With Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshears in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2021 with Andy Slavitt.

As vaccine distribution continues to ramp up around the country, Andy calls up Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear to understand how it’s all working on the ground in a state like Kentucky. Listeners have a chance to get “in the bubble” with Andy and Governor Beshear to hear their candid conversation about leading through this challenging moment, as well as how best to support communities as we work together to end the pandemic. Dr. Lisa is joined by Cara McNulty of Aetna and CVSHealth to talk tactics for reaching people in communities for their health care needs.

Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt and Instagram @andyslavitt. Dr. Lisa is on Twitter @askdrfitz.

With Gov. Tim Walz in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2023 with Andy Slavitt.

As fringe Republicans drive the agenda in Congress, Andy turns to the hope found in many states through newly elected and reelected governors. Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz joins to discuss how he was able to bridge the rural-urban divide, first representing a district that voted for Trump and then winning statewide election in a purple state. Can we govern our country, states, and localities in ways that resist extreme elements and get things done? Tim offers his path forward.

Keep up with Andy on Twitter and Post @ASlavitt.

Today, we're dropping into your feed to share a conversation with Dr. Crag Spencer, a past guest on In The Bubble, from our sister podcast Last Day. Craig has been on the frontlines of fighting infectious diseases long before COVID-19. Now, nearly four years after COVID made its way to the United States, Craig sits down with Last Day host Stephanie Wittels-Wachs to reflect on where we are today — and how much further we have to go.

This series is presented by the Marguerite Casey Foundation. MCF supports leaders who work to shift the balance of power in their communities toward working people and families, and who have the vision and capacity for building a truly representative economy.
