This is an IHeart podcast.

Hey, everybody. Happy Saturday. Chuck here with the Selects pick for the week. And this week,

it's a pretty heavy one, everyone. This is about rape kits. And the episode is How Rape Kits

work. And this is from April 2, 2019. And the reason that I chose the select is because it's just a super important topic

about the funding of rape kits, the lack of funding rather for rape kits, and the backlog

of processing rape kits. And it's something that should be known far and wide, so that's why

I picked it for this week's episode.

I'm Josh Clark.

There's Charles W. Chuck Bryant.

There's Jerry over there.

No. It's not like we do that anyway. Right. Like, this would be a good place for a joke. Let me get our writers on it. Insert joke here in brackets.

Yes, obviously, I mean, if you saw the title about rape kits, hopefully that is the

trigger warning you need, but we might as well just say it out loud.

A trigger warning for this one.

That's all we need to say, I think, right?

Pretty much.

I mean, we're talking about rape sexual assault
