Both the Republican and Democratic parties are struggling to defend the political center against illiberal extremes. America must put forward policies that can reverse our political and governmental dysfunction, advance the social welfare of all citizens, combat climate change, and confront the other forces that threaten our common interests. The podcast focuses on current politics seen in the context of our nation's history and the personal biographies of the participants. It will highlight the policy initiatives of non-partisan think tanks and institutions, while drawing upon current academic scholarship and political literature from years past — including Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr.'s 1949 classic 'The Vital Center.' We welcome your thoughts on this episode and the podcast as a whole. Please send feedback or suggestions to vitalcenter@niskanencenter.org more

The conversations go behind the curtain with elected officials, campaign staff, journalists, academics, pundits, and political operatives. Every exchange is guided by standards central to the Center's mission: Respect each other and respect the truth. Opponents are adversaries, not enemies. And if you lose, don't burn down the stadium. more

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. more

Tired of partisan bullshit tearing America apart while politicians hide behind excuses and sacred cows get endless protection? Step into The MiddleGround Mic, the no-compromise centrist politics podcast that refuses to play nice with extremes. No Left. No Right. Forward. Hosted by Joseph Steagall, we deliver militant centrism at full throttle — ripping apart hypocrisy from every angle, calling out the nonsense on both sides, and hammering pragmatic, zero-BS fixes for the real fights: elections, foreign policy disasters, border security failures, economic meltdown, and community breakdowns in this fractured mess of a country. Regularly hitting the top 30 in U.S. News Commentary with over 750,000 downloads and rising fast, we bring raw, bipartisan truth from thought leaders, journalists, policymakers, and actual people — not scripted talking heads. This is the honesty, clarity, and politics without tribal loyalty that the mainstream media won't touch. Being MiddleGround or centrist isn't weakness or fence-sitting — it's being a straight-up warrior against the insanity of echo chambers, armed with facts and the spine to say what everyone else is too scared to. If you're independent, moderate, or just sick of the screaming on both ends, lock in for no-fluff episodes that cut through the noise, rebuild real trust, and force real progress.
