For their fourth episode of the Iowa caucus season, the crew sits down with former Obama Administration cabinet official, Julián Castro for an in-depth discussion about his candidacy for president. The live-recorded event took place at the historic Mill Restaurant and Bar in Iowa City in front of a capacity crowd. The conversation covered Secretary Castro’s views on immigration reform, his decision to prominently display the accent mark in his name on his campaign material, and how he plans to break through a crowded field of talented candidates. The show was opened up by a performance from award-winning poet, Steven Willis and an interview with Crissy Canganelli, the Executive Director of the Shelter House, an organization working to implement a “housing first,” strategy to end chronic homelessness.
