Recently on Tying it Together, host Tim Boyum discussed what had been a whirlwind of a month in politics with North Carolina Democratic Party Chair Anderson Clayton.

On this week’s podcast, it’s Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley’s turn. Whatley, though a former N.C. GOP chair, is not to be confused with Clayton’s counterpart, Jason Simmons.

Whatley provides a behind-the-scenes look at an eventful political summer, including an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, President Biden’s withdrawal from the race, the contrasting national and state leadership roles and more.
