Today: Jordan Johnson, who ran for - and won - his seat as District 1 commissioner when he was 26 years old, is Augusta's youngest commissioner. He talks to us about the current state of Augusta politics, what his agenda is, how the "insiders" are addressing local issues, and we also discuss the quiet successes that the commission has had that you may have never heard of. From blight to poverty to the James Brown Arena to the Riverfront, this episode has it all. Oh and one last thing? We published this on his birthday! Happy Birthday Jordan!
