Cross-Party Friendship & Learning at the NC Institute of Political Leadership

Sen. Amy Galey is an Alamance County Republican and Leonardo Williams is a Durham City Council Democrat.  However, the two found friendship and leadership growth from the NC Institute of Political Leadership.  

They are joined by NC IOPL Executive Director Brad Young to talk about the political training program, its preparation for candidates for elected office, and why it's designed to throw all political philosophies into one cohort to produce NC's future political leaders.  Applications for the fall NC IOPL cohort are open until August 24.  

Plus, Skye and Brian are reunited after two weeks of staggered vacations and they cover the latest in NC polling, a complaint about where a senatorial candidate lives, the latest on the state's abortion law, and more.  

The Do Politics Better podcast is sponsored by New Frame, the NC Travel Industry Association, and the NC Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association.
