12/18/22: Trump's MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT, Elon bans reporters & Biden signs the Respect for Marriage Act

Welcome to the pilot episode of my new podcast that I'm hoping to start in earnest in the new year. The podcast will give me a chance to go over the top stories in politics from the week and then give people an idea of what to look forward to in the next week. This is a beta version of the podcast.

The Interpreter: Sharing a candidate's message w/ the deaf and hard of hearing

Mona Jean Cedar is a sign language interpreter who works at political events. I met her at a Beto O'Rourke rally in Los Angeles where she was on stage the entire time with the candidate.

The Politics of Local Government

Mayor Ryan Reynolds of Whitney Point, NY sat down with me to discuss what it's like to be involved in local government. We talked about everything from what his responsibilities are as a mayor, to the awkwardness of seeing past opponents in the local grocery store. I'll be amazed if this interview doesn't inspire you to want to get involved in local politics.
