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 breaks down Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s bizarre sponsored road trip series and why critics are calling it one of the most tone-deaf stories of Trump 2.0. From nonprofit funding tied to major transportation corporations to the glaring irony of celebrating America’s national parks while protections and funding for public lands are being cut, the episode explores how governing increasingly feels like influencer content. Alex unpacks the ethics concerns, political hypocrisy, and growing disconnect between Washington spectacle and everyday Americans struggling with rising costs.
