Today's episode begins by Cassandra providing an overview of what she and her colleagues research at the center for Gun Violence Solutions at Johns Hopkins University. Shortly after, I inquire about what measures may work to decrease gun violence. Soon after we discuss the importance of defining what exactly is being put on the table. I later ask for Cassandra's thoughts on what role politicians, prosecutors and pop culture icons play. Towards the end of the episode we give our thoughts on high risk intervention laws regarding gun owners. I hope you enjoy.
