Amazing Arizonans: Ex-Congressman John Shadegg shares state history knowledge

This episode of Amazing Arizonans is about Arizona history.

Former Congressman John Shadegg sits down with me to talk about growing up in Arizona with a father who was involved in political campaigns that shaped Maricopa County.

We discuss his time in the U.S. House and his decision to leave. He was also the special master that looked into the audit of Maricopa County’s handling of the 2020 election and the audit by the state.

His knowledge of Arizona history is remarkable. I hope you enjoy the conversation.
