Shownotes

Dave Conley and Jerremy tackle America's gun violence epidemic, showing how urban youth, rural residents, and veterans face distinct threats. They favor targeted interventions over sweeping bans, stressing fixes for poverty and mental health. Highlighting just three universal U.S. gun laws, they advocate for enhanced education and training akin to driving or piloting licenses, plus community violence intervention programs and tougher rules to curb crime's roots.
