Guests - Linley Wilson, Elizabeth Weiss The last Friday of the election season's opening sprint on Winn Tucson covered three subjects that don't share a news cycle but share an underlying problem: institutions that are supposed to serve the public using their authority to serve something else instead. A county attorney who doesn't prosecute crimes suing the president. Three county governments clawing back a benefit from 100% disabled veterans after the legislature already gave it to them. And a federal law that was supposed to protect Native American artifacts being weaponized to exclude women from science, bury irreplaceable history, and empty museum collections for reasons that have more to do with money and activism than cultural preservation.

Guests - Dave Smith, Alex Kolodin, Tom Horne Thursday on Winn Tucson opened with justice being served on a man who published his own evidence and closed with a Polish-Jewish father whose love of history saved his family from the Holocaust. In between: a detailed accounting of the internecine Republican fight that is consuming time and resources during a critical election cycle, a secretary of state candidate with fresh data on Fontes's latest lies and protected voter data breach, and a Superintendent of Public Instruction who has a personal reason to believe history education is not optional.

Guests - Lisa Von Geldern, Kristen Pruett, Rick Shafton Monday, June 1st — five weeks to July 4th, three weeks until early ballots drop, and 51 days until the Arizona primary. Winn Tucson opened the week with three conversations that moved from the philosophical altitude of constitutional theory down to the ground-floor mechanics of how voters get lost in the system before they even cast a ballot. Then it closed with a political analyst who came prepared with fresh polling, a 28-point Texas blowout explanation, and a blunt autopsy of what Republican consultants are actually in it for.
