This episode features a revealing interview with Jennifer Carroll, the first black woman to serve as Florida’s lieutenant governor before stepping down amid an Internet gambling scandal. Carroll tells all including run-ins with the press and behind-the-scenes power struggles with Governor Rick Scott’s former Chiefs of Staff Adam Hollingsworth and Steve MacNamara that forced her to resign.

As Lt. Gov. Carlos Lopez-Cantera prepares to announce whether he plans to ditch the post and run for U.S. Senate, Republican strategist Mac Stipanovich who served as chief of staff under Gov. Bob Martinez, explains the true role of the state’s second in command and why some LGs are busier than others.
