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 gives some updates regarding the “Fox News Cabinet” that Trump is assembling like a sad excuse for the Avengers. He focuses on Dr. Oz who was picked to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Serivices. He also talks about Sean Duffy (a reality star and lumberjack) who was tapped to lead the Transportation Department, and much more. Alex also is fascinated by Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough heading to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump after calling him Hitler for years. For the remainder of the episode, Alex discusses what he calls the “Climate Emergency to Xenophobia Doom Loop.” He talks about how climate policy failures will lead to a larger migrant exodus from impacted countries, while at the same time, domestic policies will be radical and less welcoming. Alex worries that Trump will demogague this issue while ignoring the root issues.
