    Youngest ever N.C. House speaker talks about his priorities

    On this episode of Tying it Together, North Carolina’s new House Speaker Destin Hall joins host Tim Boyum for a wide-ranging discussion about his new role and working with a new governor. At just 37, he’s the state’s youngest speaker ever, and he’s not afraid to be frank. Speaker Hall also goes in depth with Tim on the major topics of today like Hurricane Helene relief, immigration and much more.  “If you’re here illegally and you’re committing crimes you gotta go,” he told Tim on the podcast. He added that being rules chair for almost five years with N.C. Sen. Phil Berger has helped him gain experience and respect in getting deals done. The podcast ends with Tim shooting a few fun questions at Speaker Hall.

    Gerrymandering: The ongoing fight for fair maps

    Attorney and former Democratic politician Wiley Nickel joins host Tim Boyum this week to talk about his time in Congress. Former congressman Nickel served as the U.S. representative for North Carolina’s 13th district from 2023 to 2025. He tells Tim why he was so concentrated on gerrymandering during that time. "Gerrymandering isn’t about the number of states, it’s about the number of districts carved up by politicians in each state," he said in one post. He also hints at a potential run for U.S. Senate in 2026.  Nickel wraps up by spending time talking about his childhood experience having a TV news reporter for a mom, and his work for Al Gore and Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns.

    2024: End of year extravaganza

    A Tying It Together tradition — Billy Warden and Brian Lewis join Tim for yet another hilarious, and somehow, informative, look at the year in politics and a look ahead to 2025.  Billy Warden, chief strategy officer with RLF Communications, also sings his annual parody Christmas song. Brian Lewis, founder of New Frame, gives us some insight into what 2024 might mean for 2025.  It’s always a fun to celebrate the holidays and year-end, especially after a rough-and-tumble election season.

    A spirited debate: Liberals, conservatives and you

    On this week’s episode, we have a spirited debate over the words liberal and conservative.  What does it mean to be liberal or conservative? Do those terms automatically connect to Democrat and Republican?  This debate started during a recent TV segment between Charlotte City Councilman Tariq Bokhari and former mayor pro tem Braxton Winston, who also ran for Labor Commissioner this year. Sit back with your new presents, a cup of coffee, and see how you fit — or don’t — into these widely used terms.

    Change in leadership: N.C. Senate Democrats see new head figure in Sen. Sydney Batch

    In a recent surprise, North Carolina Senate Democrats announced a new leader that was not Dan Blue. Sen. Sydney Batch will take his place next year after a decade of different leadership.  Sen. Batch joined host Tim Boyum to discuss her background in an incredibly successful family, working with her husband at their law firm, surviving breast cancer, and how she plans on leading Democrats much differently than her predecessor, and how she will get along with Sen. Phil Berger. “I have a lot to learn. I’m grateful to Sen. Blue to help guide me through this, and I have no doubt that Sen. Berger will let me know exactly how the trains stay on track,” she told Tim in the interview. Sen. Batch added she believes the state is much more purple than the legislature is made to believe due to gerrymandering. She believes in respectfully disagreeing and disputing where possible and standing up for her party’s values.
