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.

In this episode, Alex starts by pondering why it is so hard for Republicans to pronounce Kamala Harris’ name correctly. Then he gets into a new election law that was put fourth by Georgia’s Electoral Board in September. While it is not legally wrong, it could delay some counting of total ballots that could provide adequate time for election deniers to spew disinformation. Trump thrives in chaos and Alex worries if this eleventh hour change could bring said chaos. Finally, Alex talks about Hurricane Helene and breaks down the extent of damage and tragedy brought to the southeast by the storm. He talks about the failures of requiring flood insurance in most of the regions impacted, how this storm could impact voting in NW North Carolina, and more.
