In last night's episode of #MikeDrop, Mike discussed the reasons #MattGaetz and others would seek to prevent #KevinMcCarthy from becoming #SpeakerOfTheHouse.
In April 2020, Mike and his #Americanata co-host Gregory Rodriguez discussed Gaetz and whether image eclipsed agenda in American politics.
For those unfamiliar with the Americanata podcast, Mike and Gregory recorded 30 episodes focusing on a wide range of social issues. Here is the link to Episode 16: Is Matt Gaetz the Poster Boy for the Instagram Age?
Mike Madrid and Gregory Rodriguez ask whether appearances trump agenda in U.S. politics, whether Americans have entered the post-reality age, and whether emptiness leads to the death of empathy.
