What does a typical week look like for a United States Congressman? In this episode of Behind the Mic with MAB, Amanda Fontaine goes beyond politics to get to know the person behind the title.

Congressman Michael Guest shares what life is really like balancing the demands of serving Mississippi in Washington while staying connected to home and family. He reflects on his path from prosecutor to Congress, what a typical week in his life actually looks like, and how he manages the constant travel, committee work, and responsibilities that come with representing Mississippi’s Third Congressional District.

Amanda also dives into one of the more unexpected chapters of his career, his work as a district attorney that was featured on Forensic Files. Congressman Guest discusses the case, the experience of seeing it portrayed on national television, and how his years in the courtroom continue to influence the way he approaches public service today.

This conversation isn’t about political talking points. It’s about the experiences, stories, and moments that have shaped one of Mississippi’s most recognizable public servants, giving listeners a rare behind the scenes look at the man behind the office.
