The week in politics (June 26, 2024)

On Wednesday’s show: We preview this week’s presidential debate and discuss other developments in local, state, and national politics in our weekly roundup.

Also this hour: Kevin Costner’s new film Horizon: An American Saga opens in theaters Friday. It’s the first of four films, including another out later this summer. Film critic Joe Leydon, who recently interviewed Costner for Cowboys & Indians magazine, talks about the movie and where the Western genre is going.

And we visit the recent launch party for The Black Man Project, a local organization exploring the complexity of Black masculinity for men and boys.
