) — Why this keeps happening, and why we feel powerless to stop it
(00:30:01) — The call to stay human, hold onto empathy, and refuse to meet hate with hate
This episode is heavy, so please be sure to take care of yourself.
With urgency,
—Mike
