Reload Founder Stephen Gutowski joined the Megyn Kelly show for a wide-ranging discussion on gun politics Wednesday.
He joined Mike Spies, a senior writer at The Trace, for a two-hour conversation on the prevailing controversies surrounding guns in America. The pair talked about how current gun laws are supposed to prevent criminals from getting guns, how they fail, and ways they could be fixed.
The show takes a long-form and serious approach to discussing the problems of gun violence. Gutowski and Spies debate over regulation of gun stores, universal background checks, AR-15s, smart guns, and community violence interruption programs. The two men, who have spent years covering gun news, debated the different approaches to solving issues of gun violence.
The full episode can be seen on The Megyn Kelly Show’s YouTube channel. You can also listen to the entire episode on Megyn Kelly’s podcast.
Clips from the show are also available on the channel. The first features a debate over whether gun laws stop criminals from getting guns. The second deals with the controversy over the popular AR-15 rifle. The third video has Gutowski and Spies weigh in on “smart guns” and whether they could be a solution to gun violence.

I just watched your discussion on the Megyn Kelly show and it was to the point(s), logical, and very informative. There would be a lot less hysteria on the subject of gun control (and probably some concrete steps to actually do something that was effective) if the debate was conducted in this manner instead of the hyper partisan ranting that passes for discussion these days. The $70 membership is worth every penny. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words, Jim. That’s what I’m trying to accomplish with The Reload. I want this to be a place for sober and thoughtful coverage of guns. I do my best to bring that approach with me when I’m representing The Reload at other publications as well.
