John Locke Foundation: How the North Carolina think tank got its start

On this week’s episode, longtime political guru John Hood joins host Tim Boyum to discuss the early days of launching one of North Carolina’s first think tanks, and the impact all think tanks have in today’s political world. 

For over two decades, Hood directed the John Locke Foundation and presently authors a nationally syndicated newspaper column for over 50 newspapers. Recently, he’s written seven books, including a historical-fantasy novel. 

The pair also have a thorough conversation about redistricting and its influence stemming from the 2020 Census, and the need for non-governmental organizations like John Locke Foundation.
