The Mad Centrist - The political podcast for the rest of us.

The MAD Centrist – named after the Kurt Vonnegut quote from The Monkey House, “A sane person to an insane society must appear insane.”

Every 4 years at least one new Vice Presidential hopeful is introduced to the nation.  Every 4 years a pretty horrible job is usually done with that as well.

In 2024 we have the pleasure of meeting two new VP candidates.

This is a Mad Centrist introduction to Governor Tim Walz.  Hold on tight, let's dig in!
