Hi, believe listeners. I know it's been a while, but we're coming to you with a new NPR show we think you might like.

Like believed, it's a deep dive into a topic that's been in the news, but in this case, it's guns.

I'm Chris Haxel, a reporter with KCUR in Kansas City.

out his phone to go live on Facebook. Guys, we have a telling you what a bunch of arrogant bastards

these people are for a very long time. But this is true. Aaron, you'll remember, is the oldest

door brother. He runs Gunnwright's Groups in Iowa, Wyoming, and New York. And this video is from

Missouri. It's from January 2020. Now, we've been reporting on these guys for more than a year.
