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 reacts to the TikTok sensation that is Gail Lewis, the Walmart employee from Illinois that signed off after ten years of duty. Alex genuinely enjoys this video and talks about why it actually is what America needs right now. Next, Alex takes a deep dive into Henry Kissinger, who died at the age of 100 on Wednesday night. He argues that Kissinger was a complicated and (maybe) morally corrupt figure that was highly involved in almost every layer of the Cold War. Finally, Alex talks about a fascinating situation unfolding on the Finnish-Russian border. The Finnish government has shut down the border for two weeks due to fears of Russia sending migrants and asylum seekers into Finland to cause political instability. Finland is the latest country to join NATO.
