Yes, my friends, FESTIVUS is back! 

A Festivus for the rest of us. 

And so is our annual Festivus special!

With the man himself! 

The legend. The iconic actor who played George Constanza on Seinfeld–friend of this show—conscience for America—and a very proud new grandfather! The American treasure–and American icon: Jason Alexander (@IJasonAlexander)!

Every guest on this show has shaped America’s past, is impacting America’s present, and is driving America’s future. And Jason continues to help us understand ourselves, our past, and our future. A future that has a whole new perspective for him with the recent birth of his first grandchild. 

 He is of course best known for his role as George Costanza in maybe the greatest television series of all time, Seinfeld. He was nominated for seven Primetime Emmy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. He won a Tony Award. And he’s a truly inspiring, fascinating and entertaining man. 

 He’s defined American culture and entertainment for decades. And, all the while, he’s been deeply committed to his craft—to his family—and to his country. He’s raised money for charities. He’s fought for causes and candidates. And when his sister was struck with a devastating disease, he fought for her–and for others like her facing the same terrible disease. 

 If you’ve watched him, you love him. And you may feel like you know him. But you really don’t. In this episode, you’ll learn that the man behind the characters is even more amazing. And you’ll love him, respect him, and admire him even more. Just like the last two times he’s joined us. It’s the perfect holiday conversation. For whatever holiday you celebrate.

Every episode of Independent Americans hosted by author, activist and social entrepreneur Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) is the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It’s content for the 50% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent. Always with a unique focus on national security, foreign affairs and military and veterans issues. This is another pod to help you stay vigilant. Because vigilance is the price of democracy. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans will continue to be your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.
