Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! In this episode, we explore the political journey of Bob Barr following his high-profile role as a House manager during President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial.

Once a staunch conservative Republican, Barr’s career took a series of surprising turns — from continuing his tenure in Congress to eventually becoming the Libertarian Party’s 2008 presidential nominee.

We trace his path through post-impeachment politics, his advocacy for civil liberties, and the ideological shift that redefined his public persona. Tune in for a look at one of the more complex and controversial figures of late 20th-century American politics.
