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.

Beach rock legend and Margaritaville Tycoon, Jimmy Buffett, died on Friday night at the age of 76. Alex puts out his thoughts on how Buffett impacted his life and millions of others. Alex reflects on his night at a small bar where everyone came together around his death. He also argues that Buffett basically helped the average American feel content with checking out from their lives for a bit and acting like a true “beach bum.” Buffett made the Average Joe feel like everything was alright. For the rest of the episode, Alex talks about how intense rainfall on Friday night caused mud-like pools at the Burning Man Festival in Nevada. This weather event has stranded thousands at the event and many of its festivities have been postponed or cancelled.
