Episode Details

On the Heard Tell Podcast Chris Schlak of Young Voices and USA Today gives his first person perspective on the controversial and viral moments of CPAC Dallas. From the big names like former President Donald Trump and Hungarian PM Victor Orban to the vendors and attendees, Chris helps turn down the noise of the news headlines and narratives and get to what really happened in the room. For example, Chris gives the behind the scenes and full context of the Brandon Straka - Marjore Taylor Greene performance art of being in the cage, and how this went on for hours and was a part of attacking a sitting congressman. Also, Chris talks about conspiracy theories, how rampant they are, what ones are the most popular, and how much of CPAC crowd followed them out of ignorance or maliciousness. Chris also brings very insightful comments on the demographics of the attendees, the cost of CPAC, and the conservative organization that is eating into their attendence and business model. Plus, Chris talks about the philosophical and ideological changes in CPAC in recent years, and how his generation only knows a Trump-era GOP. All that and more with Chris Schlak on CPAC, on the edition of the Heard Tell Podcast.--------------------Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles? Email us HeardTellShow@gmail.com
