In this episode of the Yossi Schmidt Show, Matt Laslo discusses his extensive career covering Congress since 2006. With contributions to Wired Magazine, Playboy, Rolling Stone, and Vice, Matt elaborates on his current endeavor, AskAPol, which aims to bridge the gap between politicians and the public through direct, unfiltered Q&A sessions. The conversation dives deep into the mistrust of mainstream media, the importance of independent journalism, and the pressing UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) issue involving whistleblower David Grush's claims. Matt emphasizes the need for transparency and the role of Congress in addressing these hidden special access programs. The discussion also touches on the throttling of independent media on platforms like Twitter and the potential changes in congressional oversight on UAPs.
