Centered From Reality

Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.

  Bomb Oman, Befriend North Korea?

  Aug 18, 202610 min

  Alex takes a quick break from a dinner party to unpack what he sees as two of Trump’s latest foreign-policy headaches: scaling back military exercises with South Korea while cozying up to North Korea, and threatening Oman as the Iran conflict drags on. Between Trump’s “too late to cancel” excuse, threats to bomb a longtime U.S. partner, and a war looking increasingly like the “forever wars” he promised to end, Alex’s takeaway is pretty simple: the golden era is looking more than a little chaotic.

  Spain Is Burning, Men Are Angry (with María Tribe)

  Aug 15, 20261h 19m

  Alex is joined by María Tribe for a wide-ranging conversation about life in Spain, beginning with Maria’s firsthand experience of wildfires near Madrid and expanding into Spanish culture, immigration, politics, and the country’s complicated relationship with its past. They explore the growing appeal of figures like Andrew Tate, masculinity and the frustrations of young men, as well as the role religion, therapy, and personal accountability play in today’s culture. The conversation ultimately turns to Trump, political polarization, and the history and continuing appeal of fascism, including a deeper look at Franco and the Spanish Civil War.

  Episode #845

  Mammoths Corpses & Nazi Boats: Europe's Rivers Hit Historic Lows

  Aug 14, 202631 min

  Alex opens with casual updates on preseason football and pickleball before pivoting to a critique of the Senate's near-unanimous Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, warning that its tariff waiver provisions could hand Trump economic powers the Supreme Court had previously struck down. The episode's main focus shifts to Europe, where Alex explains that record-low water levels on the Rhine and Danube have uncovered a WWII-era motorcycle, mammoth remains, and a sunken fleet of Nazi warships. What starts as a quirky archaeological curiosity turns into a deeper dive into the drought's economic fallout — crippled nuclear cooling systems, factory slowdowns, soaring shipping costs, and centuries-old "hunger stones" resurfacing as ominous historical warnings. Alex closes by tying it back to broader instability, teasing future updates on Venezuela and Cuba.
