Welcome to "People, Politics and Pork: Keep it Spinning!" Dive into the whirlwind world of Triple P with hosts Newell Clark and Greg Webb, two lifelong friends with a knack for storytelling and a love for all things intriguing.
From the heart of Lexington, North Carolina, Mayor Newell Clark brings a progressive spirit and a wealth of experience in politics and community leadership. His boundless energy and fresh perspective promise engaging discussions on everything from local initiatives to statewide policies.
Meanwhile, Greg Webb, our modern-day Forrest Gump, adds a dash of Southern charm and a touch of showbiz flair. From Hollywood to North Alabama and back again, Greg's journey through acting, writing, and managing a flea market brings a unique blend of wit and wisdom to the mic.
This week on the Triple P podcast, Newell and Greg are delighted to welcome Senator Ted Budd, a close friend of Newell's and a key figure bringing the "Middle P" of politics to the show.
Senator Budd's journey into politics began with encouragement from a friend, leading to a successful primary race victory with 20% of the vote. Redistricting challenges after reelection added complexity to his campaigns, highlighting the dynamic nature of political landscapes. Serving in the House demands a delicate balance between governance and frequent campaigning, given the nature of 2-year terms.
As a Senator, Budd's role on four committees, including Armed Services due to North Carolina's military bases, underscores his commitment to critical issues. Throughout his career, Senator Budd emphasizes finding common ground through respectful discourse, exemplifying the spirit of collaboration and effective governance.
