The Man Who Counts Every Shooting in America

Warning: this episode contains descriptions of violence

In 2023, the unrelenting epidemic of gun violence in the United States has claimed the lives of more than 41,000 people. Throughout the year, each and every one of those shootings was chronicled by a website that has become the most authoritative and widely-cited source of data about gun deaths in the country: the Gun Violence Archive.

Mark Bryant, the founder of the database, explains why he has dedicated so much of his life to painstakingly recording a problem with no end in sight.

Guest: Mark Bryant, the founder of the Gun Violence Archive.
