Hello, I'm Joe Brand and I'm annoyed.

The unacceptable levels of homelessness this Christmas are no joke.

As the cost of living soars, people are being pushed out of their homes into temporary accommodation and onto freezing streets.

Crisis at Christmas offers a hot meal, health care and help with a place to stay.

The start of year-round specialist support.

This Christmas I'm standing with crisis. Join me.

Search crisis at Christmas and donate 29 pounds and 7 pence today. Thank you.

A couple months back, this show called PBD podcast dedicated a whole two hours

to bantering back and forth with a person who at the time I had never heard of.

Gentlemen, we're live.

Gentlemen and a lady, we have here David. Their guest was a woman named Christina Pushaw.

Yes, we got Governor Ron DeSantis's Press Secretary.

Christina Pushaw here with us. Thank you for making a time for being here.

And thank you so much for having me here.

Christina Pushaw had been working for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for less than a year at the time of this recording.

And let me just say it's a little weird for a Governor's press flag to end up as the subject of an extended interview in the first place.

Usually, being a press secretary means working behind the scenes,

being someone who gently nudges a politician in front of a microphone or cleans up their verbal snafu's.

But it's clear, listening to Pushaw, she sees her job a little differently.

How much leeway do you have? Meaning, you know, you have to represent them.

How much you say, listen, I trust you just do your thing.

You know, we've talked about this or it's like stick to the script.
