Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
He’s best known as the architect of the GOP’s Contract With America. Newt Gingrich was Time Magazine’s Man of the Year in 1995 and then stunned many with his resignation from Congress in 1998. Five years after he renounced his role as Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich continues to be a man full of ideas and the passion to try to make them policy. He explains why reforming healthcare and reigning in The Patriot Act top his list.
