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 reflects on the last three days of the RNC. At first, he thinks that the speeches were somewhat boring compared to the previous nominating conventions, but then he realizes that the movement is no longer externally radical — it is internal and calm. He also argues that there is a new spiritual allegiance to Trump following the assassination attempt and this has brought calls for unity, not unity towards both parties but unity behind Trump. Finally, Alex talks about how Biden had another bad day. He not only tested positive for COVID-19, but also is facing charges from Democrats like Adam Schiff to step down.
