Season 2, Episode 3: Beto on how to have fun in politics

Beto was here! We got him to play "two truths and a lie," give us his thoughts on the presidential race, and tell us about his new organization, Powered by People. Plus, he tells us how we can turn Texas blue and have fun doing it. (Shout out to Flip the TX House, an amazing org that was built by former Beto Ambassadors!)

THIS WEEK’S GUEST:

Beto O'Rourke - founder of Powered by People, former U.S. Representative from TX, former U.S. Presidential candidate, former U.S. Senate candidate, reason for many of Ted Cruz's gray hairs
