It’s another Thanksgiving with COVID-19, but this time, vaccinations allow many Americans to gather together and share a hug and a meal.
Us & Them host Trey Kay invites his ‘virtual dinner party’ guests back for an anniversary. It’s a tradition we began last year – bringing together a wide ranging group to talk occasionally about the hot topics of the day. We talk politics and the 2020 election as well as the issues of election reform that continue to reverberate. COVID vaccinations and masks present some honest conversation.
This year we’ll see what kind of common ground there is at the table. It seems the more the dinner party guests talk with each other, the more they learn something that can help them see things more clearly and connect on different levels.
This episode of Us & Them is presented with support from the CRC Foundation and the West Virginia Humanities Council.

West Virginia is aging faster than the rest of the nation. More than 1 in 5 residents are over 65, and as young people leave the state, the gap between those who need care and those who can provide it keeps growing. At the same time, elder care has shifted from nursing homes to home-based support — but there aren’t enough workers to keep up. Us & Them explores the looming caregiving crisis and what it means for families, workers and the future of care.

Us & Them checks with an expert who reviews our nation’s crime data and sees inconsistent reporting and declines in major crime categories. This comes at a time when a poll shows the public is more worried about scams and school shootings than street crime.

Us & Them digs into why costs still outpace budgets — and how even manufactured homes, once a starter option, are slipping out of reach.
Continue Reading Take Me to More NewsThis episode of Us & Them first aired in 2023, and we’re sharing it again in the wake of the Sept. 10, 2025 assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA. President Donald Trump has credited Kirk’s organization with turning out young conservative voters in the 2024 election. Host Trey Kay talks with journalist Kyle Spencer about her book Raising Them Right and the decades-long conservative strategy to organize young voters, and with Abby Kiesa of Tufts University’s CIRCLE about what drives youth turnout. The conversation examines how campus organizing and money shape youth politics and where the system still falls short.
