Recorded in January 2017, this show from the LaPolitics archives (episode 17 from season one) featured E.L. "Bubba" Henry, the former House speaker and Young Turks member who chaired the 1973 Constitutional Convention in Louisiana. Bubba discussed what life was like on the House floor during the late 1960s and 1970s, and he shared what he learned from running for governor. Does Louisiana need another constitutional convention? What was it really like to be commissioner of administration? Bubba dished on all of this, and much more. Plus, this episode kicked off with a blast-from-the-past audio clip from another Young Turk, the late John Hainkel (a former House speaker and Senate president), whose words helped frame this lively episode.

[Editor's note: This episode was recorded prior to the release of "The Last Constitution," and actually served as the inspiration for the book to come.]
