Idiotville #126: Interview with Kristy Gnibus - Candidate for PA-16th Congressional District
Show Notes

Marty, Brent, and Ted Brogan are joined in-studio by candidate for the PA-16th Congressional District, Kristy Gnibus


Kristy talks about her life, including her diagnosis of cancer at the age of 20, and how that affected her at that age and how things changed for her, and how her insurance has changed through the years. This has driven her to run for office and she explains how!


She also explores the ins and outs of campaigning in a COVID world, and how she made the pivot from an old-school door-to-door style run to a mostly social media style campaign, as well as addressing her busy lifestyle, and things that she would attempt to do in a freshman term. These things include more than just re-naming buildings and agreeing with the sitting president on social meida.


Kristy also talks to us about how 2018's "Year of the Woman" in the House and Senate influenced her run for White Mike's seat and how she's handled some comments from people who've said particularly nasty things to and about her.

We wrap up the show with some rapid fire questions!

***Disclaimer: we all made donations to the Gnibus campaign before this interview, but that did not influence the candidate coming on our show in any way.***

The Beer Segment: Psuedo Sue single hopped IPA from Toppling Goliath Brewing Co. This is a different one, a lighter IBU, but a drinkable beer. Kristy lets us know how she got into IPAs and craft beers, and how she changed her tastes over time. We gave this a 3.5/5
