    Sep 16 2024
    We'd love to hear your thoughts on the podcast. Take the survey here or at wbur.org/survey. Police arrested Ryan Wesley Routh Sunday after what the FBI says was an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. The New York Times' Thomas Gibbons-Neff talks about interviewing with Routh last year. Then, after a student collapsed and died during physical education, an inspection found 170 defibrillators in Houston Public Schools that aren't working. Houston Public Media's Adam Zuvanich tells us more. And, images from the Californian coastal city of Rancho Palos Verdes show homes precariously close to collapsing into the Pacific Ocean. Los Angeles Times reporter Rosanna Xia joins us.
