We're excited to share with you a show we love, Choice Words with Samantha Bee. In this episode, Congressman Maxwell Frost joins Sam to talk about what it’s like to be the first member of Gen Z in Congress, and why it’s so important for Democrats to choose to see themselves as the opposition party, not the minority party. They talk about how to make decisions that impact millions of people and why the Kennedy Center coup was more significant than people think, and that he has been reading a lot about Elon Musk because it’s important to know your enemies. Sam learns that Congressman Frost is a “no notifications guy,” that he subscribes to even more newsletters than she does, and that the phone calls to Congress are actually working.  To get more episodes, follow Choice Words wherever you get your podcasts or head here: https://lemonada.lnk.to/choicewordsfdSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
