IA State Senator Matt Blake

from Pints & Diplomacy Hosted by Pints & Diplomacy

From 4th of July Parade to the State Senate—and even deployments overseas—Matt Blake has a story worth hearing. In this episode of Pints & Diplomacy, we start with our Buzzed Briefings and our wildly competitive Supreme Court of Lawyers draft, then dive into a conversation with the newly elected Iowa State Senator representing District 22. We talk about service, leadership, and the surprising moments that shaped his journey. Politics, pints, and plenty of stories—this one’s got it all.
