Cory Bryson is a Senior Policy Advisor to the Speaker Tim Moore.  However, the Gaston County native wasn't always so fortunate.  Cory was raised by his maternal grandparents, grew up eating food from a local church pantry, and struggling in school.  

In this heartfelt conversation, Cory takes listeners through his incredible life, including his enlistment in the U.S. Marines, how a decision to volunteer at the Gaston County Republican Party elevated him to one of the highest offices in North Carolina politics, and how met his wife Britt. 

Skye and Brian also talk about the aftermath of the abortion bill, 2024 governor's race polling and updates, the Growler, #TOTW, brunch, and the Coronation.  

The Do Politics Better podcast is sponsored by New Frame, the NC Travel Industry Association, the NC Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association, and the NC Pork Council.
