In this episode, Alex shares his thoughts on Kevin McCarthy finally getting the role of House Speaker after 15 votes. Then rants, raves, and roasts about McCarthy due to all the concessions he made to become the speaker. Basically, McCarthy gave away all of his power and will be a hostage to the far-right.

Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.
