Former political strategist Michael Fedor joins us for a captivating discussion on the crossroads of politics and storytelling. Having transitioned from teaching to a multifaceted political career, Michael shares his disillusionment with the political landscape and how it fueled his return to writing. His "Bull Moose" series offers readers an authentic glimpse into the machinations of political life, inspired by his own experiences navigating roles from elected official to campaign worker. Together, we examine the current political scene, touching on the dynamics involving figures like Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, and exploring how these dynamics influence national discourse.
Fast forward to 2044, where Michael's narrative envisions a fractured two-party system plagued by collusion, giving rise to the reform-focused Bull Moose Party. With protagonist Jackson Piper at the helm, we explore ambitious proposals such as a new Bill of Rights, campaign finance reforms, and national referendums, all set against a backdrop of political intrigue and high-stakes drama. This episode also tackles historical and contemporary issues like term limits and the hurdles faced by third parties in a predominantly two-party system, offering a thought-provoking exploration of potential political reforms and the role of AI in shaping future governance.
