Today on the show, host Jane C. Hu talks with writer and Seattle Public Schools parent Julie Letchner about her reporting that middle schoolers in the city’s public schools don’t have full-length books in their curriculum.

Then, Jane is joined by contributor Guy Oron, who has been covering the trial over nudity at Denny Blaine. The trial wrapped last week, and Guy gave an update on what the plaintiffs and defense had to say and what the potential outcomes might be ahead of the verdict.
