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In this episode, Alex talks about the breakdown in Haiti after another Prime Minster has been replaced by Haiti's transitional presidential council (TPC). Alex talks about how the TPC, which is mainly driven by external influence, faces threats from unified gangs in Haiti that want a seat at the table of a new government. Alex also talks about the recent grounding of American airlines to Haiti after three airlines were fired on yesterday after trying to land in Haiti’s capitol. Finally, Alex looks at Trump’s recent cabinet picks, the Associated Press notes that “In the last few hours, Trump has announced John Ratcliffe as CIA Director, Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense and Kristi Noem as head of Homeland Security.” Alex hopes this is a joke, but knows that this is very well not one.
