This week, Brady handles how gun violence is a public health issue, and why diversity in research really, really matters. To do so, JJ is joined by Vice President of Policy at Brady, Christian Heyne, JP Thomas, Senior Program Manager at Brady, and Dr. Daniel Webster, the Bloomberg Professor of American Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Today, Daniel is here to discuss everything from the boyfriend loophole to John Hopkins' free course on gun violence prevention.

Then, in our "unbelievable, but" segment, JJ is talking about why you shouldn't test strange guns you find in malls (seriously, folks), followed by wrapping up our time together with a selection of gun violence, and gun violence prevention, news from this week...and then a very special message from JP.

• Reducing Gun Violence in America: Evidence for Change course
• Firearm Purchaser Licensing Teach-Out: The Background Check Policy Not Enough People Are Talking About course
