In today's episode we delve into the world of celebrities and non-politicians who have thrown their hats into the political ring. We bring on Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, as our guest, as he shares insights from his past mayoral run in Boston and offers a unique perspective on the intersection of fame and politics. But that's not all— Billy Football also takes center stage as he gives us his own campaign for Congress and what he plans to do if he wins the election (taking it very seriously) From Portnoy's unconventional journey into municipal politics to Billy Football's grassroots congressional bid, this episode promises to be a thought-provoking exploration of celebrity activism, political ambition, and the evolving landscape of American democracy. Tune in as we navigate the highs and lows of celebrity candidates and the impact they have on our political discourse.
