16: Made on the News

Send us a Text Message.

JJ and Christian are joined by Chris Hurst, a journalist, former news anchor, and politician of the Democratic Party currently serving as a Delegate in the Virginia House of Delegates for the state's 12th district. Chris decided to leave journalism and run for office after the on-air television murder of his girlfriend, Alison Parker, and her cameraman, Adam Ward. Since that day, Chris has worked on finding solutions for Virginians and Americans--be it on education, health care, the environment, or gun violence prevention. 

JJ and Christian also discuss what happens when people try to shoot guns indoors (you won't be shocked that it's covered in our "Unbelievable, BUT" section) and call out bipartisan legislators who are doing a great job of going across the aisle to help stop this epidemic of gun violence.
