About this listen
Tempe is seeing a rare use of Arizona’s new fentanyl law: a 28-year-old alleged dealer has been charged after a fatal overdose. Local officials say it’s only the second case of its kind in the county — part of a tougher push to hold dealers accountable when their drugs kill.
Meanwhile, the Valley is mourning. Vigils and memorials have sprung up across Phoenix after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA. Whether you agreed with him or not, the outpouring of grief shows just how deeply his death is being felt here at home.
On the lighter side, Tempe’s Innings Festival just dropped a blockbuster lineup for 2026, Phoenix grocery stores are celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with fresh tortillas, and we’ll close with today’s fresh dad joke.
