On the episode of “Tying It Together with Tim Boyum,” we tackle the much-maligned profession of lobbying in politics.

It is ranked near the bottom of trusted professions, but what if we told you they were vital and most of them are actually trustworthy?

This week, North Carolina lobbyists Joe Stewart and Brian Lewis pull back the curtain on an often misunderstood part of the political system. They share the best and worst of times from the money trail to demanding clients and the art of convincing lawmakers to support their position.
