Morgan Jackson is one of the most powerful Democratic consultants in the state, with clients like Governor Roy Cooper, Attorney General Josh Stein and a number of presidential candidates over the years.

We will talk about current politics, but we'll also learn about Jackson's story, including why his life in politics was pretty much inevitable and what it was like growing up the son of a political consultant.  

We'll also talk about his time working with John Edwards and how he feels about everything that transpired. We ask him about the infamous Cal Cunninghum BBQ tweet and the controversial end of that 2020 U.S. Senate campaign. And finally, we'll find out why Willie Nelson has played such a vital role in his life.
