In our third special  birthday episode, host JJ is joined by Team Enough Executive Council members Aalayah Eastmond and Stephan Abrams. Together, all three discuss why the No Notoriety Campaign and organization, which is devoted to shifting attention from shooters to victims and survivors, is so important. Then, JJ sits down with Tom Teves to discuss how the Teves&apos; family created No Notoriety after their eldest son Alex was killed at the Aurora, Colorado, movie theater shooting in July of 2012 while shielding his girlfriend, Amanda. That shooting left 12 people dead and 70 injured, but in the long days of media coverage that followed, attention was largely focused on the profile of the shooter -- not on the acts of heroism done by people like Alex, or the lives of those tragically taken. Tom goes on to share  why the campaign is so important, and how individuals and news organizations can “minimize harm” while reporting on mass shootings.Mentioned in this podcast: Brady urges attention to the ongoing needs of survivors and affected families, not shooters (Brady)FBI to media: Don&apos;t name mass shooters (KSAT)Contagion in Mass Killings and School Shootings (PLOS One)A call to end the media coverage mass shooters want (Ted)Don’t Name Them, Don’t Show Them, But Report Everything Else: A Pragmatic Proposal for Denying Mass Killers the Attention They Seek and Deterring Future Offenders (American Behavioral Scientist)A version of this podcast initially ran as "A Matter of No Notoriety." For more information on Brady, follow us on social media @Bradybuzz or visit our website at bradyunited.org.Full transcripts and bibliographies of this episode are available at bradyunited.org/podcast.National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.Music provided by: David “Drumcrazie” CurbySpecial thanks to Hogan Lovells for their long-standing legal support℗&©2019 Red, Blue, and BradySupport the show (https://www.bradyunited.org/donate)

153: Uplifting Survivors and Victims, Not Perpetrators

In our second special  birthday episode, host JJ is joined by Joan Peterson, a longtime Brady chapter member and leader, who became a gun violence prevention and domestic violence activist after her sister, Barbara Lund, was murdered. Barbara and her boyfriend, former Iowa state legislator Kevin Kelly, were killed by Lund&apos;s estranged husband. Together, they detail why domestic violence cannot be left invisible. Then, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by Kate Ranta (author of Killing Kate: A Story of Turning Abuse and Tragedy into Transformation and Triumph and gun violence prevention advocate) and American journalist, writer, and professor Rachel Louise Snyder. Snyder&apos;s eye-opening book, No Visible Bruises: What We Don&apos;t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us, is an absolutely essential read for those who want to address private violence, and addresses how in the US, 1 in 5 women report experiencing severe physical violence from an intimate partner during their lifetime. Terrifyingly, when guns are introduced into that terrorism, the risk of serious death and injury only increases, with the American Journal of Public Health reporting that in domestic violence situations the risk of death is five times greater when a gun is present. If you or someone you know may be at risk, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233), or by text at the same number by texting the word "START." There are also advocates available online 24/7 at thehotline.org. Mentioned in this podcast:Warning Signs of Abuse (National Domestic Violence Hotline)Domestic Violence High Risk Team Model (Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center)What Are Extreme Risk Laws (Brady) Pass the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2021 (Brady) A version of this podcast initially ran as "What We Don&apos;t Know About Domestic Violence (and Guns) is Deadly."For more information on Brady, follow us on social media @Bradybuzz or visit our website at bradyunited.org.Full transcripts and bibliographies of this episode are available at bradyunited.org/podcast.National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.Music provided by: David “Drumcrazie” CurbySpecial thanks to Hogan Lovells for their long-standing legal support℗&©2019 Red, Blue, and BradySupport the show (https://www.bradyunited.org/donate)

152: The More We Share, the More We Know: Domestic Violence and Firearms

In this special birthday episode, Legal Counsel and Director of Programs Joshua Scharff details why he thinks so-called "gun truthers" — hoaxers —are deeply troubling, by while reviewing a past episode with Fred Guttenberg and Andy Parker. In this episode, host JJ is also joined by Fred Guttenberg and Andy Parker, two fathers who, after losing their beloved daughters Jaime and Alison to gun violence, have been repeatedly attacked by these so-called “truthers." So-called "gun truthers" — hoaxers — believe that mass killings such as the one at Sandy Hook are government-run plots designed to gin up support for restrictive gun laws, among other things. Some of these individuals even believe such massacres to be entirely fictitious productions in which no one involved is hurt, let alone killed; actors, they will tell you, masquerade as the victims, friends, and grieving kin the country sees in the news.A version of this podcast initially ran as "The Danger of Hoaxers and "Alternate Truths": Rep.

151: There Are No "Alternative Facts"

How can we have better conversations with those we disagree with -- or, at the very least, think we disagree with? How can gun owners and non-gun owners, all of whom support gun violence prevention, bridge the gaps in their understanding? And, at the end of the day, how do we let people know we love them?To answer all these questions and more, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by hosts of podcast Tactical American Conversations,  Remmington Campbell and Chase Williams. Together, we break down common missteps and misconceptions in conversation, as well as how to better communicate with one another. Mentioned in this podcast:The TAC Team Story (TAC)How To Have Civil Conversations (Forbes) How To Talk Politics Without Letting Things Turn Ugly (NPR)21 Americans With Opposing Views on Guns Sat Down to Talk to Each Other.

150: The Importance of Conversation (and Pizza)

Private planes. Thousand dollar suits. Yachts. Russian spies. And a lie -- that the solution to gun violence was just "a good guy with a gun."A one time nonprofit group meant to encourage marksmanship and sports shooting, by the new millennium the National Rifle Association (NRA) had become "a powerful lobbyist organization that maintained an iron hold on gun legislation in America." And at the head of that changed organization sits CEO Wayne LaPierre, a man who has remained the NRA&apos;s figurehead despite decades of mismanagement and corruption. In this episode, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by journalist Tim Mak, who spent over four years investigating the NRA, including but not limited to the dissolution of their relationship with marketing firm Ackerman-McQueen, the NRA&apos;s involvement with Russian spies, and gross money mismanagement by top NRA officials. All is revealed in Mak&apos;s new book, Misfire: Inside the Downfall of the NRA.

150: Going Inside the Downfall of the NRA with Misfire

Journalist Wendi Winters was only 65 when she was killed when a gunman attacked the offices of the Capital Gazette on June 28, 2018.  It was one of the deadliest attacks on journalists in American history. In the days that followed, stories of Wendi&apos;s heroism spread -- not just her actions in charging the shooter to protect her colleagues -- but her lifetime of service to her family and community. Wendi left behind four children, the youngest of which is Summerleigh Winters Geimer. Summerleigh has taken her activism to tiktok, where she has posted videos about dealing with grief, the trial, gun violence, and  gun violence prevention efforts. In this episode, host JJ was able to sit down with Summerleigh to talk about her mom, common misconceptions about gun violence, and why gun violence is just so unfair. Mentioned in this podcast:Capital Gazette journalist Wendi Winters posthumously awarded Carnegie Medal for heroism during newsroom shooting (Capital Gazette)Survived By: One Year After the Capital Gazette Shooting (WUSA9)The &apos;Capital Gazette&apos; Gunman&apos;s Trial Began Today.

149: Showing Up for Wendi Winters

In the past 50 years, the National Rifle Association (NRA) evolved from being a nonpartisan hunting and sport shooting enthusiasts’ organization to a political and lobbying powerhouse. The NRA&apos;s work has had a huge impact on not just American gun culture, but on American policy and legislation related to gun violence prevention.  To trace that evolution, and it&apos;s impact,  hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by a beloved friend of the pod, gun violence prevention advocate (and father of Jesse and Jaime) Fred Guttenberg, as well as a new friend -- award-winning director and producer Judd Ehrlich of Flatbush Pictures. Together, we discuss Judd&apos;s newest film, the Price of Freedom, which explores the role the NRA and the gun lobby has had in America’s gun violence epidemic. Listeners can tune into the film this Sunday (9/19) at 9pm ET/6pm PDT on CNN, followed by a roundtable with Fred and other folks in the film, anchored by CNN’s Chris Cuomo.

148: The NRA and the Price of Freedom

Though only 35, Scott Beigel left a lasting legacy with the thousands of children he directly impacted as a beloved teacher, cross country coach, and camp counselor, one who perpetually "made school fun." Yet, in very "Scott fashion," he had made it clear before his death that he never wanted to be thought of as a hero. Nevertheless, Scott was already a humble hero to many when he was murdered in February 14, 2018 during the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida.  Scott had broken protocol and was ushering students in the hall to safety, ultimately getting over 20 students into his room.    To celebrate Scott&apos;s life, his family and friends have since worked tirelessly to honor one of the things Scott loved most -- camp! -- and to prevent gun violence with work like the Scott J. Beigel Unfinished Receiver Act . To speak on Scott&apos;s amazing life, and all of the efforts in his memory done by the Scott Beigel Memorial Fund, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by Scott&apos;s mom, the amazing  Linda Beigel Schulman.  Mentioned in this podcast:Parkland teacher Scott Beigel died saving students.

147: Honoring Coach Beigel with Action -- and Summer Camp

Early in the afternoon on April 16, 2017 -- Easter Sunday -- 74 year old Robert Godwin Sr. went out to collect cans in the Glenville neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. Shortly after beginning his routine walk home, Robert was confronted, shot, and murdered by a stranger. Compounding on the senseless horror, the shooter filmed and livestreamed the murder, uploading the footage to Facebook. Robert left behind 10 children, 14 grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren, who were left to deal not just with the loss of their loved one, but with the trauma of a media storm.To discuss the process of surviving after gun violence, the reality of dealing with trauma, and how everyone can be a better support system to those in their lives experiencing grief, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by three of Robert&apos;s children -- 911 operator Malisa Godwin, author and nurse Tanya R.

146: On Survivors Surviving

Kris West, a firearms instructor and gun safety advocate, returns to the podcast to join hosts Kelly and JJ for a conversation on concealed carry (the practice of carrying a firearm in public in a concealed manner): namely,  why some folks might practice concealed carry, and how people, particularly those working to prevent gun violence,  can better understand concealed carry and those who practice it. Mentioned in this podcast:3 Million Americans Carry Loaded Handguns Every Day, Study Finds (the Trace)Frequently Asked Questions on Concealed Carry (ATF)Ghost Guns are Threats to Communities (Brady, Team Enough)For more information on Brady, follow us on social media @Bradybuzz or visit our website at bradyunited.org. Full transcripts and bibliographies of this episode are available at bradyunited.org/podcast. National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255. Music provided by: David “Drumcrazie” CurbySpecial thanks to Hogan Lovells for their long-standing legal support ℗&©2019 Red, Blue, and BradySupport the show (https://www.bradyunited.org/donate)

145: Revealing a Concealed-Carry Conversation

Black and brown communities impacted by gun violence have been fighting for their own gun violence interventions for decades, with thousands of unknown advocates dedicating themselves to community-focused solutions. These community activists often work tirelessly to end gun violence, despite outsiders often misunderstanding both gun violence at a local level and the communities efforts to end the epidemic. To find out how community activism often works, how to get better involved, and how to better frame conversations about gun violence, more broadly, hosts Kelly and JJ are joined by the great Kayla Hicks. Ms. Hicks is the founder, President, and CEO of the Sustain Equity Group, whose aim is to support the development and advancement of Black women as leaders in violence prevention. Together, they discuss how to better empower individuals and communities, how to take on systemic inequality, and how to have better conversations about firearms and gun violence.

Gun violence in America never takes a vacation, unfortunately, but Kelly and JJ sometimes do -- which is why today&apos;s episode is straight from the vault! Consistently ranked as a favorite by our listeners, Kirsten Englund&apos;s story did not end with her murder at the hands of a disturbed man wielding an illegally-purchased firearm; Brady&apos;s legal team would not allow it.

143: Kirsten Englund and the Fight Against Straw Purchases

Gun ownership in the US has changed, and with it, how that ownership is viewed and studied. One person studying those changes -- and a participant in them -- is sociologist and gun owner Dr. David Yamane. Dr. Yamane, author of the book Concealed Carry Revolution: Expanding the Right to Bear Arms in America and the blogs Gun Culture 2.0 and Gun Curious, joined hosts Kelly and JJ to discuss what he (and Michael Bane) call Gun Culture 2.0 -- namely, the emerging trend where individuals don&apos;t enter gun culture through hunting, military service, or family tradition, but out of personal defense concerns.  Mentioned in this podcast: Gun Culture 2.0, or How a Liberal Professor Became an Armed American (Gun Culture 2.0) Guns Are Normal, Normal People Use Guns (Gun Culture 2.0)Gun Culture 2.0: The Sociology of the Great Gun-Buying Spree of 2020 (Policy Punchline)"The sociology of US gun culture."

142: Gun Culture 2.0

The part firearms have played in the story of the United States is far greater than any mere chronicling of all things Second Amendment could hope to reveal, as historian and author Dr. Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz explains in her book "Loaded: A Disarming History of the Second Amendment." Together with  hosts Kelly and JJ,  Dunbar-Ortiz discusses the origins and intents of firearm legislation before and after the Second&apos;s codification, plus many of the goals and purposes, mundane and otherwise, that generations of Americans have pursued through the use of the weapons these laws impact -- and, thornily, how those generations have, consciously or not, not only held gun ownership up as a celebrated American right, but enshrined it as an essential, even sacred, element of an American identity awash since its beginnings in the blood and misery of racist acts and expansionist policies.Mentioned in this podcast:The Brutal Origins of Gun Rights (the New Republic) Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz: “The Second Amendment is Almost a Time Bomb That Was Planted in the Constitution” (Williamette Week) The Second Amendment is racist at its root (the Christian Century)Help support the podcast and Brady&apos;s mission by clicking here!For more information on Brady, follow us on social media @Bradybuzz or visit our website at bradyunited.org.Full transcripts and bibliographies of this episode are available at bradyunited.org/podcast.National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255. Music provided by: David “Drumcrazie” CurbySpecial thanks to Hogan Lovells for their long-standing legal support ℗&©2019 Red, Blue, and BradySupport the show (https://www.bradyunited.org/donate)

141: A Disarming History of the Second Amendment

Many Americans have long regarded the Second Amendment as a particularly bright example of their nation&apos;s dedication to the principles of liberty; the right to own and use firearms is often tied closely in our culture to the preservation and enjoyment of other freedoms, such as speech and religion, which are so linked to the very idea of the United States that thinking of one immediately conjures up the other. However, not everyone throughout our history has seen the gun as a symbol of something noble, and today, to discuss how these differing perspectives connect to the Second Amendment and its complex cultural legacy, hosts Kelly and JJ welcome Dr. Carol Anderson, a historian and New York Times best-selling author whose new book -- "The Second: Race and Guns in a Fatally Unequal America" -- explores the narrative tapestry that Americans past and present have woven around these weapons and their role in our republic.Mentioned in this podcast:America’s gun obsession is rooted in slavery (the Guardian)The Second Amendment is not about guns -- it&apos;s about anti-Blackness, a new book argues (CNN) Historian Uncovers The Racist Roots Of The 2nd Amendment (NPR)Was the Constitutional Right to Bear Arms Designed to Protect Slavery?
