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 is fired up. He is tired of election text messages from Sam Brown in Nevada and GOTV people showing up at his house early on weekends. He also learns that Des Moines, Iowa, hasn’t Trick-R-Treated since 1938, and instead the kids have gone the night before. However, weather forced the town to allow the kids to go out on Halloween once again. For the rest of the episode, Alex talks about Elon Musks’s potentially illegal monetary involvement in the elections happening in swing states. He also talks about how the FTC chair, Lina Khan, has become a polarizing figure in the Democratic Party and helps highlight the divide between the left and the center. He wonders if this could impact the election.
