Candidate Interviews
I didn’t realize how much we needed a discussion of Valley issues until I skeptically listened to this podcast. I’m addicted to the candidate interviews. The most revealing ones catch them early in their campaigns. When they have not polished their talking points. Al’s political neutral tone, thoughtful questions and patient listening often lead to unguarded responses that raise your eyebrows. Here are three I especially liked:
Most Entertaining: Stephanie Olsen
Most Frightening: MJ Bolt
Most Reassuring: Vicky Dalton
I’m looking forward to an interview with Natasha Hill. CMR’s next Democratic challenger.
