Show notes
In this installment of Best Of The Gist, we're listening back to Mike's 2018 interview with Jimmy Carter's once Chief Domestic Policy Advisor, Stuart Eizenstat. Though he was sometimes mischaracterized as an ineffective President, Eizenstat argues that Carter fought for America's energy independence, doubled the size of the national park system, and appointed "more minorities and women to judgeships and senior positions than all 38 presidents before him put together." Eizenstat's book is President Carter: The White House Years. Then we listen back to Mike's Tuesday Spiel about the media, which, he argues, must occasionally upset the audience.
