Behind-the-Scenes of Speaker Vote Chaos, Damar Hamlin & NFL Issues w/ Eric Garcia & Brandon Phoenix

Your Heard Tell for Wednesday, January 4th, 2022, is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by talking to The Independent's Senior Washington Correspondent Eric Garcia who takes us behind-the-scenes of the current chaos in congress as round after round of voting fails to elect a Speaker of the House for the new GOP majority, explains the players invovled, the stories we are missing while focused on Kevin McCarthy, what it means for the new Democrat minority and their leader Hakeem Jefferies, who is Chip Roy, and how do you cover a congress like we've never seen before. Also, Brandon Phoenix of the Raspy Voice Kids podcast joins Heard Tell to talk about the reaction and fallout to Damar Hamlin's horrific collapse during Monday Night Football, how it fits into the ongoing debate over the safety of the game, how the NFL's juggernant business side needs to reconcile with player safety and public perception, how CPR and AEDs save lives, and more. 

All that and more on this Thursday edition of Heard Tell.
