About this episode
Cenk Uygur’s rise from immigrant kid and unhappy lawyer to the creator of The Young Turks, which he built from his living room into an independent media network is the epitome of the ‘American Dream’.
Uygur reflects on the evolution of his politics, how Donald Trump has changed things forever, the current state of the Democratic Party, and why he believes the left has lost its way. He also explains how he can openly support Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna while still having Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene guest on TYT, and opens up about his nephew Hasan Piker, the controversy surrounding him, and the very personal art of disagreeing without hating each other.
