More details are emerging after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was fatally shot by Alec Baldwin on the set of his movie "Rust." Bandar Albuliwi, an independent filmmaker and friend of Hutchins, has started a petition to end the use of real firearms on set. 

“You can’t expect these crew members to put in 14 to 16 to 18-hour days, and then literally tell them, ‘You have to dodge a bullet that's being fired your way.’ It's absolutely ludicrous and this needs to end. Our below-the-line film crew members all around Hollywood have spoken, and they're demanding some serious change right now,” Albuliwi says.

Also, Joe Biden has appointed more judges to federal appeals courts than any president in the last 50 years, and many of them have backgrounds as public defenders. 

KCRW also looks at “United States of Insanity,” a new documentary about the Insane Clown Posse getting their fans off the FBI’s watchlist, and how brothers Eli and Payton Manning are transforming Monday Night Football through their new ESPN2 show.
