Weird election night in North Carolina. Trump won, as did Republican judges. But at the same time Democrats won every major executive branch race (governor, AG, superintendent of schools), the only competitive US House race, and even broke the GOP supermajority in the legislature

Logging back on here to say that I was one of the people laid off yesterday. I am so proud of the work we did at @NerdettePodcast and we hope to find it a new home. In the meantime, I'm a soup to nuts producer looking for new opportunities

I haven't lived in Nashville for ~7 years but hit subscribe so fast because I want more Emily in my inbox no matter what the topic is. (But also Nashville news stays wild, never change)

This week, @GraceTatter finished TWO marathons: Philadelphia 🏃♀️ and... "The Gun Machine," an 8-part podcast series on the history of the guns in America. HUGE congrats to her, and to host @AlainStephens, who leaves it all on the field in both information and emotion. (1 of 2)

NEW: @ATFHQ is supposed to regulate the gun industry and protect the American public from gun crime. But the agency often falls short of that mandate.
@AlainStephens explains why this is no accident in the latest episode of The Gun Machine with @WBUR: thetr.ac/HhYRE

Samuel Colt’s greatest invention was not his revolver — but how he marketed it.
That playbook is something gunmakers still use today, @AlainStephens and @GraceTatter report in the latest episode of “The Gun Machine.”

I spent the past year on a series about how the U.S. was forged by the gun industry. Manufacturing & military might, our obsessions with Westerns, all go back to guns. And we're all invested. @AlainStephens & I dig into the Wild West in Ep 3, out today! wbur.org/podcasts/short-run

Amazon is postponing much of HQ2 in Arlington VA and many of its new hires there are still working largely remote, yet it's about to collect its first tranch of $152 million in taxpayer subsidies from the state of Virginia. @teoarmus:
