Listen "The 2000 DNC: "Mambo No. 5""
Episode Synopsis
Happy convention week! Whether you prefer your conventions in-person, online or in podcast form, Take A 20 has you covered. In this week’s episode, we look back at the 2000 Democratic National Convention, which took place in Los Angeles and got really weird, really fast. Mark Davidson and Josh Green are joined by Staff Director of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Jeff Carroll, who explains what exactly happens at a convention and helps break down all the major moments from 2000, including Al Gore’s open mouth kiss and Rage Against the Machine’s open air concert that turned into a riot. As you might expect from a political discussion, things get heated when the gentlemen debate the greatest convention city ever (hint: it’s Boston) and the best New Jersey cover band to play at a convention party.
